Thorpe Hall Golf Club

Despite being located just outside Southend-on-Sea, the course at Thorpe Hall Golf Club has not been laid out in a links style. On the contrary, it is set upon some truly luscious parkland turf that is quite springy in places, and so can add a few vital extra yards onto your drives. We say 'vital' because there are plenty of long holes - especially the par-4s - that require that little extra bit of power to leave you with good birdie opportunities.

Every shot in your bag will be well tested so take the time to consider your club carefully and perhaps even spend a little while at the practice area before you tee off, just to get you warmed up for the challenges that lie ahead.
