Southwest London’s Premier Golf Club
Southwest London’s Premier Golf Club
The Richmond Golf Club is a private Members’ Club where new members, guests, visiting players, and societies are all warmly welcomed.
Just nine miles from central London, our Club is nestled in the picturesque village of Petersham, bordering Richmond Park. The setting offers not only a rich sense of history but also an abundance of wildlife and natural beauty, creating a truly unique golfing experience.
As a proud part of the local community, we take our role seriously. Each year, we support at least one local charity, and regularly host school proms, club events, and community gatherings, helping to foster strong local connections.
Whether you’re here for the golf, the setting, or the spirit of community – you’ll feel right at home at The Richmond Golf Club.
A COURSE AROUND A CLASSIC
The place we love to be
Taking pride of place at the Club is the magnificent early-Georgian mansion – not many clubs can boast a Clubhouse so steeped in history and opulent splendour. Dating from 1725, the building is regarded as one of the finest examples of English Palladian architecture
CONTINUINGLY BEING ENHANCED
Every hole is a great test of golf
The Course was originally designed by Tom Dunn and has since been extensively updated to become a challenging par 70, 6091 yard course in a peaceful rural setting
THROUGH NINETEEN AND BEYOND
Every aspect is a testament to The Club
There’s so much more to The Richmond Golf Club than just golf. Whether you’re here to relax, socialise, or enjoy the surroundings of our magnificent Georgian mansion, we offer a truly special experience that goes far beyond the fairways.
We’re proud to be more than just a Members’ Club – we’re a place where memorable moments are made.
We hope this website gives you a real sense of who we are and what makes our Club so special.
People Matter at The Richmond Golf Club
At The Richmond Golf Club, people are at the heart of everything we do – whether they’re members, guests, staff, neighbours, or part of our wider community. We are an inclusive and welcoming Club that values connection, respect, and belonging.
Our 665-strong membership includes thriving Ladies’ and Juniors’ sections, and in 2022, we proudly became the first Surrey Club to appoint a female Club Captain – a milestone that reflects our commitment to progress and inclusivity.
In 2023, we raised over £130,000 for our chosen charities, including a record-breaking contribution to Prostate Cancer UK – a testament to the generosity and spirit of our members.
We’re also proud to be one of Surrey and South-West London’s premier wedding venues, and we regularly host a wide variety of corporate events, social gatherings, and private functions within our stunning Georgian clubhouse.
We bid a fond farewell to our lovely Ladies’ Captain, Lucia Albrecht, at her Farewell Lunch on Tuesday 10th March.
Lucia’s charity for her year was Richmond Aid, a charity run by and for disabled people in the local area, supporting them to lead independent lives with the same opportunities as non-disabled people.
At the lunch, Lucia was proud to present them with a cheque for £23,100.
This fantastic amount was raised through various events during the year, with many thanks to all our members for their support and kind generosity.
Lucia will now hand over to Nicky Russell, who will become the new Ladies’ Captain after our AGM on 17th March 2026.
On Friday, February 27th 112 Club Members and guests attended the annual Captain’s Farewell Dinner. During his year in office, Captain Ron Lay’s charity was Momentum, a local charity who support families across Southwest London, Surrey and Sussex whose children are receiving treatment for Cancer and other life-threatening illnesses.
When elected as Captain, Bill Boucher’s chosen charity for 2026/27 will be Ruils. They are a locally based charity whose mission is to support those with disabilities to live independently. They are close to his heart as have really helped his family, and many, many others.
We look forward to raising as much as possible during Bill’s term
