Courses

Frequently Asked Questions

I'm planning a golf trip to Peterborough - what courses should I play?

You've hit a bit of a snag if you're looking for golf right within the City of Peterborough itself. While it's a lovely city, you won't find any courses directly inside its boundaries. We recommend looking just outside the city for your golf fix.

Where can I find the best golf courses near Peterborough?

Don't despair - while Peterborough itself is golf-free, you're actually well-positioned for some great rounds just a short drive away. Head west towards Northamptonshire or south into Cambridgeshire, and you'll discover excellent options like Elton Furze Golf Club or Thorpe Wood Golf Course, both offering solid play without a long journey.

When is the best time to visit Peterborough if I want to combine it with nearby golf?

For the best conditions on nearby courses and pleasant city exploring, we always lean towards late spring (May-June) or early autumn (September-October). You'll generally avoid the peak summer crowds and enjoy more comfortable temperatures for both your rounds and exploring Peterborough's historic sites.

What should a golfer expect when visiting the City of Peterborough?

If your primary goal is golf, you should adjust your expectations for the city itself. Peterborough offers a rich history and a vibrant city centre, but it's more of a base for exploring the surrounding golf-rich areas rather than a golf destination in its own right. Plan your days to include travel to nearby courses, and enjoy Peterborough for its non-golf attractions.

Is Peterborough a good base for a golf holiday in England?

Peterborough can absolutely work as a convenient base, especially if you're keen to explore the East of England beyond just golf. You'll find good transport links and plenty of accommodation options, making it easy to drive out to different courses each day. Just remember that the golf action happens -around- Peterborough, not -in- it.
