Welcome To Harwich and Dovercourt Golf Club
Our Club is a Parkland Course which is 101 years old. It has some very challenging holes and a test to anybody is the par 3 9th which you can barely see the top of the flag and at 243 yards it tests even the best of golfers. We have recently acquired 40 acres of land and added a practice ground to hone your skills.
Harwich and Dovercourt golf club is a friendly members club and a great venue for a day's golf, with excellent catering facilities. Green fees are more than welcome and no need to book but might be a good idea to phone first to make sure there are no competitions. Also societies are welcome and advanced booking would be needed.

Our Club is forever encouraging new members so, if you feel you would like to join our friendly club, please feel free to speak to any of the members or staff who will be glad to help.
Our Club has recently enjoyed a fantastic Centenary year (2006) and had some very good competitions. We celebrated also with a special Dinner and had guest speakers, which included ex England goalkeeper Peter Shilton and World Snooker Champion Dennis Taylor. Both Peter and Dennis stayed for the next days Golf and enjoyed a great day on our course.
Our newly acquired practice ground is a great help if you need to sort out any niggles or need a whole new swing. Every year we have free lessons from a pro so phone to find out when they are next on. If you are new to the game or just wish to tidy elements of your swing up it is worth while coming down.
The friendly 19th is many of the golfers favourite hole. Many a game has been replayed with a couple of jars and future games being easier with the correct amount of lubricant. Why wait? Our lush course awaits you.
With Harwich and Dovercourt being a small community the Golf Club is well supported with over 300 members. We have just started one of our top competitions (Winter League) which runs right through the winter. This always brings out some great golf with the format being Four ball better ball. Also as the winter heads our way breakfast competitions are most welcome with a full English breakfast after nine holes.
Well worth a mention is the greens staff that has done a fantastic job in keeping the fairways and greens in pristine condition. Just to walk round our course is relaxing enough with all the lush fairways and subtle rough. Well done to Lee, Grant and Pip.
"The proof is in the pudding" as they say so come along and see for yourself. We guarantee you won't be disappointed.
