Hampstead Golf Club is an exceptional place – a top-quality 9-hole golf course with a charming clubhouse enjoyed by hundreds of welcoming members. For golfers, it’s London’s hidden gem.
Every hole is unique on the undulating parkland layout that is remarkable and surprising. Legendary Open champion Henry Cotton understood the course’s renowned quality, saying that if you can play to your handicap at Hampstead, you can play anywhere!
HGC is the closest golf course to Central London; designed by Tom Dunn, one of Britain’s most respected course constructors; and it’s a progressive club that benefits from a rich history and a strong vision of its vibrant future.

George Adams, HGC professional from 1911 to 1947, could count the Prince of Wales – later King Edward VIII – among his pupils.

In 1944, a World War II bomb landed close to the clubhouse causing considerable damage and another came down on the edge of HGC’s 1st green.

HGC course designer and first-rate golfer Tom Dunn finished 6th in the 1868 Open Championship at Prestwick GC won by Tom Morris Jr.

HGC is the nearest golf course to the centre of London, 5.5 miles from the Charles I statue near Trafalgar Square.

The first HGC golf pro, James Govan, later took the same job at Pine Valley GC, a course in Philadelphia, USA, that often rates as the best in the world.

Without their own clubhouse, HGC members in the 1890s used the Spaniards Inn pub as a base because it was near to the original 1st tee.

British Prime Minister of the 1960s and 70s Harold Wilson was an HGC member.
