Bungay & Waveney Valley Golf Club enjoys a lovely setting in the Waveney Valley, on the Norfolk/Suffolk border. It’s a scenic drive from Park Hotel Diss and a fine choice for golfers who enjoy a course with real character.
Course overview
The course sits within the gentle landscape of the Waveney Valley, with a heath-and-common feel in places that gives it plenty of charm. It’s a long-established club with a friendly, traditional atmosphere.
What to expect
A natural, scenic round that makes the most of its valley setting. The surroundings are a highlight in their own right, so it’s a pleasant outing even on a quieter day.
Useful for hotel guests
Bungay is further afield, so it suits guests happy to make more of a day of it — perhaps combined with exploring the market town of Bungay and the Waveney Valley. Park Hotel Diss is a comfortable place to return to afterwards.
Getting there from Park Hotel Diss
The club is around twenty-eight to thirty-two miles from the hotel, an easy if slightly longer drive east along the Waveney Valley. Free parking is available back at the hotel.
