Pleasant golf for both members and visitors. With 18 holes centred on 9 greens, Riverside Golf Club is a unique par-3 short hole course with fairways ranging from 70–140 yards. This picturesque course is perfect for first-time golfers of all ages and genders, as well as experienced golfers looking to practise their short game.
Located in Ravenstonedale, a peaceful and unspoilt village in the upper Eden Valley in Cumbria, Riverside Golf Club enjoys an idyllic setting nestled under the Howgill fells. The course is set in a beautiful wooded location, offering undulating greens and breathtaking scenery to enhance the golfing experience. Surrounded by red squirrels and with a local pub serving delicious food just a short distance away, Riverside Golf Club provides a unique and enjoyable golfing experience.
Riverside Golf Club was opened in January 2000 by Bernard Law, a Ravenstonedale local who single-handedly created and maintains the course. Bernard's efforts have not gone unnoticed, as he was featured in 'The Link', the local parish magazine, for his dedication to the club. His hard work has paid off, as the course has gained a loyal membership base and regular visitors.
In addition to providing a leisure amenity for members and visitors, Riverside Golf Club also caters to special occasions. The course has been used for stag parties and business groups, and it hosts the annual Ravenstonedale Open, which welcomes participants of all skill levels for a great day of golf. Visitors are always welcome at the club, and the fees are collected through an honesty box system, with envelopes provided for proof of payment.
Riverside Golf Club has very few rules, with a focus on common sense considerations aimed at protecting the course, the surrounding area, and other players. The club prides itself on providing a warm and friendly atmosphere, and visitors can contact Bernard Law directly for more information and a warm welcome.
For those interested in exploring the course layout before their visit, Riverside Golf Club offers a course guide and downloadable course map and scorecard on their website. The website, designed by Troutfly Internet, also provides additional information on fees, location, competitions, and contact details.
Overall, Riverside Golf Club offers a unique and enjoyable golfing experience in a beautiful natural setting. With its compact size, par-3 short holes, and challenging yet fun gameplay, this course is perfect for golfers of all skill levels and provides a delightful opportunity to spend a few hours surrounded by nature and enjoying a round of golf.
