Mid Herts Golf Club was fortunate to benefit from the input of renowned golfer and course designer, James Braid, when the course layout was extended to 18 holes in 1923. The result is an established, varied course offering a dynamic and challenging round from tee-off until you complete the 18th hole.
The course never disappoints with undulations and various natural hazards including encroaching trees and thick rough, combined with designed hazards such as strategically placed greenside and fairway bunkers. From both the white and yellow tees, Mid Herts Golf Club is Par 69 for men and from the red tees Par 71 for ladies. However, don’t think you’re without a challenge as with the new World Handicap System we have been given a slope rating of 136 off the white tees, 129 off the yellow and 130 off the red based on our topography.

All your skills will be put to the test as it plays around 6,000 yards off the white tees with five exciting and varied Par 3’s.
Putting surfaces at Mid Herts Golf Club are well-established and maintained ensuring they are firm and well-draining with no need for temporary greens to come into play.
Three of the holes incorporate two-tier greens designed to challenge even the best. Elsewhere, long hitting will give you the edge over your competition. This is a course designed with the aspiring and accomplished golfer in mind, one who likes to be presented with challenges and decisions in order to achieve a low score. Your skill on both long and short recovery shots will be tested and honed.
Mid Herts is fortunate to be able to place considerable ongoing major investment into the beautiful heathland course ensuring a course both for today and future generations. The heathland has naturally excellent drainage meaning you can enjoy a game whatever the time of year. The course is laid out across one of Hertfordshire’s few remaining lowland heathlands and acid grasslands. It is species rich, with tracts of heather, grasses and wildflowers, as well as a home to a range of woodland fauna. Over 90 bird boxes have been installed in recent years by the Club and the red kite, great spotted woodpecker, tawny owl and nuthatch are regularly seen, as well as bats.
