TIDWORTH GARRISON, WILTS

Architect: Harry Colt (founded 1908).

Yardage: 6,145-6,320 (par 70).

Green fees: £44 midweek, £52 weekends.

In a nutshell… A little known and somewhat secretive layout that’s well worth checking out; it’s a lovely, treelined, downland course.

You’ll love the… Springy turf on a chalk base which drains so well that it rarely (if ever) closes. The stunning Salisbury Plain views are special, too, while overall a round here is good value.
