Experience Championship Golf in Norfolk
Barnham Broom boasts two distinct 18-hole courses, each offering unique challenges and scenic beauty.
The Valley Course
Designed by renowned architect Frank Pennink and opened in 1977, the Valley Course meanders through the River Yare valley. This par-72 course spans 6,483 yards and is celebrated for its natural contours, strategic water hazards, and mature woodland, providing a test for golfers of all levels. Its reputation is further solidified by hosting European PGA Satellite Tour events and being a fixture on the Norfolk Open rota.
The Hill Course
Introduced in 1989 and crafted by Donald Steel, the Hill Course offers a contrasting experience with its open parkland layout. At 6,588 yards and a par of 71, it features rolling fairways, panoramic views, and strategically placed bunkers, making it both accessible for higher handicappers and challenging for seasoned players.
Complementing the courses are extensive practice facilities, including a grass driving range, three full-length academy holes, a dedicated short game area, and a putting green, ensuring golfers can hone every aspect of their game.
