CAMS HALL ESTATE GOLF CLUB
🏴 Fareham, Hampshire, England
Designed by Peter Alliss


The Creek Course at Cams Hall Estate Golf Club occupies a distinctive waterside setting in Fareham, on the northern shore of Portsmouth Harbour. Designed by Peter Alliss, the former Ryder Cup player and longtime BBC commentator who turned to course architecture in partnership with Clive Clark and later Dave Thomas, the layout takes advantage of the estate's maritime location. The course sits on grounds that include the historic Cams Hall mansion, with several holes playing along or near the tidal creeks and inlets that define the property's southern boundary.
The routing makes strategic use of the water features and mature woodland that characterize the estate. The coastal holes present both visual appeal and tactical challenges, as wind off Portsmouth Harbour frequently influences club selection and shot shaping. Inland sections move through parkland terrain with established trees framing fairways. The course serves as one of two layouts at the facility, complementing the companion course and providing members and visitors with variety in their golf.
Cams Hall Estate functions as a members' club with visitor access, typical of many English golf facilities that balance private membership with green fee play. The setting near the Solent and within reach of Southampton and Portsmouth places the course in a region with substantial golf history, though the Creek Course itself operates primarily as a club-level layout rather than a tournament venue. The Peter Alliss design reflects the accessible, playable style that characterized much of his architectural work during the latter decades of the twentieth century.

I do not remember this course at all. I forgot my golf shoes so it’s getting a 6.2 at best.
