From the moment you arrive to the moment you strike your first tee shot, everything here is designed to feel easy. Warm up close to the first, no rushing, no faff, just straight into it. Small touches that make all the difference.

Our short uphill 12th. When playing firm and fast, this undulating fairway can quickly punish an errant tee shot, but an accurate drive can leave a great opportunity to pick up a shot on the scorecard.

Driving through Solihull, you wouldn't expect to find a peaceful parkland course tucked away. But through our gates, that's exactly what greets you, birdsong, quiet chatter, the odd ping of a well struck ball.

Our greenkeeping team delivers exceptional playing conditions through skill, dedication and hard work every single day. On #ThankAGreenkeeperDay, we celebrate Mark and the team that makes Olton special.

We are so proud of Sam for being part of the GB&I Walker Cup side 🇬🇧 🇮🇪

Yesterday's match will go down as one of the great comebacks in sport, and we have it on good authority that Sam and the team celebrated accordingly.

Enjoy the glory, Sam. You've earned it.

A special moment for Sam on the 17th hole in this morning's match, holing a 25 footer to square the match in front of a huge gallery.

Ultimately the result didn't go their way, but a good morning for GB&I nonetheless.

Wishing our member Sam Easterbrook the very best of luck at Lahinch this weekend, as he represents GB&I in the Walker Cup.

We are all behind you Sam, and look forward to following the match online and on TV over the next two days.

Your first shot, your last shot and your warm up, all within a few meters of one another. Just another reason a round here feels so easy.

[Olton Golf Club @OltonGolfClub]

There's no secret to why we're known for having one of the best conditioned courses in the area. It comes down to Mark and his team's dedication and hard work throughout the season, early mornings, challenging conditions and all. We're grateful for their amazing work.

[Olton Golf Club @OltonGolfClub]

Huge congratulations to Sam on his selection for the Walker Cup, the biennial match between the best amateur golfers from Great Britain & Ireland and the United States, and one of the most prestigious honours in the amateur game.

The 11th green appears deceptively flat from this angle, but don't be fooled. A back pin sets up an uphill putt, the good news. Miss it long, and you'll quickly understand why that's not where you want to be.

Our home, a product of J.H. Taylor, Harry Colt and F.W. Hawtree, three of the finest minds golf has ever had.

One of the joys of a round here is how little walking it asks of you, tee to green rarely feels like a trek. A relief after a summer as warm as this one.

[Olton Golf Club @OltonGolfClub]

Our course, stunning in its usual leafy green tones, is just as striking in black and white.

Our course is the product of H.S.Colt, J.H. Taylor and Fred. Hawtree. A place we're proud to call home.

Those fresh cutlines *chefs kiss*

A massive thank you to Mark and his team for their dedication and attention to detail, keeping our course in superb condition.

Our fourth green is one of those beautiful backdrops to play into.

[Olton Golf Club @OltonGolfClub]

A course in exceptional condition, a friendly, welcoming and busy membership community, and right in the heart of Birmingham and Solihull. Amongst the hustle and bustle of town, it's the perfect oasis.

A front pin on our eighth, those bold enough to go for it could be rewarded with a good look at birdie. A miss either side can lead to a tricky up and down to save par.

[Olton Golf Club @OltonGolfClub]

We are situated on a compact plot of just 95 acres, so you never have to walk far from green to tee.

It means we're perfectly suited for a quick nine hole loop or a full round that leaves you feeling remarkably light on your feet.
