Dress Code

At Maxstoke Park we consider that appropriate behaviour both in the clubhouse and on the Golf Course is more important than dictating how an individual should be dressed.

We recognise that opinions on this matter are very divided so, as a guideline for your visit, please note that any smart casual clothing, including denim, is acceptable in the Clubhouse although we draw the line at hats/caps, flip-flops (including rubber style sliders), beach style shorts and football shirts being worn. We do not allow golf shoes of any type to be worn indoors, except in the 19th and we also ask that you change out of any dirty or wet clothing before entering the clubhouse.

On the Golf Course we do accept fashion changes very quickly and our current guideline is very simply that any recognised golfing apparel that can be purchased from a professional golf retail outlet is acceptable. Matching socks of any variety are fine. Golf shorts should be tailored but cargo shorts are not, as yet, deemed to be “golfing apparel”.

Mobile phones should only be used in an emergency when on the golf course however, in the clubhouse they can be used for e mails, messaging etc. Calls should be taken outside (away from any play) including the patio area, outside car park, offices or entrance to changing rooms. Please be respectful and courteous to other members around you, be discrete and keep your volume to a minimum.

Driving Range & Short Game Area:

We are satisfied that members (including those accessing lessons with our professional staff) can take a relaxed, yet sensible approach to using the driving range and short game areas to the front of the clubhouse. We understand that many local practice facilities do not operate a strict dress code and we want our members to utilise the facilities that have been built specifically for them. As a result, casual sportswear/workwear will be acceptable whilst using these areas.

However, the use of the practice putting green to the rear of the clubhouse is considered to be a separate facility and golf wear MUST be adhered to at all times. This is due to the location of the putting green being so close to the 1st tee, 18th green and clubhouse areas in which members access in golf attire.
