A course in harmony with its surroundings the International Course offers the perfect balance between a golfing challenge and the natural aesthetics of the superb Midlands location. Bob Sandow and our professional greenkeeping team have created a course that has quickly become one of the Midland's best. Making the most of the fantastic scenery and rolling countryside, The Vale Golf Club has something for every golfer and has a very mature feel given its 1991 completion date.

Set in a peaceful undulating part of the complex, The Lenches 9 hole course presents a fair test to experienced golfers and beginners alike. The combination of water hazards, strategically placed bunkers and two testing dog legs creates a course of great variety.

The first three holes are relatively open and short, leading into longer more challenging holes from the 5th onwards. The Lenches, named after a group of local villages, measures 5518 yards from the back tees and has a par of 35. Saving the best until last, the feature hole of the course is the 9th with the largest of the nine lakes at The Vale running up the right hand side of this spectacular par 5.
