Sandford Springs Golf Club makes great use of its enviable location to offer a trio of superb 9-hole courses – The Park, The Wood and The Lakes – all are distinctly different and provide great enjoyment.
Located between Basingstoke and Newbury, the course was laid out by Hawtree & Son (founder members of the British Institute of Golf Course Architects). The original 18-hole were officially opened by Sir Nick Faldo and Bernard Gallagher OBE in 1989, the final 9-holes were finished in the summer of 1991.
The signature hole is the 9th hole on The Park Course – a short downhill par-4 which requires an accurate long iron from the tee followed by a good approach to a putting surface which is guarded by two lakes. However it is possible for the long hitters to carry the 270 yards over water!
The Woods Course
With its mature trees creating a naturally scuplted challenge, accuracy is required to negotiate the avenues of The Woods, arguably the most difficult of Sandford Springs' three nines.
The Park Course
Strategy, placement and ball-striking are all examined fully on the Park, which, upon climbing to its highest levels, is commonly buffeted by strong prevailing winds that help make it more of a links test.
The Lakes Course
The water is everywhere at The Lakes! The opening four holes provide a tough start to any round - be it your initial induction or when commencing the back nine.

Great venue, well looked after, the long wet season meant the courses were a bit boggy in places but playable, greens had not suffered.
Overall not a bad weekend at all.
8 / 10
Three excellent 9 holes courses. Hotel comfortable and food a good standard.
Another great trip arranged by YGT
8 / 10
Excellent service, superb staff and very good rooms, the only negative point being the width of the single beds (narrow for most reasonably built men). The breakfast was very good and the evening meals, whilst very well presented, were very limited in choice but overall, my group was very impressed.
10 / 10
Top quality hotel with large and quiet rooms. The food was also to a high standard.
8 / 10
Clean large comfortable rooms. Hotel would have scored five stars if after golf facilities were more available. Only one small snooker/pool table to entertain our group throughout the evenings.
Swimming pool would be a great investment for this venue.

The hotel upgraded me and my room mate to a suite - always the best way to treat the organiser! This was luxurious, and feedback from others in our group was also very good. Very pleasant bar area with good value food.

8 / 10
Rooms, service and quality of food excellent. However I didn't pick up in the small print only a 2 course meal. Had to have starter & main and pay extra £5 for a dessert. Also the restaurant was at the clubhouse. Fine if a dry evening, not so good if cold and raining.
10 / 10
The hotel is ideal for a short golf break. The rooms were large, well appointed and very smart - no bath but the shower was excellent. There is a small gym but no other facilities. The evening meal was super and extremely well organised with no one having to wait very long for their meal and the quality of the food and snacks was excellent.

This was an absolute pleasure, beautifully appointed rooms, clean& tidy with a fantastic bed and shower room. We all slept very well here.
The food was great, service good and value for money.
Drinks were reasonably priced too.
The sympathetic new architecture perfectly compliments the existing old clock house building creating a great vista. The overall feeling was very relaxing.

This was my fourth visit to Sandford Springs,this time with a party of forty. I was very nervous of keeping that many happy. Not a problem. No one could fine ant faults to speak of. Food,rooms,staff were all rated very highly. The courses,3x9holes, were also highly recommended by both low and high handicappers.
One gentlemen said he go as far as to say it was his most enjoyable holiday ever!

Apart from the weather on the final day,
which is obviously out of everyone's control, our trip to Sanford
Springs was a great success.
Our group consists of a wide range of
handicaps, from single figures to mid twenties, but all were catered for with
three 9 hole loops, each with different characteristics. The condition of all
three courses was excellent, with undulating fairways and greens to test any
level of golfer.
The staff throughout the complex were very welcoming and helpful, providing
polite and quality service during our stay.
The only thing lacking was thelack of additional leisure facilities, such
as swimming pool, sauna and in the bar area, pool/snooker table etc...
The hotel was exceptionally clean and the rooms were very well equipped. The
food was excellent too, with a varied choice for both the evening meal and the
breakfast.
Overall the consensus of the whole group was that this is a great venue and one
we would all happily return to at some point in the future.
Finally, I would like to thank you and YGT for the professional approach to
helping people like myself in organising golf trips for groups of varying
abilities and making the experience as easy as possible.
