The British Golf Museum will close its doors to the public this week to embark on its biggest refurbishment project since 2004. The British Golf Museum is a 5 star museum containing one of the most significant golf collections in the world. In order to maintain high standards in the museum, we are refurbishing our public facilities to ensure they meet visitor expectations of this unique visitor attraction. An exciting new exhibition will be unveiled following the refurbishment.

The project is expected to last approximately 12 weeks and we are aiming to re-open in April 2009. There will be regular updates on the website at www.britishgolfmuseum.co.uk
