Who is Southwell Racecourse and Golf Course?

One of only six all-weather racecourse tracks in the UK, Southwell has its own unique charm and character, making it one of the premier sporting venues in the East Midlands. We are unique in that it’s the only racecourse in the UK with a fibresand surface. With racing on both All-Weather and Turf tracks taking place throughout the year, we are one of the country's busiest racecourses. 

Established in 1993, Southwell Golf Club has matured into a course that presents a stiff challenge to golfers of all abilities. The course has two contrasting nine holes. The Front 9 sits within Southwell Racecourse and is characterised by a large number of water hazards. The 7th hole, a 138 yards par 3 with an island green is Southwell’s signature hole and is our own equivalent of Sawgrass.

The Back 9 offers a completely different challenge and the tree-lined fairways place an emphasis on accuracy from the tee. Whilst the holes are not overly long and can offer some birdie opportunities, the narrow fairways and small greens can easily result in dropped shots so finding the fairways is essential.

Southwell Golf Club has an excellent reputation for its friendly atmosphere and offers a warm welcome to visiting golfers.
