Frequently Asked Questions

Is Shelthorpe Pitch & Putt suitable for beginners or families with kids?

Yes, absolutely. We found Shelthorpe to be incredibly welcoming for new golfers and a fantastic spot for families looking for a relaxed outing. The holes are short and manageable, making it perfect for practicing your short game without feeling intimidated.

When's the best time to play Shelthorpe Pitch & Putt, and do I need to book a tee time?

We always recommend visiting Shelthorpe on a weekday morning if you can, as it tends to be quieter and you'll have a more relaxed pace. You typically don't need to book ahead for a casual round; just turn up and pay at the kiosk.

What are the typical costs for a round at Shelthorpe, and is it good value?

You'll find Shelthorpe offers excellent value for money, especially for a full 18-hole pitch and putt experience. Expect to pay a modest green fee, and club hire is usually available for a small extra charge if you don't bring your own.

What makes Shelthorpe Pitch & Putt stand out from other short courses?

What we really appreciate about Shelthorpe is its well-maintained greens and surprisingly varied hole designs for a pitch and putt. You'll encounter a few gentle undulations and strategically placed bunkers that keep things interesting, preventing it from feeling like just another flat practice area.

What kind of clubs should I bring to Shelthorpe, and is there anything else I should know?

You really only need a putter and a wedge or two-a sand wedge and a pitching wedge will cover most shots here. We also suggest bringing your own balls if you have a preference, though they are usually available for purchase.
