How else does it work because the club shop isn't even open to speak to anyone and theres nobody to get in touch with other than hotel reception!

Depends what you signed up for when you took membership.
Did you sign up for monthly membership or did you sign up for annual membership paid monthly?
World of difference between the two and whether you are liable for the rest of the year subs

So just walk onto the first tee then if there’s no-one there?!
You’re right, it doesn’t.
I had similar with my gym membership at the beginning of the first lockdown. The gym owners said they would refund every full month during which they were closed when they eventually reopened. I was less than happy with that given the open ended nature of it so cancelled my direct debit, which was payable to a credit management company, not the gym itself.
I promptly received a snotogram from the credit management company threatening me with all sorts. I managed to resolve it by cancelling my gym membership but not before a couple more unsavoury letters from the management company.
The way to deal with such issues is very clearly to cancel your membership with the club and let them, in turn, cancel the credit agreement. Having entered into a legally binding agreement you can’t exit it simply by cancelling a direct debit, which must be regarded as a loan repayment rather than a monthly subscription fee, as you are not paying the club direct.

Mine is a monthly member ship sold to me on the basic I can cancel anytime I like.

How is it the clubs fault it's winter with much shorter daylight hours and a pandemic that has resulted in Government made restrictions of movement?

Well it's not my fault and I'm paying 84 quid a month and can't get a game!

I entered a annual contract and stopped my direct debit after 3 months. They took me to court. However, it was thrown out before it go to a magistrate as I showed 3 months of evidence of not being able to get a tee time. The system went live at midnight and all times taken by 12.01.
This was a few years ago not covid related

Guess I have been fortunate, although there was some forethought. I joined at the end of lockdown 1. To a hotel/resort course so comes with the perceived negatives of that - some of which have become mostly irrelevant in these covid times.
Book my weekend tee times online. Have always booked a time, vast majority at the time I was after (typically between 9 & 9:30). Often only booking a few days ahead (so able to check the weather). Always been 18 holes, never been any 9 hole only restrictions. ?
