Flempton is a 9-hole heathland course founded in 1895 and redesigned by legendary Open champion J H Taylor in 1906 across 45 acres of sand-based land. Its ingenious clover leaf layout returns golfers to the clubhouse every three holes, whilst the undulating greens and strategic bunkering create a course that plays like an inland links at its peak, despite its modest length.
