Welcome to the Charnwood Forest Golf Club web site. This heathland
course was designed by that famous man of Fife,
golfer and architect, James Braid. The club was founded some years
before Braid substantially re-modelled the course and many of our
winter greens are those of the original 19th century venue. Whatever
time of year you play Charnwood you will discover a truly mature and
well-kept course.
The 18 tees of this little gem of a 9-holer offer variety of yardage,
shape, and elevation thus requiring the golfer to pay close attention
during both circuits. Panoramic views of the stunning Leicestershire
countryside are available at every turn and often play is only
delayed through the pure joy of the scenery.

Being heathland the course is well-drained and remains open when many
other courses in the county are forced to close.
The clubhouse sits neatly next to the final green with bar, dining
room, and terrace available to relax and enjoy a drink, snack, or meal.
Members and clubhouse staff always offer a warm welcome for
newcomers, societies, and visitors alike.
Although located in a rural setting the course is easy to find, and
surprisingly is within 10 minutes drive of the M1 motorway. We hope
to welcome you at our lovely course, very soon.
