When the sun comes out, the roads to the coast get busy. Instead - here’s our heatwave hack: a swim, stretch out on a sun lounger and making the most of the sunshine right here in Exeter.

Our outdoor pool is open from early morning until night, giving members their own little slice of holiday without leaving the city.

Who’s making the most of the heatwave this week? ☀️

Here's why you shouldn't "just get the holidays out of the way" before you start...

Every year, people tell themselves they'll begin in September. Or after the next holiday. Or once life calms down.

But the truth is, there will always be another reason to wait.

Starting before your holiday doesn't mean chasing perfection. It means building momentum. Even a few weeks of strength training can boost your energy, improve your confidence and make everyday activities feel easier. You'll head off feeling fitter, stronger and more motivated—not like you're starting from scratch when you get back.

And when you return? You're far more likely to pick up where you left off than if you never started at all.

There's no perfect time. Just the decision to begin.

At Exeter Golf & Country Club, our Personal Trainers create programmes that fit around your life, your goals and your schedule - whether you're a complete beginner or ready to take your training to the next level.

Start now. Your future self will thank you.

No long drive. No countryside detour. Just a few minutes from Exeter city centre and you’re here. ☀️

Whether it’s coffee and cake, lunch on the terrace, afternoon tea or simply soaking up the view, Wear Park is the kind of place that makes you forget how close you are to the city.

The Lloyd Rowett Trophy is contested annually between Exeter Golf & Country Club and Bigbury Golf Club, with better-ball pairs competing over home and away legs to decide the overall winners.

Exeter’s pairings were:

* Justin Powlesland & Darren Everett
* Neil Whittaker & Alan Cleave
* Steve Westaway & Chris Brooking
* Andy Rockey & Charlie Kislingbury
* Jamie Broom & Darryn Lake
* Simon House & Simon Courtney

Men’s Captain Justin Powlesland said: “The team were brilliant and won the home leg 5–1, which meant an overall win of 9–3 to retain the trophy. The match was played in a brilliant spirit, as it was designed to be.”

Still chasing a new PB? It may not be another long run that’s missing from your training plan.

Adding just one Matrix Sprint 8 session each week can help improve your speed, endurance and VO₂ max, so when you head out on your next run, your race pace feels easier and you’re better equipped to push for a personal best.

In just 20 minutes, you’ll challenge your body with short bursts of maximum effort followed by recovery, helping you build the fitness that steady-paced running alone can’t always deliver.

Whether you’re training for a 5K, 10K, half marathon, Hyrox or simply want to become a stronger runner, Sprint 8 could be the smartest addition to your routine.
Not sure where to start?

Try these Sprint 8 settings:
- Beginner: 8–10 km/h
- Intermediate: 10–12 km/h
- Experienced: 12–14 km/h
- Advanced: 14–16+ km/h

Recovery: Walk at 4–6 km/h or jog at 6–10 km/h – you should feel ready to push again, but not fully recovered.

Gradient: Keep it at 1% to better replicate outdoor running. If you’re new to Sprint 8, 0% is absolutely fine while you build confidence.

Remember, Sprint 8 is all about your maximum effort. If your sprint speed is lower than these suggestions but you’re working close to your limit with good form, you’re doing it right.

Ask any of the fitness team to help set up as it’s fully customisable!

Save this post for your next workout and let us know how you get on! 💪

Top tips for playing Hole 3 from our Director of Golf - with legendary sports commentator Steve Rider talking you through every shot, you'll arrive on the tee with plenty of confidence.

At 517 yards, Hole 3 may look like a straightforward par 5, but there's more to it than first meets the eye. The ideal tee shot is just inside the two right hand fairway bunkers, keeping well clear of the trees lining the left.

Long hitters may fancy taking on the green in two, but the percentage play is to lay up short of the gully and trust a well struck wedge to set up a birdie chance. Your approach needs to be precise too, with diagonal bunkers waiting to catch anything under hit and two greenside bunkers protecting the angled green. Aim for the middle to left side of the putting surface for the safest route home.

Watch the reel, take in Steve's commentary, then see how you get on next time you're standing on the 3rd tee.

Growing the golf community, raising £18,000 and getting more people playing. That’s what this season’s been all about. 👏

What a start to the golf season with 62 players representing the club in competitions and almost hitting the £20k fundraising target just a few months in - Justin’s Golf Captaincy year has been all about getting more golfers involved, growing a community amongst the players and making competitions more accessible.

Of course, there’s still time to put yourself forward for comps as the summer is still ahead of us!

Finally…£18k raised for @balloons_devon 🙌 a huge well done to all the golfers, the men’s and women’s committees driving this so far. 👏

Some runs are about chasing a PB. Others are about showing up.

This week’s Run Club headed out for four beautiful riverside miles on a perfect summer evening. The pace was steady, the views were stunning and the conversation made the miles fly by.

It’s all about keeping the discipline, enjoying the scenery and loving the chat along the way.

Join us every Wednesday evening for a run that’s as much about the company as it is the miles.

Who’s joining us next week?

If your meeting room doesn’t have a pool view, does it even count? ☀️

The Exeter Golf and Country Club fitness team swapped the gym floor for the Mews Roof Terrace for a team catch-up and a bit of planning…and a @jamuwild for hydration.

With an indoor meeting space, private bar and rooftop views over the outdoor pool and tennis courts, there are definitely worse places to brainstorm. And if your team deserves an upgrade from the usual boardroom, you can book it too.
