About this course

Gerrards Cross Golf Club sits in the Buckinghamshire commuter belt northwest of London, occupying parkland terrain characteristic of the Chilterns fringe. Bill Pedlar designed the course, which opened in the early 1920s and reflects the straightforward parkland style common to courses laid out in that era for suburban membership clubs. The layout works through mature woodland and gently rolling ground, with tree-lined fairways and modest elevation changes that add variety without dramatic contours. The course measures just over 6,000 yards from the back tees, a compact length by modern standards but typical of inland courses designed for members rather than championship play. Pedlar routed the holes to make use of the natural tree cover and modest topography, creating a layout that rewards accuracy over distance. Several holes play through narrow corridors of mature oak and beech, while others open onto broader fairways with strategic bunkering around greens. Gerrards Cross serves a local membership drawn largely from the surrounding towns and villages of south Buckinghamshire. The club maintains traditional members' club character, with a focus on regular club competitions and social golf rather than tournament hosting. The course offers a pleasant parkland round in a well-wooded setting, representative of the many solid members' courses established in the Home Counties during the interwar period to serve the expanding suburban population around London.
