Kendal Golf Club (18 Hole Course)

Nestled in the stunning Cumbrian landscape on the edge of the Lake District, Kendal Golf Club, founded in 1891, presents a classic moorland test with panoramic vistas stretching across the fells towards Morecambe Bay. Originally established on the 'Old Racecourse', the club moved to its current elevated position in 1896. While various architectural influences, including those attributed to figures like Old Tom Morris and the Vardon brothers, have shaped the course over its long history, the layout today offers a challenging yet fair examination of a golfer's game. The course is known for its well-maintained greens and fairways, benefitting from limestone drainage that aids year-round playability. Though not among the longest courses, its strategic design, incorporating the natural contours of the land, demands careful shot-making. The notable 17th hole, nicknamed 'The Battleship', is a short par-3 requiring a precise shot to a green tucked behind a prominent limestone outcrop. Kendal provides an authentic and enjoyable golfing experience amidst breathtaking scenery.
