Westhill Golf Club

Westhill Golf Club sits in the Surrey countryside, a parkland course designed by Charlie Lawrie. The club occupies gently rolling terrain characteristic of the region, with mature woodland framing many holes and providing definition to the routing. Lawrie, a respected course architect active in the mid-twentieth century, created a layout that works with the natural contours of the land, incorporating elevation changes and tree-lined corridors that require thoughtful navigation. The course features a mix of doglegs and straightaway holes, with strategic bunkering that rewards accurate placement over pure distance. Several holes play across or along slopes, creating uneven lies and testing a player's ability to shape shots and manage trajectory. Water comes into play on select holes, adding variety to the challenge. The greens are typically well-defended and require careful approach work, reflecting the design principles of Lawrie's era. Westhill serves a local membership and maintains the traditions of a members' club, with a focus on regular play and club competitions. The clubhouse provides the social center for the membership, with dining facilities that support the club's calendar of events. The course offers a solid test of golf within the Surrey parkland tradition, balancing challenge with playability for golfers of varying abilities.
