Tyrrells Wood Golf Club

When Tyrrells Wood Golf Club was formed in 1924,  the original course had been designed by five times Open Champion James Braid, one of the most respected and prolific course designers of his day. Improvements were also designed by Harry Colt. Although the course has undergone continuous improvement over the years, care has been taken to preserve Braid's unique approach to green and bunker design. More detailed information is given in our history pages. Tyrrells Wood is located on the edge of the North Downs and in common with much of the area has a chalk subsoil, which provides extremely good drainage. The typical downland nature of the area was transformed by the substantial tree planting programme implemented in the late 19th century, to provide a unique downland/parkland character. The club is continually re-investing to ensure we maintain the excellent conditions of the course and the superb standards of the club house. Most recently we replaced the irrigation system, whereby we now have a state of the art system covering tees, greens and approaches. There are few finer places in Surrey to play golf among the specimen trees which frame magnificent views of the surrounding countryside. The course, which benefits from two starts, is a tough challenge of golf but rewards those golfers who are able to plot their way around a course that is renowned for quick & undulating greens.
