Telford Golf Course

at Telford Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort

Set against the dramatic backdrop of the UNESCO-listed Ironbridge Gorge, Telford Golf Club is a well-established parkland course that combines natural beauty with a rewarding test of golf. Opened in 1976, the course has built a strong reputation as one of Shropshire’s most enjoyable layouts, made even more attractive by the on-site hotel and spa.

Defined by tree-lined fairways, gentle elevation changes, and strategically placed water hazards. The layout makes full use of the surrounding landscape, with several holes offering elevated tees and scenic views across the Severn Valley. A mix of tighter, more technical holes and more forgiving stretches ensures variety throughout the round, while the emphasis on accuracy and course management makes it accessible yet challenging for golfers of all levels.

Signature Holes

Measuring in at 382-yards, the wonderfully crafted par-4 8th requires players to hit an accurate tee shot avoiding the bunkers which guard the fairway.

The approach is just a matter of negotiating the water hazard which guards a relatively simple green, although don’t get suckered into the water.
