Frequently Asked Questions

I'm planning a golf trip to North Somerset; which courses should I prioritize?

You'll find North Somerset itself doesn't host any golf courses, so if you're looking to play, you'll need to venture just beyond its borders. We recommend heading south into Somerset or east towards Bristol for excellent options like Mendip Spring Golf Club or Bristol & Clifton Golf Club, both easily accessible for a day trip.

Is North Somerset a good destination for a dedicated golf holiday?

Honestly, if your sole focus is golf, North Somerset isn't the place. While it offers stunning coastal walks and charming villages, you won't find any greens or fairways within its boundaries. We recommend pairing a visit here with a stay in a neighboring region like the Mendips or coastal Somerset, where you'll discover fantastic courses.

What can golfers and their non-golfing companions do in North Somerset?

Even without golf, North Somerset offers plenty to keep you busy. You can explore the dramatic cliffs and pier at Clevedon, enjoy the sandy beaches of Weston-super-Mare, or delve into history at Tyntesfield, a stunning National Trust Victorian Gothic house. It's a perfect spot for coastal walks, good food, and relaxing after a round played elsewhere.

Where should we stay in North Somerset to easily access golf courses in nearby areas?

To best position yourself for golf elsewhere, consider staying in towns like Portishead or Clevedon, which offer convenient road links to Bristol and the wider Somerset region. From here, you're only a short drive to some excellent courses, making it easy to combine a coastal stay with your tee times. Expect a 20-40 minute drive to reach the nearest greens.

When is the best time of year to visit North Somerset if we're hoping to play golf nearby?

For the best golfing conditions in the surrounding areas, we always recommend visiting between late spring and early autumn- May through September. The weather is generally milder and drier, making for more enjoyable rounds and allowing you to fully appreciate North Somerset's beautiful coastline and attractions in between your golf excursions. Just remember to book your tee times in advance, especially during peak season.
