Luffenham Heath Golf Club

Course information

Luffenham Heath, a golfing gem, was opened in 1911 with a celebrity match between James Braid and Harry Vardon. Widely acknowledged as one of the finest and most challenging heathland courses in the Midlands and beyond, it lies in the gentle rolling countryside of Rutland surrounded by woodlands and delightful stone villages. Classic Luffenham Heath conditions will be firm fairways and greens. A premium in hitting the fairway allows the golfer to fly into the green. From the rough its very difficult to hold the green and in some circumstances fool hardy to try. The entire course is a Site of Special Scientific Interest because of the rare flora and fauna that naturally exists there.
