Our view

Dunston Hall is a strong example of classic parkland golf in Norfolk, offering a well-rounded test without being overly punishing. It’s particularly appealing for groups with mixed abilities, as the layout allows you to score well with sensible play, but still keeps things interesting with its tree-lined holes and subtle design features. The setting around the historic hall adds to the overall experience, giving it a real sense of occasion.
