Since both courses are constructed with the benefit of chalk bedrock, we seldom see our courses closed. The Pro Shop stocks a full range of equipment and also has trolleys, clubs and buggies available to hire. The club has competitive green fee rates and we always welcome enquiries about membership.

It is believed that no other golf club obtained its Royal title so soon after it was founded. The 8th Duke of Devonshire accepted the Presidency which has stayed with the family ever since and his son, The Marquis of Hartington MP, became the first Club Captain. The Eastbourne Ladies' Golf Club was founded in 1888.
During the presidency of Spencer Compton Cavendish, the 8th Duke of Devonshire, the current clubhouse was erected and although it still exhibits many of the original features, it has been extensively modernised and extended to provide two bars and a large dining room overlooking the course.
Opened in 2000, the Millennium Lounge is a wonderful place to have a meal or relax after your round with breathtaking views of our course and the South Downs beyond.Being the most flexible room in the clubhouse, it can be a relaxing lounge, a restaurant, or the perfect venue for a large celebration with or without the mobile dance floor.

Our flagship course, maintained to the highest standards and playable throughout the year due to its excellent drainage, offers a combination of open fairways and narrow doglegs, challenging bunkers, testing putts and requires some accurate tee shots.The 10th hole is arguably The Royal's signature hole.

This was my first visit to the Royal Eastbourne golf club. I was part of a team playing a match against their seniors. The course is undulating Downland adjacent to the South Downs but the holes follow the contours of the land so there are no steep lung busting climbs. The course was in fantastic condition with greens running true but not too slick. The 2nd cut rough was difficult but not impossible to play from and a suitable penalty for going off line. The clubhouse facilities are excellent and there is a spacious dining room. We had lamb casserole and seasonal vegetables and the food was excellent

A lovely long dry course! Very enjoyable even with a lot of wind. The view on the town and the green sea was fantastic.
Challenging course as there is a slope.
Think before you hit! Particularly on the 3th... My advice is avoiding the fairway as the slope send back the ball backwards and ruined any good tee shot. Thought on the left or down on the right are good for me.
Long holes and tricky greens to engage your brain.
Dry course all year which is nice and good condition for the greens and fairway at this time of the year.
Enjoyed it and will return to it.
