Wildlife & Conservation

We have a duty to promote and maximise the biodiversity value of the wildlife and habitats of our golf courses.

• We use minimal nutrients on the golf course, only applying fertilisers as and when necessary

• We ensure chemical usage is kept to a minimum. Fungicides are only used during high disease pressure months. Herbicides are generally selective and applied once a year to certain areas, avoiding high flora and fauna areas

• We’ve introduced bird and bat boxes, bug & insect hotels and bee hives

• Areas of deep rough are left to grow for wildflowers and insects

• We restrict our tree cutting to six foot off ground level when raising the canopy and only remove trees when absolutely necessary
