Women’s Golf
We are keen to encourage women and girls to play golf with our female beginners programme. We run relaxed group lessons, with a focus on techniques and skills that women generally find most helpful for learning and improving their game.

Beginners' Golf
Many beginners enjoy our group golf lessons to get them started and our flexible options make it easy to learn. However, groups are not for everyone – with individual golf coaching sessions, our friendly PGA Professionals will help you build a strong foundation for your individual game from the word go.
Testimonials
“Recommend it to anyone”
When I recently retired I decided to take a course of golf lessons with the aim of reducing my handicap from 16 (which I have been stuck at for about 10 years) to 14 or lower. I booked 6 lessons with one of the professionals and thanks to those lessons and a fair amount of practise I am now playing off 12. The great points about lessons at Burhill are: flexible booking times that were easy to book and change; great practice facilities for long and short game; they kept everything simple and worked on improvements rather than change my complete swing. I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend it to anyone serious about reducing their handicap. My second course of lessons have just started, as 10 is my new target.
