About this course
Cherry Downs, a fixture in Goodwood’s golfing landscape since 1962, offers a classic parkland experience shaped by the hands of renowned Canadian architect Robbie Robinson. The layout meanders through mature trees and rolling hills, demanding strategic play and rewarding accurate ball striking. Don't let its approachable yardage fool you - the subtly contoured greens and well-placed bunkers protect par and require a deft touch on and around the putting surfaces. Robinson, known for his thoughtful routing and emphasis on playability, crafted a course that remains enjoyable for all skill levels. While not on the radar of major championships, Cherry Downs enjoys a loyal following among local golfers, drawn to its challenging yet fair design. A vibrant and welcoming membership contributes to the club's enduring appeal. After a round, members often gather on the patio overlooking the 18th green, cementing Cherry Downs’ status as a community hub for those seeking camaraderie and accessible, quality golf in the heart of Goodwood.
