A series of tweets by the a golf club read: “Anyone lost a car, not reported stolen but parked behind our 11th green.
“Course open, 18 main greens and even a Ford KA to skirt past on the path at the back of hole 11.”
The driver later returned to her car, which was towed out by greenkeepers on Sunday morning.
Further tweets read: “Owner found and car towed out safely, she had taken a ‘wrong turn’.
