Founded by Leicester businessmen in 1890, The Leicestershire Golf Club has evolved through significant challenges and redesigns into an 18-hole parkland course spanning 6,593 yards. The club's character was shaped by renowned architects James Braid, H.S. Colt, and Charles MacKenzie, with its greens relaid to USGA standards in the late 1990s to allow winter play. Visitors are welcome and can enjoy the course alongside excellent practice facilities and dining at Bar Santé in the clubhouse.
