Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play The Tower Course for ideal conditions?

We always recommend late spring through early autumn, typically May to September, for the best chance of dry weather and firmer fairways. You'll find the course truly shines when the ground isn't waterlogged, allowing for those classic links-style bounces and a more enjoyable walk.

What's the signature challenge or most memorable hole at The Tower Course?

The Tower Course truly stands out with its dramatic 14th hole, a par-3 played directly towards the ancient stone tower that gives the course its name. The prevailing winds make club selection a real puzzle, and the elevated green demands precision you won't soon forget.

Is playing The Tower Course an expensive round, and what's the overall value like?

While The Tower Course isn't a budget option, we consider it excellent value for a championship-level experience in England. Expect green fees to be on par with other top-tier courses, but you're paying for immaculate conditions, a truly historic setting, and a round that will test every club in your bag.

What kind of course is The Tower Course - a links, parkland, or something else?

The Tower Course is a fantastic blend, starting with a more open, links-style front nine that really exposes you to the coastal winds. As you turn for home, the back nine transitions into a slightly more sheltered, heathland feel with gorse and heather defining the fairways, offering a diverse challenge.

What's your top practical tip for someone playing The Tower Course for the first time?

Our biggest tip for The Tower Course is to embrace the wind and practice your knock-down shots before you arrive. The exposed nature of many holes means the wind is almost always a factor, and mastering a low trajectory will save you countless strokes, especially on the longer par-4s.
