Description
Another excellent par 3 with probably the best backdrop you could have with the Caer Caradoc Mountain in the distance.
Our Professional Advises
A grass hollow short of the green makes this hole look a lot shorter but don’t be fooled. Once again beware of hitting to the right as your ball will run down the hill.

Book Tee Time
If you do manage to avert your gaze from the views you will find bracken and heather-lined fairways that snake among hills and cavernous valleys, leading to undulating, tricky greens that will ask tough questions of your putting stroke. Church Stretton doesn’t rely on freakish length or huge carries off the tee to give it teeth – the spectacular natural landscape gives it all the bite it needs.
The sandy soil and excellent year-round drainage means the course is a pleasure to play all year round. Many of the golfing Press have also come along to see what all the fuss is about. Todays Golfer, Golf Monthly and others have heaped praise on this “unique gem” and a recent course review described Church Stretton as “a spectacular golfing experience that anyone who loves the game should play.”
But don’t take our word for it – the only way to truly experience all that this unique course has to offer – is to come and play.

Great golf club, need to be reasonable fit as it’s set in glorious country sidePosted on Glynn Roberts9 June 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An absolute hidden gem set in the Shropshire hills. You will struggle to find a better course with that level of scenery and condition for the price; incredible. The course is short in length according to the score card but you have to navigate it so intelligently that it doesn't feel that way. Super quirky, highly recommend.Posted on samuel shellis1 June 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A fantastic unique course, always a pleasure to play. Extremely friendly members who go out of their way to help.Posted on George Blakemore25 May 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been so impressed by the warm welcome given to ladies who may wish to join and play at this club. Free taster sessions by the fantastic coach James have been great and done the trick! Added to that, the time and attention given to us from the lady members to gain more experience and practice, more could not have been done to help demonstrate the positive spirit of the club. A big thank you everyone!Posted on Ros Crook20 May 2025
