The Eighteenth is a really superb finishing hole of 377 yards bringing the player back to a green in front of the terrace and below the Club House.  The drive is downhill with the practice area out-of-bounds beyond the trees on the right and woods all along the left. Avoiding fairway bunkers left and right, the drive must be held up to the right against the rise of the ground, although too far over and entry to the green will be barred by a large Pine tree and a strong Yew hedge.  Cross bunkers short of the green must be carried with the second shot onto the green which makes a difficult target having a grassy drop to the left, bunkers guarding all four corners and Smithells’ Folly on the right.

Pro's Tip

A memorable finishing hole with a view of the clubhouse, but before a well-deserved drink, the most heavily bunkered hole on the course must be safely negotiated. 

The fairway slopes from right to left whilst the green is extremely deep. 

Take plenty of club to give yourself a chance for a finishing birdie.
