Founded in 1910 and designed by six-times Open Champion Harry Vardon, Sandy Lodge is a superb example of inland links golf. The site was chosen primarily because of its sandy soil and excellent drainage, and as a result, the course is open year-round and enjoys a reputation of being playable even in the most extreme weather conditions. Recent improvements include an extension and refurbishment of the clubhouse in 1996, as well as a major course and driving range renewal in 2000. History Sandy Lodge Golf Club had what most people today would call a romantic beginning. In 1908, Mr. James Francis Markes got tired of playing his weekend golf on a muddy North London course at Neasden. He was determined to try to find some more suitable ground on which to build a course that would be dry and pleasant to play during the wet months of the English winter.
Above all, Mr. Markes wanted to find a really sandy soil on which he could lay out a course that would look and play as much like a seaside links as possible Sponsored Links |
