Stowmarket

-

This pretty parkland course lies three miles out of town at Finborough Park. It opens with a generous par 5, although there is water and an awkward camber to think about, and closes on a shortish par 3 to a raised green. In between, you’ll remember the long, downhill par-3 4th and the excellent 5th that hugs the River Rat. There are testing trees to contend with on the 6th and 13th, then a strong penultimat­e hole where a tributary of the river meanders down the left.

Par 69, 6,081 yards GF: round: £55wd, £65we
