Overview
Located just outside of Birmingham, The Forest of Arden Country Club is the ideal location for those looking for a stay and play golf break in The Midlands. Boasting two golf courses on site including the highly acclaimed Arden course and an abundance of quality Hotel facilities this is a golf break suitable for all golfing groups and individuals.
Courses
Arden Course
Designed by Donald Steel, the Arden is the flagship golf course for the hotel, having held the British Masters and the English Open, as well as other European Tour Events. Golfing greats including Colin Montgomerie and Ian Woosnam have all laid claim to a tournament victory on this great course. The par 72 golf course measures 7,213 yards off the yellow tees, making it a test of length as well as accuracy. Mature trees line the fairways and a mixture of water hazards and bunkers threaten to put a black mark on your scorecard at any time, making this Forest of Arden golf course a truly rewarding experience for visitors that manage to conquer it.
Aylesford Course
Measuring in at only 5,801 yards, the Aylesford course may not have the reputation of the Arden Course, but it still makes for a tricky round of golf that will challenge even the more advanced golfers. The par 69 course uses its intricate design, including challenging water hazards and tough-to-read greens, to make accuracy an important trait to scoring low around at this Forest of Arden Golf Course.
Accommodation
The Marriott Forest of Arden is a great 4* hotel boasting quality bedrooms set in the midst of the 10,000 acre Forest of Arden Estate. The stunning Warwickshire countryside makes this the perfect setting for your golf break, with a luxurious location providing complete relaxation.
