Welcome to Bath Golf Club Bath Golf Club is an 18-hole private members’ club situated on Hampton Down above the beautiful and historic city of Bath. It is one of England’s oldest and finest downland courses, and is considered by many the premier golf club in Bath and North East Somerset and one of the top courses in the West Country. Established in 1880, it quickly earned and has kept its reputation as a welcoming club with a thought-provoking course.
enjoyed at the Club throughout the year, and are also happy to host functions such as wedding receptions and birthday parties. On behalf of the management board, members and staff, may I offer you our warmest welcome. We all look forward to seeing you enjoying your golf.
Anthony Roberts, Club Manager
Whether you are an established player or just starting your golfing career, we offer a wide range of membership options. We are also popular with societies and organisations wishing to arrange a golf day. We have an active social programme, with a wide variety of events being www.bathgolfclub.org.uk

The Course and its History Bath is one of the finest and oldest courses in England. Originally laid out in the 1880’s using the natural contours of its hilltop location, it was redesigned in 1937 by the legendary course architect, Harry S. Colt, and now measures over 6,500 yards with a par of 71. The course is full of variety and is laid out over fine golfing country. Springy downland turf over shallow soil and limestone ensures rapid draining and the course is usually in superb condition. The greens present a special challenge, being relatively small and containing hidden, and sometimes not so hidden, borrows.

www.bathgolfclub.org.uk
Affectionately known as “Sham Castle” by the locals, the course earned its nickname from the neighbouring architectural folly. The ‘castle’ stands in a field next to the course and although it looks like the entrance gate to an impressive baronial hall, is in fact nothing more than a single wall. It was built during Bath’s 18th century heyday at the request of wealthy Ralph Allen from his own Bath stone in order, as he himself wrote, “to charm all visitors to Bath”.
We are therefore able to offer history, tradition and one of the best golf courses in the South West of England. In 2010, Bath Golf Club was featured in Golf Monthly. The journalist, a great fan of Harry Colt, was thrilled at the prospect of playing one of Harry’s courses. He spoke highly of numerous exciting holes and an extremely friendly clubhouse and wrote: “The excellent course at Sham Castle was no disappointment. In fine condition and perched high up on Hampton Down it has panoramic views down over the Georgian City and across the Avon Valley”.
The Club is committed to continually improving the course through the efforts of our Head Greenkeeper and his staff, investing in the latest equipment and methods. They work hard to present a course that is in excellent condition throughout the year. We are fortunate to have a limestone-based soil that drains well in the wetter months, but retains moisture in the drier ones, helped by water sprinklers round the greens and tees.

The Course and its History continued... Nature lovers will delight in the plants and wildlife on the course, with managed wild meadows alongside many fairways, flowers such as orchids, and birds including nesting skylarks, buzzards and hunting peregrine falcons. The course is also a rich archaeological landscape. There are the boundaries of a prehistoric field system, providing useful distance markers on some fairways, a large early Iron Age hilltop enclosure with an entrance in front of the ninth tee, and the bomblike craters of 18th century surface stone quarrying on a number of holes.

Playing Golf at Bath Golf Club As a private members’ club, we pride ourselves on catering for all golfing needs. Competitions are held regularly for all our membership categories. We have a number of teams playing formal and informal matches against other clubs including men, ladies, mixed, seniors and juniors. There are several roll-ups during the week, offering all members the certainty of a game and a chance to meet other members.
We recently introduced booked tee times, which have proved a success, offering members the security of knowing they have a tee time, and the ability to avoid crowded periods. Some times are left open to cater for those who prefer not to book. We welcome both individual visitors, and societies and corporate golfers. A range of green fees and packages is available. For more information see the separate section on societies, visit our website or contact the office.

Bath and the Cotswolds Nourished by natural hot springs, Bath offers a unique experience with stunning architecture, great shopping and iconic attractions. Situated at the southern end of the Cotswold Way, the golden city of Bath has been welcoming visitors for over 2,000 years. Designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, Bath is home to some of the most impressive architectural sights in the world including the Royal Crescent, the Circus and Pulteney Bridge. At the heart of the city, next to the Abbey, is the Roman Baths Museum, which gives a fascinating insight into the original bathing complex and the great Roman temple of Sulis Minerva. Above the Museum in the 18th century Pump Room you can taste the waters, enjoy a meal and
listen to music from the Pump Room Trio. The Cotswolds region covers an area of 790 square miles in South-West England and is the country’s largest officially designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Popular with both the British and visitors from all over the world, the area is well known for gentle hillsides (‘wolds’), outstanding countryside with river valleys, water meadows and beech woods, sleepy ancient limestone villages and historic market towns. Throughout the Cotswolds, stone features in buildings and walls and provides a common thread, seamlessly blending the historic towns and villages with the surrounding landscape. The countryside is seen as ‘typically English’, as though time has stood still for 300 years. www.bathgolfclub.org.uk
