An evening on the terrace

The clubhouse terrace, from the end of a round to the end of the night.

The hour after golf

The terrace sits above the eighteenth, which makes the walk in a pleasure rather than a trudge. Through the summer it fills from about six, as groups come off the course.

It is an unhurried part of the day and the part regulars talk about most.

Dinner outside

Tables move outside from May through to October. The kitchen runs a shorter menu on the terrace than inside, built around the grill.

The light goes down over the valley at about the time the first courses arrive, which is not an accident of design.
