Felixstowe Ferry Golf Club (The Martello Course)
Links Course in Felixstowe, England
Felixstowe Ferry Golf Club, established in 1880, stands as one of England's older golfing institutions and holds the distinction of being the sole true links course in Suffolk. Situated along the coast with views over the Deben Estuary, the course is characterised by undulating fairways, strategically placed bunkers, and the ever-present coastal breeze. A notable landmark is the historic Martello Tower, which served as the club's first clubhouse and remains a prominent feature. The Martello course has seen design influences from notable figures including Tom Dunn, Willie Fernie, Harry Colt, Alister MacKenzie, James Braid, Henry Cotton, Guy Campbell (Sir Guy Campbell), and Martin Hawtree over its history. The club has hosted the English Women's County Finals and one of its club professionals has successfully qualified for The Open Championship.
