Formed in 1891 and commemorated in George Houghton’s remarkable book “The First Hundred Years”, our golf club is the oldest in Dorset. Situated in an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’, Bridport & West Dorset is a fantastic location to play golf. Running alongside the stunning Chesil Beach being part of the world-famous Jurassic Coast, this superbly designed Championship course is a mix of links and cliff-top terrain with the latter providing breath-taking views across Lyme Bay to the West and to Portland Bill in the East. To the North there are views across the rolling Hardy countryside that is truly ‘Far from the Madding Crowd”. Recently the Club’s location prominently featured in the successful ITV drama series ‘Broadchurch’.
The course is one of the most exhilarating and challenging found on the South coast of England. It is also ideal holiday golf - not too severe, with quite generous fairways but the wind, of course, can blow with a vengeance.
