Ferndown Forest Golf Course is an 18-hole public-access course in Dorset, not merely a driving-range facility. Its official course page describes a flat, relatively short layout measuring 5,014 yards and running through established woodland with streams and ponds. The front nine places greater emphasis on positional course management, while the back nine contains longer holes including par fives.
The club specifically documents the par-four 11th, which plays around a dogleg with the approach crossing a lake, and the par-five 18th, where a stream affects attempts to reach the green in two. Published handicap information from Golfshake lists the current rated course at par 67, with White tees at 4,760 yards, Yellow at 4,489 and Red at 4,151. The golf facility also includes a floodlit driving range, golf shop, custom fitting, bar and restaurant.
The course is an 18-hole parkland golf course. It plays to par 67, 4,585m (5,014 yards). It is open to the public. On-site facilities include Driving Range, Toptracer, Pro Shop, Club Fitting, Restaurant, Bar, Golf Buggy Track.
A specialist course directory records Ferndown Forest as established in 1983. The current operator does not publish a detailed founding history on the indexed pages, so no founder or architect has been assigned without stronger evidence.
The operator says the course has undergone an ongoing improvement programme and promotes a floodlit practice operation alongside the main course.
Ferndown Forest operates as a pay-and-play 18-hole course with membership and competition golf also available. The course is particularly flat and has an 18-hole buggy track, while the wider facility includes a driving range, retail and fitting operation and food-and-beverage facilities.
