Two championship golf courses are often referred to as the ??Jewels in the Crown̍ of the family businesses and are perfect for golf breaks, golf days, society golf and corporate entertaining. They were created in the early '70s in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and named after famous local artists, Thomas Gainsborough and John Constable. Both courses are well-established with lakes, streams and mature woodland. The designs skilfully incorporate the natural beauty of the land and, with conservation a priority, over 60,000 trees have been planted. The parkland golf course was established in 1972.
Gainsborough
The Gainsborough course measures over 7,000 yards with a Par of 71. The beautifully undulating terrain and four substantial lakes challenge the skills of golfers of all abilities. The 10th requires a drive and second shot over the same lake, when played from the back tee, and has been voted one of the most outstanding holes in East Anglia by the Professional Golf Association (PGA).
- Number of holes: 18
- Par: 71
- Yardage: 6345
Constable
The Constable course is also very picturesque, set amongst wooded plantations with several natural water hazards in glorious peaceful countryside. It measures 6,544 yards with a Par of 72, and, as with the Gainsborough, the final hole presents a formidable drive over one of the large lakes, to a plateau green with the clubhouse beckoning beyond.
