Want to play the top public golf courses and hidden gems in England?
We have compiled the best public golf courses and top hidden gems in England thanks to YOU! Our annual Golfers’ Choice lists analyze the ratings and reviews submitted by members of our community – golfers like you – throughout the previous year. We use GolfPass’ Ratings Index logic that weights newer reviews and combine it with a course’s subcategory averages.
Courses must offer public access and have received at least two reviews in 2024 to be eligible for this year’s list. Top heathland courses around London didn’t receive enough reviews to be eligible, so next time you’re playing Walton Heath and Sunningdale or the links that host The Open Championship like Royal Birkdale, Royal St. George or Royal Liverpool, be sure to leave a review.
If you want to play any of these courses listed below, hover your browser over the course photo and if tee times are available, you can click to book directly.
