Thorne 18 Hole Golf Course – Doncaster

A good example of a South Yorkshire golf course

This course is a 5294 yard 68 total par site with a series of water and bunker holes. Established and opened in 1980 the course is family owned and self managed with a wide range of onsite amenities.

Nestled within a large, mature Parkland

Although quite a young golf course the holes feels very established and the trees that line courses are mature and offer a real level of difficulty. The course has a good natural flow between the holes although if we had one criticism is that there are large number of direct / straight holes, so this course will favour a low handicap. The course is also very flat (we visited on a damp day so the land irrigation wasn’t perfect) but don’t be put off by this as most courses suffer slightly in the winter months.

A hole to remember

This course saves the best hole for last.

Hole #18, is a 275 yard par 4 dog leg left with a blind island green heavily protected by water and is accessible by a small bridge.

You can chose to hit your big dog and aim to the right of the green but beware that there is a small water ditch to the right and if you land in there it’s a definite penalty drop.

Alternatively you can play sensible and hit a lower iron and play it short, both options leave you with a testing chip over the water and hopefully onto the green ready for putting !!!

Nice course to play, turned up on a whim after a course our society booked onto closed due to weather.
Friendly and funny staff good banter.
Course drained pretty good even though it was a torrential downpour
Will be coming back to play

Must be the best kept golfing secret in Doncaster.... Lovely course, well looked after and relatively short for us older fellows. Very interesting to play. Great value.... What's not to like?

Quite liked the course. It is quite tight in places and seem to do a lot of walking from green to the next tee. For saying how little rain we have had the whole course looked in reasonable condition. Certainly worth playing.

Hosted a society day at this course on a Sunday morning/early afternoon. Staff really friendly and the course was in decent condition. For £30 each with coffee beforehand and Pie and chips afterwards on a weekend you can't argue at the price. Would definitely recommend.
