Golf course in 3 counties, it is unique?

[DavidCh]

Hi,
Is the course I play at unique? Its address and it’s affiliated to one English county (Hertfordshire ) but the course is located in Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire.
Are there many other courses crossing 3 states or counties?
interested to know.

Welcome to The Forum.

No idea but sure somebody will let you know of a course where you drive in one Country and putt out in another

Played at one a few years back that was in both Wiltshire and Dorset, nice course but food was ropey?

I know of the course but never played it. Originally 9 holes, it was extended to 18 across the border but one county won't allow any bunkers so it only has bunkers on 9 of the holes.

It might not actually be in three counties - but The Worcestershire in Malvern Wells must be darned close...

My course (Grims Dyke) straddles the Hertfordshire/Middlesex boundary.
There are several holes where you can literally drive the ball into the next county.
The clubhouse is in Middlesex, so we're officially a London club.
Only two counties, though.

CaptainRon can drive drive off in one county, and land his ball in at least two others.

Best I can come up with is the Kent and Surrey Club in Edenbridge.
The club is so named because on the 5th and 13th you will tee off in Kent and putt out in Surrey.

I never knew that
I always enjoyed playing there, usually in a society, but lots of poeple never rated it.

Llanymynech Golf Club is near Offa's Dyke, one hole starts in Wales and finishes in England...

Trying to work out which club the OP is from...Beadlow, Bedord or similar?

Which course is this ?

Currently racking my brain as I know a couple are in Bucks but affiliated with Beds and Woburn goes through Beds and Bucks but affliated with Bucks but can’t think of one affliated with Herts ?

Not 3 but 2
our nine hole course wind in a out of Dorset and Somerset as you cross an recross the river.

We play in the 3 Counties League does that count?

Are you thinking of Rushmore.

I thought that the reason is that the part that is in Rushmore Park has restrictions on it based upon the historic aspects of the site. Some of the trees they were not allowed to remove make one or two of the holes very interesting.

A couple of ropey holes on the new nine.

What's the reasoning behind no bunkers being allowed?

I believe it is just local bye laws, planning permissions etc.
