The pitch and putt club is just about to re open again for the season.

Cheltenham at O'Connors

 

If you are passing by the only pub in the village you may notice a greater audience in attendance.

The reason for that is the racing session on the year has just kicked off.

Fancy a flutter, an aperitif and a little nibble… pop your head in and say hello.

The lads in there can take your [...]
