Exeter Golf Club is a classic countryside layout – straightforward, scenic, and honest. Set just outside London, it’s a public 18-hole course that rewards accuracy and a steady short game.
The front nine plays flatter and more open; the back nine introduces elevation, tighter fairways, and more thoughtful approaches. Water sneaks into play on a few holes, but never feels unfair. Greens are well-kept and true, offering a fair test for every level of golfer.
Locals love it for the simplicity – no frills, no pretension, just solid golf and good value. The staff keep things moving, the atmosphere is friendly, and it’s one of those courses that works equally well for league play or a casual solo round.
Exeter Golf Club is small-town golf done right – welcoming, walkable, and always a pleasant surprise for first-timers.
