Shortlands Golf Club | Welcome to our website

Shortlands Golf Club is conveniently located in a pleasant mature countryside setting close to Bromley and near to Orpington, Beckenham and Biggin Hill in Kent and Croydon in Surrey and is easily reachable from South London.

Shortlands Golf Club offers a warm welcome to everyone. Friendly members enjoy a varied social programme in the comfortable clubhouse.
