Farnham Estate
A parkland of sweeping variety and landscapes, which drifts lazily
around the impressive hotel and spa at the heart of this plush
resort. Farnham was designed by Jeff Howes and opened in 2009.
The opening nine holes stretch over a hillside and then around it,
enjoying acres of space and a lazy pace. There are several water
features (the 2nd and 4th are beauties) and deep swathes of rough
are to be avoided. The back nine take you up into the forest where
the tree corridors present a very different and darker challenge.
Holes finally break free on the far sideā¦ with the par five 18th
sweeping around a lake, below the hotel and bringing you back to a
brand new clubhouse.
