Hintlesham Golf Club
Set amidst the beautiful Suffolk countryside, Hintlesham Golf Club is a par 72, 6586 yard parkland golf course providing a great challenge for players of all abilities. Whether playing golf, planning a special event or simply coming up for a relaxing drink or bite to eat, you will always enjoy a friendly welcome.

Hintlesham Golf Club is situated within the village of Hintlesham which is ten minutes from Ipswich, and approximately 70 minutes from London by car. Hintlesham Golf Club is a superb wedding venue to hold wedding receptions and evening celebrations for up to 140 guests. With planning services, outstanding hospitality and a license for ceremonies, the Club provides a superb venue for bride, groom and guests alike.
Services
The club provides a fully licensed bar with a bar snack menu from 8am until dusk all year round. We have a restaurant that can provide 3 course meals for up to 120 people and a lovely decking area with stunning vistas of the course that seats up to 70 people. With spacious changing rooms, showers and towel hire, you should have everything you need to relax before and after your game of golf.
Set in 150 acres of Suffolk countryside in the old grounds of Hintlesham Hall, the course was designed by renowned course architects Hawtree & Co, and modified by Walker Cup Captain Peter McEvoy in 1989 and opened in 1990 to much acclaim.

Part of the front nine plays alongside Home Wood, a beautiful landscaped garden (but decimated in the 1987 hurricane) and reputed to be where the painter Thomas Gainsborough drew his inspiration for his picture of young Heneage Lloyd and his elder sister and painted in the 1750's.
Our thriving ladies golf section has a mix of players from absolute beginners through to highly accomplished players, who meet every Thursday morning to play either social golf or one of the monthly medals or stablefords. Our ladies are very active in inter-club competitions including the Weston, the Haskell and the Stearn.
We stock most of the best brands in golf including Titleist, Galvin Green, Footjoy, ProQuip, Volvic Vivid, Bushnell, and Motocaddy as well as branded Hintlesham Golf Club accessories. We also offer a comprehensive selection of ladies golf clothing and we try to select the best from the seasonal ranges to cater for most tastes and budgets.

We got married here on the 4th December 2021. Having to cancel our special day a few times.due to covid we were really lucky for Hintlesham to agree to do a wedding in December. We can't thank the staff and Kate enough the day was perfect from start to finish. The venue was perfect. If you are planning a wedding we can not recommend Hintlesham Golf Club enough. Thank you Kate and the team.

Excellent afternoon tea with sweet and savoury foods. In fact, there was too much to eat in one sitting .... the staff kindly boxed- up the cake items and we ate them for tea the next day!

All staff were very professional and accompanying for our 50th Year Work Celebration. Everyone at the venue was extremely helpful and there was no wait at the bar or for food - very efficient.
Food was excellent and everyone who joined us for the evening thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Excellent venue for big events. I have attended two Christmas parties here and my Daughters wedding reception on Saturday. Apart from the beautiful room and the views, this venue really knows how to organise large functions. Very professional! Pure class!

I had my wedding here on the 22nd of May and cannot recommend the place enough. The staff are amazing and the venue is perfect. I was really worried about going ahead with the wedding with restrictions in place and I am so glad that we did, everyone helped make the day the best it could be and I cannot thank you all enough. You guys are amazing.

This was the perfect place for me my and my National Front buddies. We could joke about monkeys and bananas all day and not receive any repercussions. Nice to find a place that isn't so 'politically correct'!
