Orton Meadows Golf Club, Cambridgeshire

Peter Allis and Clive Clark have changed this intriguing piece of land into one of the most beautiful and challenging new golf courses in the country - a mixture of classic links terrain and modern championship course. Measuring over 6,700 yards from the members' tees, Cambridge Meridian is both spectacular and inviting, offering a golfing layout to challenge the aspirations of the champion while being pleasantly playable for all.

The 210 acre site exudes peace and tranquility so much that visitors easily forget that the hustle and bustle of the City of Cambridge lies a mere 3 miles away. With water hazards on all but five of the holes and large, undulating greens built to USGA championship course standards, you need both a fearless approach and a steady head.!

The club, although privately owned, is run as a traditional members' club and new golfing members are always welcome. The course features superb short game and long game practice areas and first class tuition. The clubhouse offers a friendly, relaxed atmosphere, with lounge, bar and terrace overlooking both the spectacular 1st and 18th holes.

The course is fast becoming a firm favourite locally for PGA and county championships and as a society and corporate venue there are few courses to rival it in the area. With championship tees to bring the playing length to over 7,200 yards, Cambridge Meridian has the pedigree to become a major tournament venue for the 21st century.
