Belton Park Golf Club: Visitors

A warm welcome, first class golf course, superb facilities and top quality catering are the main reasons why visitors return to Belton Park Golf Club year after year, but there are more. The course is incredibly convenient to play, not only in terms of its location in Grantham Lincolnshire, within minutes of the A1 but also there are 27 holes in three loops of 9, all starting and finishing at the clubhouse. As a finishing touch, we provide a society co-ordinator who will meet, greet and guide you through your day.

It is our belief that all of our visiting parties have different requirements, so we aim to offer a range of products and services that meet all expectations. If you are a party of 11 or less, see our green fee rates or for parties in excess of 12, refer to our society packages.
