Bob Sandow

Bob Sandow has developed a portfolio of parkland-style courses across England and Ireland, with particular concentration in the English Midlands. His designs include the International and Lenches layouts at The Vale Golf & Country Club in Worcestershire, along with nearby Bransford, Bank House, and Leominster courses—all situated in the counties of Worcestershire and Herefordshire. Beyond England, Sandow designed Summerhill in County Meath, Ireland, and Bowood Park in Cornwall.

His work reflects a practical approach to course design suited to the rolling countryside of these regions, where strategic shot values and playability serve club golfers across varying skill levels. The concentration of his courses in Worcestershire suggests strong regional ties and knowledge of the local terrain.

While detailed biographical information remains limited, Sandow's body of work demonstrates consistent activity in British and Irish golf course architecture, contributing to the fabric of regional club golf.
