The west course, otherwise known as the Burma Road was opened in 1926 and is probably best known for hosting The World Matchplay Championships.

It is without doubt one of England’s finest courses and held in the highest regard by the games greatest. It is a long course of tightly bordered fairways that snakes through a heavily wooded estate – for the amateurs it sometimes seems a long way round but the opportunity to have trodden the same fairways and greens as the stars is reward enough.

There are two further 18-hole courses on this exclusive estate being the East course, which was actually the first course built and the Edinburgh Course.
