The Mendip Golf Club has come a long way since relocating to its current site back in 1908. From its early beginnings as a nine hole layout it has been continuously improved over the years into the superb eighteen hole par 71 course that it is today.
With its fairways of springy downland turf, "Mendip" boasts lies that some golfers can only dream about. The excellent greens are maintained to a very high standard, many having pronounced borrows which need careful reading.
Located on the North slope of the Mendips, 15 miles south-west of Bath and 18 miles south of Bristol, the highest point on the course is almost 1000 feet above sea level on the 3rd fairway. Looking around on a fine day, visitors can enjoy unparalleled views over seven counties, including the Welsh mountains, spectacular King Arthur's Vale of Avalon, mysterious Glastonbury Tor, and across to Bridgwater Bay and Exmoor.
Over the years, Mendip has received many accolades in national golfing titles and guides. It is worthy of the "hidden gem" description given by one magazine - a course not to miss.
Why not take this opportunity to look around our web site or - better still - come and play "Mendip" during this our Centenary year 2008.
