Golf - Driving Range

[Lost Yorkshire Man]

Where is the nearest Golf Driving range (open to the public) to East Dulwich.

I've seen one in Croydon and hoping there is one closer!

I've used Sidcup a bit. Nice range and a really good short game practice area. You need to pay an annual fee for the short area, but it has all the balls you need thrown in.

About a 20 min drive from ED

Thanks Guys

I always seem to get stuck going to Croydon so I think Sidcup it is. Straight round the South Circular.

Cheers for the advice

In my experience the SC can sometimes take ages to get around too. Guess it depends where you are starting from. It might be better to start from somewhere else though!!

[Magpie]

I agree with Narnia - I reckon its quicker to get to the one on the A222 via Penge or Crystal Palace, than it will be to get to Sidcup on the SC via Catford

Sidcup - 24 mins / 9.9 miles

Croydon - 20 mins / 6.7 miles

Croydon has it (I am easily swayed) - I trust Google......and of course I trust Narnia and Magpie.

My last trip to Croydon was to IKEA and I just have bad memories of the whole experience!!!
