Essex Golf Clubs and Courses
Harwich & Dovercourt Golf Club
Harwich and Dovercourt measures only 5906 yards, but is a tricky parkland course close to the coast. It features out of bounds close to the left side of almost every hole and a fade shot is a handy weapon. The greens are mostly flat but the subtle borrows need finding. With these comments in mind it may be worth following these tips from:
