DESCRIPTION:

The Berkshire Golf Club, founded in 1928, is home to two of England’s finest heathland courses – the Red and Blue courses. Designed by Herbert Fowler, the club is famous for its natural beauty and technical challenges, with the Red Course boasting a unique combination of six par 3s, 4s, and 5s. The 18-hole courses are spread across nearly 200 acres of prime heathland, with gorse, heather, and towering pines adding to the strategic challenge.

Close to the M4 and just south of Windsor, the club has hosted numerous prestigious tournaments, including the English Amateur Championship. It’s a favourite for golfers who appreciate tradition and excellent design.

Great course...

I had the pleasure of playing at The Berkshire Golf Club back in April 2024 (before my back sidelined me for 5 months). Not only was it a fantastic course, but I also got to try out my new clubs.

A traditional members' club with a superbly manicured heathland course, this club is ranked among the Top 100 golf courses—and for good reason.

Perfect tee boxes, wide undulating fairways, and slick greens make it a golfer's paradise.

However, not only do you need an invitation to play here, but if you get one, it could cost as much as £155 for a round Monday to Friday and £220 on weekends.

Fortunately, I was there by invitation, but if you get the opportunity to play it, jump at the chance!

P.S. The new clubs worked a treat—I split 13 out of 14 fairways, though I haven’t used them since (as of September 2024).

Superb course!! A must play.

Played a match here yesterday and it was just superb. This is one of the most prestigious courses in the area. It has 2 courses the red and the blue. I played the blue with an opening par 3 of 210 yards!! In front of the clubhouse!! Landed the ball 20 ft from the hole!! pressure was off!! A fantastic course which is really challenging with some extremely long par 4s!! So well manicured around the course. great little halfway hut for refreshments and then a nice bar to have a post match drink.

Overall I would recommend playing this course and have it up near the top of your must play list. Will definitely be back to play it again.
