I was lucky enough to visit Ganton, a mystery venue for 'A Wonderful Day Out' arranged by two golfing business colleagues as a birthday gift. What a gift it was. They were kind enough to arrange for my son to join us and make up a fourball. We entered into the spirit of the club by wearing jacket and tie.... More

Have played the Ganton Course on several occasions beginning about 50 years ago and, most recently, about 12 years ago. Not for the faint hearted.
