Parkstone Golf Club
What you’re in for.
Parkstone is a mature heathland course near Poole Harbour with stands of pine and views over Poole Bay towards Brownsea Island.
Laid out by Willie Park Jr in 1909, it was later reworked by James Braid and sits among the top 100 courses in Great Britain and Ireland.
THE COURSE
The par 3 18th is a testing finishing hole guarded by five bunkers, heather and trees.
GETTING ON, AND THE RULES
GETTING A GAME AS A NON-MEMBER
- A booked visitor tee time, weekdays.
- As a member's guest.
AT THE CLUB
Play Parkstone as a member’s guest, for £50.
That is the club’s own member’s guest rate, up to 75% below the £200 visitor green fee. A member signs you in and plays the round with you. Hosted Rounds is the members’ network that finds you the member.
Playing Parkstone as a guest
How do I play Parkstone Golf Club as a guest?+
Parkstone Golf Club is a private members' club, so the surest way to play it is as a member's guest. Hosted Rounds is a UK members' network built for exactly that: join, connect with a Parkstone member, and they sign you in as their guest, usually at the club's own member's-guest rate rather than the full visitor fee.
How much is it to play Parkstone Golf Club with a member?+
Played as a member's guest at Parkstone, the rate is about £50 a round, versus the £200 visitor green fee. Your host signs you in and it is paid at the club on the day.
How much does membership at Parkstone Golf Club cost?+
Membership subscriptions at Parkstone are set annually and, as at most private members' clubs, are generally quoted on enquiry, so ask the club direct about current fees, joining fees and any waiting list. If the aim is to play Parkstone rather than join it, you do not need a membership at all: a member can sign you in as their guest for about £50, which is what Hosted Rounds arranges.
Can you play Parkstone Golf Club without being a member?+
Yes. Parkstone allows visitor play, with some restrictions (visitors on weekends and bank holidays only after 2:30pm with limited availability). You can also play as a member's guest, signed in by a member at the club's guest rate.
Where is Parkstone Golf Club?+
Parkstone Golf Club is in Dorset (BH14 9QS), in the South West.
