Golf was first introduced to Woodhall Spa in 1890. However, the course had to be moved and in 1902 local landowner and prominent member, Stafford Vere Hotchkin, offered a sandy tract of land for the building of an 18 hole course (this is the site where the course remains today). Harry Vardon was employed to design the course and he visited Woodhall Spa on 24th January 1903. The course was formally opened for play on 24th April 1905.

I have played here for the last eight years - the best inland links course in the UK !
