Branston Golf & Country Club (Championship)

Running alongside the River Trent, the 18-hole Championship course, par 72, 6,368 yard course is a truly magnificent-looking golf course. It is named one of the best in Staffordshire and looking at the purity of the golf course you can understand why. Every part of the course from the manicured greens to the abundant trees are a similar colour of healthy green that really take the course to that next level. The features which make the course so picturesque also create the challenging elements. Well-placed bunkers coupled with water hazards on 16 out of 18 holes mean you will need to plot your way carefully around this course and try to keep the ball in play to have a chance of scoring well. The famed 18th signature hole has a lake right in front of the green which will catch any balls falling short of the stunning 2-tier green which falls right down to the water. The patio of the clubhouse is directly behind this green which makes for an interesting approach for players and onlookers alike.
