Foxhills - Bernard Hunt Course

Tee Time Availability for the next 10 days (choose different dates)

Description

Foxhills has three excellent courses offering very different tests. Our courses are a combination of parkland and heathland that is typical of the best layouts in this part of the world. Play our two 18-hole championship courses which have staged a number of prestigious tournaments, or hone your short game on our 9-hole Manor Course. Located on the beautiful, gently undulating and well-forested terrain of the Surrey-Berkshire border country, Foxhills offers some of the best golfing challenges and conditions you'll find anywhere in the UK.

The Bernard Hunt Course is named after Bernard Hunt, MBE, who still teaches at the club. He was the first head professional at Foxhills and served for 25 years. Bernard won 30 times on the European PGA Tour, played in the Ryder Cup 10 times, twice as Captain, and won the Tour's Order of Merit in 1961 and 1963.

Not surprisingly, the course that's named after him offers more than a few serious challenges for club golfers. The 10th hole, for instance, is a 445-yard par 4 that plays downhill initially and then sweeps uphill to a green protected by two bunkers in front of the putting surface. You have to keep your tee shot to the left of the fairway to have the best angle into a green which slopes wickedly from back right to front left. It is undoubtedly the most difficult hole on the inward nine and one where a par feels like a birdie. "It's a fantastically challenging hole", says Richard Summerscales, Head Professional at Foxhills. "It's demanding off the tee and then the green is hard to hit being very narrow."

Another real test can be found on the finishing hole, a dogleg of 446 yards. Somewhat unfairly, the members call it Cardiac Hill - but it's a truly great finishing hole, widely considered one of the most difficult in the country, as the tee shot must carry more than 200 yards to reach the narrow fairway. Unless you hit a monster tee shot, your approach shot will be partially blind up the hill from where, in the distance, you can see the spacious double green that's shared with the finishing hole of the Longcross Course.

When you arrive, check in at the Pro Shop. As well as providing golf carts, trolleys and merchandise, a team of PGA professionals is on-site to give lessons or help with other general enquiries. The newly refurbished visitors changing rooms provide the comforts of a world-class resort. Prior to your game, warm up on the driving range or on one of four putting greens. Out on the course, our Halfway Houses welcome you with 'tea and sympathy'.

Whether you're looking for a romantic break, a short getaway, an unforgettable wedding, or a modern conference venue; Foxhills offers outstanding facilities with extras you might not expect from a luxury hotel. Enjoy tennis on our floodlit courts; swim in our heated pool, play squash, work out in our state of the art fitness centre and pamper yourself in our luxury spa - or simply relax in our bars and restaurants.
