About this course

Stafford Castle Golf Club occupies elevated ground near the ruins of Stafford Castle in the West Midlands, offering parkland golf across rolling Staffordshire terrain. The course layout takes advantage of natural contours and mature tree-lined fairways typical of English inland courses developed in the mid-to-late twentieth century. The alternate tees provide varied playing lengths and angles, allowing the course to present different challenges from the same routing. The setting combines open parkland with wooded sections, and the higher ground provides views across the surrounding countryside and toward the medieval castle ruins that give the club its name. The design incorporates natural elevation changes that influence club selection and shot strategy, particularly on approach play where uphill and downhill lies are common. Castle Golf & Leisure operates the facility with an emphasis on accessibility for members and visitors alike. The club serves the local Stafford golfing community and accommodates societies and casual rounds. The alternate tee system allows the course to be played at different yardages suited to varying skill levels, a practical feature for a members' club that hosts regular competitions and social golf throughout the season.
