Royal Ashdown Forest, founded in December 1888, is one of the longest established golf clubs in Sussex, the Old Course having been started in January 1889 and completed, amazingly, in May just five months later.

The course is still distinguished by its completely natural layout using only the characteristic contours of the land and the indigenous hazards of the forest to snare a wayward shot.

The West Course, although somewhat shorter and not quite as venerable, is equally well defended by natural characteristics.

Both courses will test any golfer's ability to the full, except the need to play from a bunker, as there are none.
