Weekly Update

As part of our new website being launched, we will provide weekly updates for any news from the Golf Centre and competition results from that week. 

23rd September-3rd October

Course Maintenance/Information

Temporary winter greens have now been cut out by the greenstaff on every hole. This is just in preparation for the winter months and only if needed will they be in use. The greens are GUR so if your ball comes to rest on them then please move it to the side and play your shot from there. 
From the 1st October, lift, clean and place will be in use. This is in play from the fairway and closely mown areas around the green. Any ball in the first cut and rough is play it as it lies.
