Saffron Walden Golf Club

Saffron Walden Golf Club is a private members’ club which was established in 1919 as a nine hole course and changed to an eighteen hole course in 1975. It is one of the finest parkland golf courses in East Anglia with wonderful views over the town of Saffron Walden and Audley End House. Many of the holes are dominated by the beautiful St Mary’s Parish church which is one of the largest in Essex and one of the most ornate. Indeed its 193 ft pinnacle spire is a local landmark.

The course itself is situated in the grounds of Audley End Park which was landscaped from 1763 by Capability Brown. From the course there are stunning views over Audley End House and grounds which are now cared for by English Heritage. On the course you will also find Lady Portsmouth’s column which was designed by Robert Adam and is dedicated to her memory.

Saffron Walden is a challenging course owing to the sudden changes in elevation, undulation and cunningly placed trees. One thing you can be sure of - you will always receive a very warm welcome!
