The Herefordshire Trail
A superbly scenic 154-mile loop around the county
Kington Golf Club is Herefordshire's number 1 golf course and is England's highest 18 hole course. In 2019 Golf Monthly listed Kington Golf Club as one of its "Hidden Gems" and Golf Empire rates Kington as number 5 in the UK among golf courses of less than 6000 yards.
The course is located on Bradnor Hill, just outside the medieval town of Kington and was first opened for play in 1926. The designer, Major Cecil Hutchinson, was a central figure in golf course design in the early 20th century. He collaborated with James Braid in the construction of Gleneagles and Carnoustie.
Kington Golf Club is a "must play" for any discerning golfer.

The course is situated 4 miles north west of the city of Hereford, nestled in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside. The walking is easy, with gentle rolling fairways around two lakes, playing through mature cider orchards. There is always a background of hills, woods and wildlife with the Welsh mountains in the distance.
At 6224 yards par 71, most of the holes require considerable thought, and with a policy of continual improvement it is seen as a fair but interesting test for players of all abilities. We have excellent practice and teaching facilities, including a dedicated short game area.
Builth Wells Golf Club was founded in 1923 as a 9 hole course and was extended to 18 holes in 1986. The course is set in the quiet, picturesque Mid Wales countryside and is highly regarded for it's stunning scenery and smooth, true putting surfaces.
It would be hard to beat the breath-taking views, winding rally stages and the quality of the Rally Venue. In fact it is so good it is used by the top Rally Works Teams for pre-event testing.
Opened in 1990 Sapey Golf Club has matured into one of the outstanding courses in the area. Set high in the rolling hills of the Herefordshire and Worcestershire border wild life abounds, finding refuge in the surrounding woods, cornfields and pastures, all observed on high by our adopted family of buzzards.
If this is still not challenging enough then the 10,000 trees and shrubs will provide the sternest test. These were carefully selected as a combination of fast growing conifers and the more glamorous broad leaf variety. Now the stakes and free drops have become history, Sapey is becoming one of the most demanding, as well as beautiful, venues in the area.
