About The Area
Waterlooville is a practical Hampshire base for a South Coast golf break, especially for golfers who want easy access to Portsmouth, Hayling Island, the South Downs and nearby parkland golf. Rome2Rio lists Southampton as the nearest airport at 15.3 miles, while Travelmath puts Southampton Airport at around 22 miles from Waterlooville.
The main golf option is Waterlooville Golf Club, founded in 1907. The club describes it as an 18-hole parkland course measuring 6,550 yards, with tree-lined fairways, water hazards, a practice range and putting green. The club also notes that the course was designed by Sir Henry Cotton and includes five par 5s, five par 3s and eight par 4s.
Away from the course, Waterlooville is useful because it sits close to several strong day-out areas. Portsmouth offers the Historic Dockyard, Spinnaker Tower and waterfront attractions, while the South Downs gives walking, cycling and countryside.
For Hashtag Golf Travel customers, Waterlooville works best as a Hampshire golf weekend, a society base, or a practical stop for combining Waterlooville Golf Club with Hayling Island, Portsmouth and the South Downs.
