Fernhill Artisans Golf Club

Established in 1909, Swinley Forest Golf Club is an inland heathland course located in Winkfield Row, Ascot, designed by Harry S. Colt. The course originally featured a par 68 layout which was later extended to par 69.

Notable characteristics of Swinley Forest include a variety of hole shapes and lengths, significant elevation changes, and the presence of purple heather lining the course. The fairways are lined with trees that provide a sense of seclusion while maintaining visibility across different parts of the course.

The course has been described as fun and presents a blend of beauty, challenge, and character.

The signature hole of Swinley Forest Golf Club is the 9th, a 464-yard par 4 that offers a dramatic play dynamic with an approach to a raised sloping green. Other noteworthy holes include the 4th, a renowned 198-yard par 3, and the 18th, a 403-yard par 4 with strategic play around a creek and bunker obstacles.

Swinley Forest is a private members club and does not generally offer visitor tee times. Limited opportunities to play might be available if you are a guest of a member.
