I take it from your comment and signature that this isn't your club? Not sure why you posted the link then - it's not even slightly expensive on a scale of 'expensive memberships' - but I thought the purpose of this thread was about people's memberships?

We have a Society day (Surrey Chamber of Commerce) at Cuddington in August. Never played the course but you have whetted my appetite.
If you get a chance to play Cuddington in the summer jump at it. This last year (my first) the course was superb. In as good condition as pretty much anywhere I have played. One of the other members said his other club is in better shape but considering its The Wisley with about 30 full time green staff that's to be expected!

I think the going rate in the north west is £800-£1000.... I have compared my club to a few others and this seems about right. There are a few that have deals such as 15 months for the price of 12 and either no or a vastly reduced joining fee....

I'm £620 this year which includes a £50 bar levy so not bad value so taking the green fee at £56 a round by a week saturday i'll have had my moneys worth already this year
Top value for one of the worlds oldest clubs and a former Final Qualifier for The Open, it was shut for 3 weeks due to ice but its full course ,no mats and no winter tees half way down the hole, course is in good knick just now as well

I pay £1600 and I get 7 day full memberships at the 3 x 18 hole clubs within the group, i can play comps at all and get free range tokens.
Also there is a 9 hole course and a bunch of discounts including 3 free rounds for a guest and I get 3 complimentary rounds at The Addington which is also in the group.
Yes Baz, dead right and you get all the above courses in the group but you're home course is The Addington.
I think £1600 is a lot but if Im honest i reckon I've had about £500 in range Tokens this year :whoo:

Ours has just crept over the £800 barrier this year, maybe not so bad after all looking at some of these prices.

Not really mate, if you have read the OP someone is looking at joining his first club and can't believe how much they are around him to join. If people want to make it into a willy measuring competition then that is up to them but it is a good thread.

Having seen some of those figures I feel that I should never complain again about subs(but I expect I will). Here in wettest Leicestershire I am paying just over £1000 inc; £100 Bar levy.
18 hole course, large practice ground with covered bays for winter & short game area. Not such bad value after all, it seems.

Fair point mate, I always find these threads appear to be like that.
Shocks me how much it costs to play golf in the south. £560 for me but realistically I'm getting around 10 months golf and maybe of that 6 months at best where the course is top notch.

Imurg and myself are 5 day members at £46 per month £552 in annual terms, great value as far as im concerned
The only potential problem is HS2 is due to roll through at some point in time, unless the Greens win at the next election

Biggest mug more like, if you are willing to pay it, they are going to charge it.

Are we really doing this again.
Up North = cheap
Down South = expensive
We have higher mortgages and pay more for a pint as well - it goes with the territory

So if all the Clubs in my area are between £1000 and £1800 I just refuse to play golf and wait it out until they drop the prices.... good one!

Why should it go with the territory? seems to be a a bit of a snooty reply.

£890 for the year and no intermediate membership(Im 27). Around the average for this area as there is no 'Stand out' local course.
