The Hoebridge
The outstanding 18 hole Hoebridge Course was designed by former Ryder Cup captain and golf legend John Jacobs.
Beautifully laid out in picturesque countryside, the golfing challenge of this high quality golf course is every bit as enjoyable as the sensational views over the Surrey Downs.
Look out for the 5th hole, as it requires you to think hard about what to do, with the second shot of the dogleg par 4 being played to a sloped green protected by tall fir trees. Enjoy the view from the green – it’s breathtaking.
Other outstanding holes on this par 72 course include the 7th, where a poor second shot could leave you in a trouble in a deep chasm just short of the green, while the par 5 17th is guaranteed to test your mettle.

A Guide around the Hoebridge Course
Hole 1
Hole 2
This short par 3 looks an easy target but miss the green and you can find yourself in trouble to the left in the trees or long rough to the right.
The green is deceptively long so club choice is essential.
Hole 3
Another tough Par 5 that dog legs round to the left and with bunkers marshalling the fairway it is essential to hit a good drive.
Trees surround the green left, right and past the green and a bunker short right which makes it difficult to hit the green.
Hole 4
Stroke index 1, this proves a long par 4 up the hill with a tight fairway.
The green slopes from back to front meaning you want to try and keep your approach short of the hole.
Hole 5
A very deceptive tee shot with a big drop off the tee which rises back up towards the green round to the right.
A large tree blocks the right half of the green making it tough to find the target.
Hole 6
Severely downhill so club choice is essential with bunkers short left and right.
The green has 2 levels sloping from back to front making this a tricky hole.
Hole 7
A blind tee shot up the hill with a slope running away off to the left and a wall of trees to the right.

A tight tee shot with a fairway that slopes slightly from right to left.
A small 2 tier green sloping from back right to front left it is essential to find the correct part of the green.

Finishing the front 9 as you started a long par 5 with a fairly open tee shot with 2 bunkers to avoid. Towards the green the hole bends slightly towards the right and having to avoid the trees to the right.
Hole 10
A short par 4 with a wide open fairway which turns towards the right.
The green is protected by a small bunker short right and slopes from back to front.
