Arscott Golf Club

Arscott Golf Club sits four miles from Shrewsbury, on the edge of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, giving the course an immediate rural backdrop despite its closeness to the county town. The club has deliberately moved away from a traditional golf club model, aiming instead to offer a friendly and affordable experience for both members and visiting golfers, with green fee rates the club describes as among the best value in the area. Visitors are welcome throughout the week, though non-member guests are asked not to play before eleven o'clock on Tuesdays and Thursdays, when club competitions typically take priority on the course. Members may bring guests at reduced rates, subject to a limit of three guests per member and a cap on how often any individual guest can benefit from those rates within a twelve-month period. This approach has helped build a following among visitors who return to the course regularly rather than treating it as a one-off stop. The setting on the edge of the Shropshire Hills gives the course access to the county's characteristic rolling, hilly landscape, distinct from the flatter ground found closer to the Shrewsbury town centre, making Arscott a useful option for golfers exploring this part of the county.
