Knowle
Tucked away in the leafy suburbs to the south-east of Bristol, Knowle is a delightful parkland layout that is distinguished by a raised ridge that runs through the middle of the course. This adds to its strategic demands and the lovely views on offer internally and beyond. Accuracy rather than brute force is the key to success here. The five short holes are particularly appealing, and the raised approaches to the 1st, 4th and 17th greens will call for perfect club selection.
GF: round: £40 Mon-Thu
The 17th at Knowle is a terrific par 4 played up to a raised green cut into the hillside – if in any doubt, take one more club!
