at 581 yards but be aware of the tenth! It’s a<br />

par 3 with a lake on three sides and a river on<br />

the fourth!<br />

A floodlit driving range and a competitive<br />

operation from midday. Enjoy locally sourced<br />

ingredients with fish, pie and sausage roll of<br />

the day menus. The delicious Lincolnshire beef<br />

lasagne is always a popular choice too.<br />
