Club House

8 function spaces and extensive gardens

“Nyllavert” has been carefully renovated to maintain a high standard of facilities — without forfeiting the character of the original building, previously a stately home.

Dining

The Dining Room

The Club offers all-day casual dining Monday to Friday from 9.00am to 3.00pm, with lunch service in the Dining Room and private dining rooms from 11.30am to 2.30pm. Dinner is available by pre-arrangement for members and their guests.

The Chef presents a new A la carte menu each month, and personally tailors function menus for each individual occasion. In addition to the principal Dining Room, three smaller private dining rooms, the alfresco terrace and the private garden are available for in-house functions.

The members' bar; mantel trophies and a quiet octagonal table for six.
Bar

The Bar

The members’ bar at the heart of the Club. The wood fire, mantel trophies and both table and lounge seating make the Bar the room into which most members drift before luncheon and functions.

The Bar is open before and during dining service and on selected evenings, including most Friday nights; visiting reciprocal members are welcomed under the same standards as resident members.
