Glorious Heathland
02.05.2016
A glorious heathland course at the foot of the South Downs comes as something of a pleasant surprise to first-time visitors. Built on sand, the course drains wonderfully well and is eminently playable throughout the winter. With pines, silver birch and a rich assortment of towering trees set well back from the fairways, Pulborough (as its popularly known) is quite magnificent. There are quite a few bunkers which are filled with beautiful white sand extracted from a pit close to the second tee. Heather, which dazzles at the height of summer, is an ever-present threat. Very traditional, West Sussex is a two-ball club where only singles and foursomes can be played.
