The golf course has been extremely popular since re-opening and we’ve had a few conversations with members who have said it’s difficult to get a slot right now, due to the course only allowing two balls only, plus the fact that many people are still furloughed so have more time to play.

With that in mind we have been monitoring the situation over the last 8 days to see what we can do to help the situation. The last thing we want is for members not to be able to play on the course.

As many know we have let visitors book online and play the course, but we don’t want members thinking theya re not our priority right now, so for complete transparency here’s a quick rundown of the next 7 days’ worth of bookings to illustrate that members have by far the lion share:

Extra Measures

As members are still struggling to find a tee time we would like to take extra measures to help our members get a game so with that in mind:

  • We are extending the evening tee times from 6:30pm to 7:30pm, and all times from 5pm to 7:30pm are reserved for members only (this accounts for new bookings only).

  • We are restricting visitors to booking only up to 7 days in advance (this was previously 14 days), members are and always have been allowed to book up to 21 days in advance.

  • We are reserving all tee times until 11am every morning of the week for members, so no visitors will be able to book before 11am (this will apply to any new bookings from now)

Once we are back to accepting fourballs the booking system will return to how it was originally, but hopefully this will help a few more members access the course and enjoy this lovely weather!
