A PORTISHEAD golf course could be reopened if a potential operator comes forward to take it on.

North Somerset Council is inviting tenders for a 20-year lease of a pay and play golf course on the hillside off Nore Road, near to The Windmill pub.

A council spokesman said: “The course has been closed for some time.

“That is why we are now asking for people to come forward to let us know how they would deliver a quality pay and play nine-hole course.”

Those interested in operating the course have until March 28 to submit tender documents.
