TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR VISITOR BOOKINGS: 2025

please see note at the foot of this letter for 2026 information

We are delighted that you are taking the time to visit us and wish you a very warm welcome to our Club.  So that your time spent with us is enjoyable, we have produced some guidance, that we hope you find both of use and interest.  Your day should be truly memorable!

We begin with the dress code, so as to save any embarrassment for you and your fellow travellers. Please do share this information with your party.

Royal St George's is a Semi-Private Members' Club. As you would expect, it has traditional values, but we ask that you respect these values and the staff that are asked to enforce them.

Tee Time Policy

The Club operates a "full tee time" policy for visitor bookings. Therefore, if booking as a single player you will be paired, and if booking a three-ball you will likely be joined by a single player.
Those booking times are welcome to pay for the whole time so as to not be paired.

Dress Code

Golfing attire is acceptable throughout the Club until 11am, after which jacket and tie is mandatory. Ladies are asked to dress appropriately, in a fashion as to complement the dress code applying to gentlemen.

Golfing attire is allowed on the Terrace and in the Snack Bar throughout the day.

No jeans, golf shoes or trainers are permitted in the Clubhouse at any time. Golf hoodies are not acceptable either in the Clubhouse or on the course.

Gentlemen may wear tailored shorts on the course if accompanied with long socks that fold-over at the knee.

Handicap Requirements

You will be aware that handicap certification should be provided upon arrival, with the maximum handicap index of 18.4 applying to all golfers. A photograph of the document held on your phone is sufficient, as is an introductory letter from your Home Club.

Caddies

Royal St. George's is a Championship venue, and therefore a much tougher test than most golf courses. It is highly recommended that visitors enjoy our excellent caddies.  We receive many compliments regarding them, as they are knowledgeable regarding both the course and the club.  You will find that their guidance will serve you well. 

Caddies are paid on the day with cash or via card and their rates are as follows:

Monday, Tuesday & Thursday: £75 plus a tip.
A Forecaddie can be booked at £100 for the group.

Caddies may be requested via the Caddiemaster who can be reached on:

• Tel: 01304 626931 or caddiemaster@royalstgeorges.com

Please be aware that there is a 24hr cancellation policy for all Caddie bookings.

Buggie Hire

Buggies may be hired on production of a medical certificate. They are driven by one of our caddies, for which the overleaf rates apply.

Club Hire                                                                                                                                           

Clubs are available to hire at £50 per set, per round. Available clubs for hire may be viewed by contacting the Professional Shop professional@royalstgeorges.com

Phones

The use of mobile phones is confined to the car park.  We kindly request that they not be used on the Course, in the Clubhouse or its' surrounds.

Catering

Food is available at the Club from 7:30am - 4pm daily.

Lunch can be taken either in the Dining Room until 3pm, or in the Snack Bar until 4pm.

Our Dining Room lunch is considered by many to be the finest in golf: this is available daily from 12pm - 3pm and those wishing to indulge should notify the Steward ahead of their visit.

Informal lunches can be enjoyed on the Terrace or in the Snack Bar without the need for a reservation nor a change of clothes.

During the Summer the Clubhouse closes at 7.30pm, and in the Winter at 5.30pm.

Our Terms & Conditions

Full payment of green fees is required to secure your tee time. This is fully refundable when notice of cancellation is given at least two months in advance of the date of play. Rounds will not be held as a credit under any circumstances.

The office reserves the right to alter tee times or offer a full refund if required.

Corporate Bookings

Enquiries about Group and Corporate Bookings should be made through the Office. Corporate Bookings are subject to VAT.

Liability

The Club accepts no liability for the loss or damage to property while on the Club premises.  Visitors are advised to take out appropriate 3rd party liability insurance.

All that remains to be said is "thank you" for visiting us.  We are here to ensure that your day is marvellous, so please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.

Visitor Information for 2026 Bookings

Further to the above information, we are delighted to update our policy for Visiting Golfers for next year. The following chart outlines the new plan, with the tee sheet now live for the entirety of the year:

*timings differ depending on daylight, with the last tee time not less than 5 hours before sunset. 

Catering

As you will note from the above, all 2026 Green Fees are inclusive of the Dining Room Experience. Should you, or your party, wish to dine on the Terrace or in the Snack Bar you may do so on a paid basis (i.e. the catering included as part of your green fee in non-transferrable). 

Kind regards
