Stinchcombe Hill Golf Club - Dursley - 7.6 miles
In 1939 Stinchcombe Hill Golf Club celebrated it's Golden Jubilee having been started by a small band of enthusiasts who in the autumn of 1889, "resolved to introduce the Royal and Ancient game to this part of England".Stinchcombe Hill was rated by the late Henry Longhurst as being among the top most scenic courses in Europe. Gently undulating fairways add an additional interest to almost every shot you play. Whatever the weather, the course challenges the lower as well as the higher handicap player despite a scratch par 68.

Chipping Sodbury Golf Club - Bristol - 13.8 miles
12 miles North East of Bristol (South West England), the course is situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty at the foot of the Cotswold hills and adjacent to the historic, characterful 17th century market town of Chipping Sodbury. This Fred Hawtree designed parkland course was opened in 1971. Subsequent maturing, development and care have given a superb course which presents a challenge to all levels of golfer. Water hazards are a feature on many holes and the greens, though large, play smaller than their size, as many of them are raised slightly from the surrounding terrain.
