Crane Valley Golf Club in Verwood has been rated one of the top 50 great value golf courses to play.
The rating has been determined by research conducted by Golfshake, which considers thousands of independent course reviews from its members across a range of categories, including value for money.
Crane Valley, which is part of the Hoburne Group, boasts 27 holes across two golf courses. The club’s main feature is its 18-hole championship course, plus a nine-hole woodland course that offers footgolf, a floodlit driving range, and a clubhouse overlooking the 184-acre site which is a perfect setting for functions and events.
Commenting on the rating, Hoburne’s head of golf, James Slade said: “We are delighted to have been recognised by Golfshake and its members. We have invested heavily in the club over the last few years, and the improvements to the golf course and clubhouse have been incredibly positive, but the emphasis has been to create a warm, friendly club that appeals to people of all ages.
“Like every golf club in the country, we are currently closed but the greenkeeping team is working tirelessly while sticking to strict social distancing and other safe working guidelines to ensure our courses are in the best possible condition for everyone to enjoy as and when can fully re-open.”
