Painswick Golf Club

Painswick Golf Course is not a long one, but there are special difficulties to compensate for this lack. The long hitter may urge that the opportunities for second shots (with woods) are very limited. But golf is not all "big hitting". No two holes at Painswick are exactly alike. All are interesting in one way or another; each has its own characteristics and individuality.

There is ample scope for finesse and exploitation of the finer shots. The wily tactician comes into his own. Knowledge of "the lie of the land" is all important, especially at the "blind" holes and where a downward-sloping fairway calls for the exercise of judgment and restraint - particularly when winter winds are blowing or summer heats have so hardened the surface that the ball develops extraordinary running powers.

The Clubhouse is large and comfortable. It nestles in the hills above Painswick village, and has the most beautiful views of the Cotswolds in the county. There are excellent changing and shower facilities. You can relax in comfort in the lounge area, take in the breathtaking panoramic views, and enjoy a drink and a bar snack after tackling the challenges of the course.
