Conclusion

This system has been put in place with the view of keeping you the members and our staff SAFE at all times. However, this is down you to keep these procedures working smoothly. 

Please note, there are limited chairs in the clubhouse (16 in the lounge bar and 20 in the dining room). Also there can be NO standing at the bar.

As the guidelines are relaxed then we can relax the system.

For the time being, the club will only be open on Wednesday evenings and Sunday lunchtimes.
Watch this space for any new advice!

Please do email us if you have any queries, we would be only to happy to help.

A MASSIVE thanks to all the volunteers in particular the COVID team: Richard Woolf, Jane White, Alan Rutterford, Robert Wright, Barry & Maggie Owen-Smith for all their hard work. Our club would not have opened without their help.

We hope you have an enjoyable visit.

  

Stay safe and well
