Delamere is a traditional golf club which maintains a deliberately small membership base and welcomes visitors throughout the year. Golf is played in a friendly and competitive spirit around a classic Herbert Fowler designed heathland course.
The course benefits from its sandy sub-soil base which drains remarkably quickly and in consequence allows golf to be played from proper tees to normal greens throughout the year. In addition as a result of its 100 year plus heritage the design of Delamere limits walking distance between green and tee resulting in the round being played at a brisk pace.
Membership is restricted to a maximum of 500 people of which 350 are Full Members with voting rights and the ability to play 7 days per week. The balance includes Restricted (5 day) Members, Juniors, Oversees Members, Special Interest Groups such as the Armed Forces and the Clergy as well as a number of Social Members.
As a long-established club Delamere is intent on preserving the character of golf for members and visitors. We play throughout the year on a

challenging heathland course and provide tremendous off-course facilities for members and visitors alike. Our Professional, Martin Brown is a top quality PGA teaching pro who has high-tech indoor and outdoor facilities. The clubhouse and locker rooms have been fully refurbished and our staff provide a warm welcome coupled with excellent catering.
As a result we set out to ensure that prospective members gain a good understanding of the traditions of Delamere and in consequence will enjoy their time at the club. This is achieved by the requirement that a potential member must have a proposer and seconder who are already established members of the club. In addition the backing of the majority of the Committee is needed and this is usually achieved by the candidate playing with the most members of the Committee, two of whom must write in support of their application.
Anyone interested in membership of Delamere should initially contact the Secretary who will advise them about the application procedure.
