Woodspring Golf and Country Club

The course and its character

Woodspring is laid out as three separate nine-hole loops, each with its own character. The Avon is the shortest and rewards accuracy over length. The Brunel has testing water features and small raised greens that demand precise iron play. The Severn is the longest nine, needing good long drives, but has larger and gentler greens. Today's Golfer credits the design to Donald Steel, Peter Alliss and Clive Clark. Because there are 27 holes, the club rotates which nines form the 18-hole and nine-hole courses from week to week.

Booking and visitor practicalities

Visitors book tee times online and must pay when booking, or the tee time is released after 40 minutes. Tee times start at 7am, every eight minutes on weekdays and every ten at weekends. All golfers must report to the pro shop before teeing off and keep their receipt, as marshals check. Each player needs their own set of clubs. Juniors aged 16 and under must play with a paying adult and pay in the shop. Single players can only play after 2pm at weekends and should call the pro shop first.

Getting there

From the M5, leave at junction 18 and follow signs for Bristol Airport along the A38; the course is on the right as you leave the built-up area. For satellite navigation the club suggests postcode BS13 8AG. There is also a driving range on site.
