In 1906 the Dyke Golf Course was formed high on the Sussex Downs, however the current layout is of more recent construction. Wartime use as a tank training ground necessitated a complete rebuild . The new course designed by Fred Hawtree is much longer than the pre-war version and is now a first class test of golf measuring 6605 yards with a par of 72. As with most downland courses, the difficulty varies with the strength and direction of the wind. At an elevation of 200 metres the views are spectacular in all directions.

The course is generally playable throughout the year, being fast draining and located in an area that enjoys a mild climate.

The club welcomes visitors with handicap certificates and a knowledge of standard golfing etiquette, which is expected both on and off the course. To avoid possible disappointment visitors should contact the professional on 01273 857260 to book a tee time. 

We offer Open Golf Events for all categories. Entry forms and full details may be found on the Dyke Open Events link on the left of this page.
