Painswick Golf Club is located close to Painswick, near Stroud, Gloucester and Cheltenham in the Cotswolds. It is of unique design, with an outstanding back drop to the Malvern Hills, Brecon Beacons and Cotswold Slad Valley.
Founded in 1891, the 18 hole ridge-top course has an out and back format. Fine views of the Severn Valley to the Malvern Hills, Brecon Beacons and Cotswold Slad Valley.
A short course that requires accuracy.
The course had been laid out in 1891 by David Brown of the Malvern Club. (Given the course he planned, it can be assumed that Mr. Brown had no connection with a certain firm of tractor manufacturers!). He had in fact been Open Champion in 1868 and his course was of 9 holes played in the opposite direction to the present plan.
Presently the club and course are open to everyone, from the novice golfer, the Sunday lunch seeker, to the accomplished player.
We may not be the biggest club, but we pride ourselves on a relaxed atmosphere that can be enjoyed by all.
