Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time of year to play the Tower Course in England?
We always recommend late spring to early autumn (May-September) for the Tower Course. You'll get the most consistent weather and longer daylight hours, which is perfect for enjoying every challenging hole. Be prepared for classic English weather - a light shower can always surprise you, even in summer.
What kind of golf experience should I expect at the Tower Course - is it a links, parkland, or something else?
The Tower Course offers a fantastic blend, leaning towards a heathland-style experience with some parkland elements. You'll navigate tight, gorse-lined fairways and enjoy the firm, fast-running greens that demand precision. It's a true test of strategic golf, not just brute force.
Are there any specific holes or features at the Tower Course that really stand out?
Absolutely, the par-3 7th, often called "The Keep," is a real showstopper - it plays downhill to a well-guarded green with the course's namesake tower visible in the distance. We also love the finishing stretch, especially the par-5 18th, which offers a dramatic risk-reward approach back towards the historic clubhouse.
How does the Tower Course compare in terms of value for money for a round in England?
We find the Tower Course offers excellent value, especially considering the quality and history. Green fees are competitive for a course of this caliber in England, and you're getting a meticulously maintained track with a genuinely memorable layout. Check their website for twilight rates - they can be a real steal.
What's the post-round experience like at the Tower Course clubhouse?
The clubhouse at Tower Course is a welcoming, traditional affair - exactly what you want after a challenging round. You'll find a cozy bar with local ales and a fantastic menu of hearty English fare. We always grab a pint and a pie, reflecting on the day's shots while enjoying the views over the 18th.
