Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee An excellent opening hole: the downhill tee shot invites a long drive
From The Fairway over the path that wanders across the fairway. Stray left and trees await and the bunker at the front left of
On The Green the green comes into play. A stately Oak overhangs to the left making the ideal shot to the green a draw to reach a back pin position.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee An accurate drive up the right side opens up a chance to attack the green in two.
From The Fairway Miss the fairway and you have to plot a route around the fairway bunkers short of the green.
On The Green The green runs off to the right where a deep bunker lurks. Go long and you are faced with a treacherous chip back down a green sloping sharply from back to front.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee This dog-leg left hole starts with a testing ‘blind’ tee shot over immaculately trimmed hedges.
From The Fairway
On The Green Don't be tempted into cutting the corner too much as trees await. The long, narrow green nestles into the trees and is protected by three bunkers.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee A testing drive tempts you to fly the bunker on the right as
From The Fairway the fairway slopes from right to left and set-up a chance to reach the green in two shots.
On The Green The green slopes from right to left but a cunningly placed dip in front of the green, and a bunker front left, make judgement tricky.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee The hole plays slightly downhill, but it is the cross bunker 30 yards short of
From The Fairway the green that causes confusion and makes it easy to end up short of the green.
On The Green Overcompensate and a bunker at the back left comes into play. The putting surface also holds subtle prO-Blems - it is not as flat as it first appears!
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee The ideal route is a soft fade started towards the bunker which will leave a medium iron to the green.
From The Fairway Avoiding the fairway bunker is strongly advised as the water hazard
On The Green encroaches from the left hand side approach making for a long and difficult shot to reach the green.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee Dyrham Park’s signature hole is a classic “risk and reward” test.
From The Fairway 200 yards of lake lays between the tee and the fairway on the direct line to the green.
On The Green Take this bold route and you are rewarded by a short pitch shot. Play short and right off the tee and you have to carry a nasty bunker at the front right of a raised green that slopes away from you.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee A short par three with a big round green - easy
From The Fairway . A beautiful big oak tree dominates the front right of the green, but it is the deep bunker below it that causes the real trouble. It catches anything slightly under-hit. Another bunker at the front left means the right club choice is essential.

Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee A fabulous right-to-left dog-leg that climbs the hill back towards the Clubhouse.
From The Fairway Big hitters will need a touch of draw to avoid running through the fairway at the corner of the dog-leg and into the cleverly positioned deep bunker.
On The Green The second shot is to a raised green. The green slopes sharply from back right to front left. A par four here and you deserve a drink from the Halfway Hut.
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee Drive up to the corner of the dog-leg with a long iron or drive very tight
From The Fairway down the left side with a touch of fade of this tree-lined fairway.
On The Green The green slopes from back to front making it hard to get your ball back to the flag.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee Club selection is tricky - too little club could see you flirting with the large lake that protects the green.
From The Fairway
On The Green Go long and you are in danger of hitting over the green and running down the steep banking at the back leaving a very difficult chip and putt for par. A short hole with huge character that has been described visually as "Augusta like" - enough said!
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee Smashing a long drive down the left side of
From The Fairway the fairway opens up the possibility of reaching this dog-leg par five in two. However,
On The Green a large bunker cuts across from the right a few yards in front of the putting surface, so it is often better to play the hole as a proper “three-shotter”. Either way, get your strategy right and a birdie chance is yours.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee From the tee, players must avoid the fairway bunker.
From The Fairway This should be followed by a controlled second shot landing short of the water which will leave a short iron shot to
On The Green the green. Water protecting the green at the front, and to the left, must be avoided so club selection and accuracy are key throughout this spectacular par five hole.
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee Over a lily-fringed pond and through a narrow chute of trees,
From The Fairway the tee shot is as intimidating as it is picturesque. Club selection is tricky with a step up at the front of
On The Green the green and a deep bunker through the back left. Two more bunkers protect the front left and right. The small green slopes from back to front so can hold a well-struck approach, but is tough to putt on.
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee A lovely par four that requires thought on the tee.
From The Fairway A pond stretches across the fairway about 40 yards round the dog-leg right at about 260 yards.
On The Green The second shot needs to avoid deep bunkers either side of the green and must avoid the thick bushes over the back right.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Aim your tee shot up the right side of a fairway that slopes down to the trees on the left.
On The Green Then it’s a pitch onto a green lined by a stream all along the left and at the back. Go in the bunker at the front right and you are faced with splashing out towards the water.
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee A straight hole climbing up to a sloping green flanked by oak trees and
From The Fairway with large amphitheatre landscaping around the rear of the green. The tee shot is to clear the cross-bunker,
On The Green a carry of 230 yards, but get over and you are left with a fairly straightforward short-iron. Lay-up and you need to strike a good mid-iron that avoids the pot bunkers on the right.
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee A beautiful finishing hole played uphill to the gleaming Palladian Clubhouse.
From The Fairway Hitting the fairway is essential as a cross bunker and two ditches cut off the fairway 65 yards short of the green,
On The Green making it impossible to chase anything up to the green from the trees. Accuracy is essential to a narrow green surrounded by trees and three bunkers. The green slopes dramatically from back to front, so a safe two-putt is never guaranteed.
