Practical Notes Before You Go
- Bookings are essential for rounds, including the 18 and 9 hole visitor options.
- The course is a par 72 coastal layout, so expect wind and links-style conditions; check the dress and etiquette page before arriving.
- The club runs competitions and championships (for example, a Club Championship final round listed for Sunday 5 March 2023), which can affect visitor tee times — confirm availability when you call.
- The clubhouse cafe, bar and lounge are open to the public, not just members, so non-golfers can visit too.
