DRESS CODE

Dress regulations

Dress Code – updated May 2024

The Board of Directors and the General Committee are keen to set the conditions that allow the club to continue to build on its reputation as a warm, welcoming and friendly golf club with excellent facilities, enjoyed by all.  Our dress code plays a part in supporting that intention, and while we do recognise that in a rapidly changing ‘Golfing World’, it isn’t practicable to define everything that is or is not enduringly acceptable, some guidance is both welcome and necessary. On that basis we simply expect that all members, their guests, and visitors dress in an appropriate and smart manner when on the course and in the clubhouse, within the framework below.

General.  All recognised, branded and ‘designed for golf’ wear is acceptable on the course, practice area, Terrace and in all the downstairs rooms and bars. 

Additional Specific guidance:

On the Course. 

Golf shoes must be worn. Metal spikes are not permitted.

Downstairs – Terrace, Clubhouse & bars.

In addition to ‘golf wear’ as above, smart casual wear including unripped denim jeans and casual footwear including sliders and sandals are acceptable.  As a guide, we are a Golf Club – not a sports or beach bar so keep it appropriate please. Members & Visitors should change out of wet, soiled or otherwise dirty clothing and remove hats before entering the bar.

We would prefer everyone to adhere to our guidelines voluntarily rather than have our staff or other members remind them.

During British Summer Time clean spike-less and soft spiked shoes can be worn In the Heathland Bar, and in the Captains’ Bar when used as an overflow to the Heathland Bar. Clean spike-less and soft-spiked golf shoes can be worn throughout other areas of the ground floor and the Terrace all year.

If you don’t think your golf shoes are clean after your round, change into casual shoes please.  

Upstairs in the Clubhouse

Smart Casual clothing please for Events and Functions unless otherwise specified for the event.

Golf shoes are not permitted upstairs.
