Kingsthorpe Golf Club founded 1908
Welcome to Kingsthorpe Golf Club, a hidden gem in the heart of Northampton. Founded in 1908, the club moved to its current location in 1914. Kingsthorpe provides a challenging yet fair test of golf synonymous with the design skills associated with the legendary Harry Colt. Accuracy off the tee is paramount to afford the golfer the opportunity to hit the right part of the small undulating greens. Many birdie opportunities await if you can achieve this, whilst par becomes tough if off line or faced with downhill sloping putts.
One thing that we guarantee at Kingsthorpe is a warm welcome at Northampton’s friendliest club. With our modern clubhouse and excellent catering, we guarantee a fantastic day’s golf that will want you to return time and again in the future.
The course itself is best described as a traditional “Parkland” course, built on around 73 acres, which must surely be amongst the smallest plots on which a proper 18 hole course has been built. The course yardage of only 5,854yds from the back tees suggests a short course, but with a par of 69 and only one par 5, this yardage is a little misleading. The visitor tees are all within 10 yards of the competition tees barring two holes – the exception to the rule at many other courses. You really do get the opportunity to play Kingsthorpe as it was designed.
The course measures: 5,854 yards, par 69 for men and 5,316 yards, par 71 for ladies, and is a fair and enjoyable test for any level of golfer. The superb drainage makes play possible for 52 weeks of the year. Best described as undulating parkland, a little bit of countryside in the heart of the town. Buggy hire is available at a reasonable cost. At Kingsthorpe Golf Club we believe that really enjoyable golf takes more than just a great golf course. We make sure that your whole experience – from the friendly welcome in the ProShop to your drinks and meal in our relaxed clubhouse – is all part of a day that you’ll remember.
