Australasian Golf Museum


In the same building as the visitor centre, this museum celebrates golfing achievements Down Under. Exhibits have a particular bias towards Ratho Farm, Australia's oldest golf course, which is just up the road. There’s a miniature putting green, where you can try out old-style clubs, and a stupendous selection of collectable, golf-themed Jim Beam bourbon decanters (sadly, empty).
