We are pleased to announce that we have managed to get the course OPEN on Saturday 5th April for the 2025 Season, this despite the usual very wet Winter and some serious damage caused by Storm Éowyn on 24th January.
Thanks to the recent dry spell over the last fortnight this gave us the opportunity to get the course in a playable condition, although we still have some ongoing maintenance, clean up and required work to get the green in top condition. Opening on 5th April is a first for us as it is the earliest date we have managed to get open since we took over at Sandfield Pitch and Putt in 2021 but weather permitting will mean we should be open for the Easter Holiday period.
Another first is the addition of our first Sand Bunker situated behind the 16th Green. This was done as a result of some of the storm damage which uprooted and split the iconic tree that framed the green. We hope our players will enjoy (and avoid) the new hazard.
We look forward to welcoming all our regular Patrons and our visiting guests new and old during the upcoming 2025 Season. This may well be the last season of the ‘Old Course’, as we hope to have the 3 new Holes around Morgan’s Loch in play for next Season, along with some exciting new developments at the course.
