SKRATCH Golf Studio
Turn underused space into a golf destination
A premium golf studio on your site, run by SKRATCH. No capital outlay. No extra staff.
01 — The opportunity
Most sites have space that earns nothing
Idle space
Car park corners, terraces, gardens and spare rooms that bring in no income.
Quiet periods
Midweek, evenings and the winter months, when fewer people come on site.
Short visits
Guests leave sooner when there's nothing to keep them there.
A SKRATCH Golf Studio turns that space into footfall, dwell time and income.
- Capital outlay
- £0
- A month, all-in
- Under £2,200
- Venue profit a year
- £10k–£47k
Illustrative, at 25–50% of available hours booked, ex VAT. Profit rises once the finance ends. Not a guarantee.
02 — How it works
No staff needed. We run it.
You keep 100% of the food and drink, and the footfall that comes with it.
