Course Description:

Ashfield Golf Club was designed by Frank Ainsworth and founded in 1990, it is an excellent 18-hole Parkland course. Measuring 5,606 yards with a Par 69 and a standard scratch of 67 off the men's tees, the ladies plays at 5,234 yards with a Par 71 and standard scratch 69. Ashfield is maturing nicely with numberless mature trees and strategically bunkers just waiting for that wayward ball. The signature hole is undoubtedly the 6th at 194 yards the green is well protected by water, requiring careful club selection. The clubhouse offers the visitor full catering facilities and because of Ashfield's relatively low membership visitors and societies are always welcome.
