Why Play the Clarkes Golf Par 3 Course in St Helens?
There are plenty of golf courses in St Helens, but not many give you this combination of convenience, quality, and the kind of relaxed atmosphere that makes golf actually enjoyable. Here's what makes our course worth your time.
Perfect for Sharpening Your Short Game
From 100 yards and in is where shots are genuinely won and lost, and our par 3 course gives you a proper workout in exactly that area. Every hole demands club selection, accuracy, and a bit of course management. It's not crazy golf. It's real golf, just without the 4-hour commitment.
A Great Starting Point for New Golfers
If you've always wanted to try golf but felt a bit intimidated by a full-length course, this is the ideal place to start. The holes are accessible without being boring, and you can take your time without feeling like you're holding anyone up. A lot of our regulars played their very first round of golf right here.
Right Next to the Pro Shop
One of the real advantages of playing at Clarkes Golf is what's on your doorstep. If you notice a gap in your bag, want to try a new wedge before you buy, or just fancy browsing the latest golf equipment between holes, the pro shop is right there. It's a handy setup that not many courses can offer.
A Sociable Round That Fits Your Day
A round on a par 3 course takes a fraction of the time of a full 18. That makes it perfect for a quick game after work, a weekend morning with the kids, or a casual knockabout with mates. Golf doesn't always have to be a big occasion.
