Located in historic Bedford County, London Downs Golf Club opened June 1st, 1991. It was designed and built by renowned course architect Russell Breeden, and is owned and operated by Ted Counts. It quickly became a favorite for golfers all over central and southwest Virginia.

With gently rolling hills and undulating greens, the course is challenging but fair. London Downs is always in great condition. The bent grass greens are true and moderately quick. Bermuda grass fairways are plush in the summer and are over seeded in the fall to maintain a good playing surface in the winter months. From the tips the course measures 7118 yards. The official yardage is 6938 (Championship), 6347 (Regular), 5624 (Seniors), and 4953 (Ladies). There are 2 main lakes and 10 ponds throughout the course, and a beautiful view of the Peaks of Otter can be seen as you tee off on the 1st hole.

London Downs has hosted two SBC Futures tour events and also the Teardrop tour, and plays host to numerous charity and corporate events throughout the year.

About 75% of the play is public with special rates for seniors on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and ladies on Mondays. Every year from November 1st until the end of February, London Downs offers its Winter special.

Amenities include a large practice green, driving range, pro shop, snack bar and outdoor pavilion for tournaments and outings. PGA and LPGA professionals are available for lessons by appointment.
