We like to make everyone's visit to the clubhouse as enjoyable as possible so we have a few simple rules we ask all members, guests and visitors to follow.

Dress Code: Members and their guests are requested to dress in a manner consistent with the character and standing of ROSL. Members and their guests are asked to wear smart casual clothing while enjoying the Club’s facilities.

National/ traditional dress equivalents are always welcome.

The dress code applies to anyone aged eleven or above.

Members and guests wishing to take exercise outside may pass through the public spaces of the Club in sportswear but should not linger. Sportswear is not permitted in any of the public rooms at any time.

The following items of clothing are not permitted in public areas of the Club at any time:

  • torn, dirty, bleached or distressed clothing or footwear (by design or otherwise)
  • shorts (including fitted shorts)
  • sportswear - including rugby or football shirts
  • vests, t-shirts or any collarless shirt unless covered by a suitable over garment
  • flip-flops, Crocs, ‘Ugg’ style boots or casual sandals (smart sandals are allowed)

On arrival to the Club House we ask all members to check in all outerwear, luggage, laptop bags and rucksacks upon arrival in to the cloakroom or in your bedroom.

Organisations hiring ROSL’s facilities for the purposes of business or entertainment are expected to observe our minimum dress standards.

The Club reserves the right in its sole discretion, to determine on a case-by-case basis what is or is not appropriate attire.

Use of electronic equipment: Complimentary WiFi is available throughout the Clubhouse. The password is available at Reception.

Members and guests are welcome to use their mobile telephones and electronic devices in the Clubhouse but are requested to place all electronic devices (mobile or smart phones, iPads, etc.) on to ‘silent’ or ‘vibration’ mode when entering the Clubhouse. Users are requested  to ensure that keyboard ‘clicks’ are switched off.
