Willingdon Golf Club is situated in a bowl at the foot of the South Downs. Like many courses in the area, the foundation is on chalk downland so naturally benefits form excellent drainage meaning the course is usually in good condition all year round. Sitting in the bowl, its also protect from the harsher weather meaning you can usually count on getting your round in. Designed by Dr Alister MacKenzie the course has a unique layout meaning you can tee off from either the 1st, 9th or 15th which are all next to the clubhouse. Each hole also has its own memorable features, none more so than the course's signature 5th hole, which has a row of railway sleepers guarding the green.
