Situated on the outskirts of Walsall, family owned and committed to an ever improving full golfing and leisure package at this most sociable of establishments.
For golfing – game improving – play and stay golf breaks – fishing trips – dining – partying, Calderfields G&CC pretty much has it all.
Maturing all the time Calderfields has a fairly lengthy examination in store, a bit of controlled aggression with your driver is the best policy as you do need a bit of length but enough hazards are lined up to encourage a bit of calm too. After a little bit of a knee-jerker of a tee shot over the stream on the very first hole, generally speaking the opening seven will offer you some opportunities to score well.
The greens are large sized, beautifully conditioned and teasing too as some of the more subtle contours can prove hard to spot.
Around the turn are situated some stand out holes set around the picturesque lake and the surrounding woodland. The signature eighth is absolutely stunning with two water hazards to cross, including the sprawling fishing lake, which guarantees an extremely demanding approach. The 10th should be potentially driveable at 270 yards but has a rather unique hazard blocking the green from view by way of a large raised grassy bank flanked by sand.
The water returns on the way in on the strongest of the par fives at 16 which once again urges a little caution for the average golfer, only the lowest of handicappers might go for it in two.
The closing hole is a good finisher, a short par four, typically narrow and overlooked by the log cabins on the left, with probably Calderfields most contoured green to putt out on.
Play and Stay – Situated to the side of the 18th fairway the 20 log cabins come in double or twin format with modern en-suite facilities, flat screen TV’s and a range of play and stay packages. A great option for golfing/leisure breaks, they are proving to be a very valuable acquisition.
19th hole – More than enough off course charms to stay right here on-site if you are staying over. Calderfields enjoys a vibrant social side, seasonal parties, quizzes, curry nights and discos are always on the agenda, plus the club hosts regular tribute nights too. Check out the calendar on the website, and time your society trip with a big event.
More than just a pro shop, the Staffordshire Golf Performance Centre includes a large retail area, indoor putting green and simulator room with Trackman 4. Full gym facilities are there too as are treatment rooms and an acupuncture room too. Adjacent to the building is the Calderfields driving range, open to all.
Under construction next door is the development of a nine-hole par three course, set to open in 2024.
