Maldon Golf Club

Set within just 50 acres between the Blackwater Navigation and the River Chelmer this is a real gem of a course that has been sympathetically crafted to make the most of its natural features.

One of the oldest in the Essex area, it was opened following a meeting by local dignitaries in 1891 who aimed to establish one of the finest golfing venues in existence, and it hasn’t looked back since.

At just over 6000 yards its not too long by today’s standards but with only three par-3s and a par of 71 you won’t find too many opportunities to bank a low score; this course will make you work hard to break you’re handicap.

In recent years the course has played host to a number of prestigious events, including the Regional Final of the National Nines Qualifying event, which should provide some indication of how good it really is.

After enjoying a round visitors are welcomed warmly to enjoy a pie, a pint and the views of the course from the comfort of the clubhouse.
