Silvermere Golf Complex in Surrey has established itself as one of the most vibrant golfing hubs in Europe

The Whole Game In One

Location, location, location, they say, and Silvermere Golf Complex, close to the busy A3/M25 intersection in Surrey, enjoys one of the most prime locations of all.

When you then use that location to maximum effect by doing everything not just well, but extremely well, you have one hugely impressive golf facility – somewhere that ranks among the biggest and busiest of its kind in Europe.

Let’s start with the 18-hole golf course designed by Neil Coles and Brian Huggett, which sets out through avenues of majestic trees before reaching a dramatic finale, with nerve-testing shots over water on the par-3 17th and island green 18th.
