| One of the many tributes to the
quality of Ipswich Golf Club
"It is a great club.
Unlike a lot of other
clubs it is extremely
friendly, and everyone
is welcome. It has an
excellent balance of the
old and the new, maintaining
golfing traditions, whereas
at the same time using
new techniques... You
can find all aspects of
golf on the one course,
and the surroundings and
wildlife are fantastic.
The nine-hole
course also offers an
excellent game and great
value for money. Both
courses are extremely
well-kept."
- an extract from
the comments of Ben
Powell, writing in Golf
Today online magazine,
just one of the many
testimonials in praise
of the qualities of
Ipswich Golf Club over
the years.
Ipswich Golf Club
was first established
in 1895 and the present
day course at Purdis
Heath - designed by
the legendary James
Braid - was officially
opened in 1928. The
nine-hole course was
added 40 years later,
in 1968.
It is the only golf
club to have twice won
a national award for
its work on preserving
the area's natural heathland
habitat and wildlife
- making it a golfing
gem in an environmental
haven.
Ipswich Golf Club
welcomes individual
visitors and societies
and can offer excellent
catering facilities
and a fully-stocked
PGA professional's shop
as well as 27 top-quality
holes of golf.
