Orchardleigh Golf Club
Played On 05/16/2024A good test
Played Orchardleigh today whilst on holiday, had an early morning tee time, so didn’t see many other players at all. First impressions good, the course sits on an estate with a long drive through the course and past a very large old house to the club house. Welcomed ok and was told I could get straight off.
Course was in good condition nice fairways and greens. There was a lot of grass cuttings around as the greenkeepers were out mowing.
Would be nice to play it again as first time round found it difficult with blind shots to protected fairways and greens with plenty of bunkers and water hazards! Some holes also are quite tight so it’s not a smack driver everywhere course.
Pace of play approx 3 hours, shot 7 over my hcap because of 3 bad holes otherwise would have come in under! Would recommend giving it a go!
Rother Valley Golf Centre - Main Course
Played On 11/19/2023Rother Valley GC
Needed an early tee time this Sunday and RVGC was the only course available. Played here lots of times over the years and is a good course and well priced. Interesting layout of holes, quite hilly in places. Greens are pretty good.
Obviously we have had a bit of rain lately so wasn’t expecting no mud but I was greeted with lots of mud! Nearly went flying on a few occasions. They really need to improve the drainage on this course, until then I’ve come to conclusion it’s mainly just a summer course!
Perranporth Golf Club
Played On 09/12/2023Perranporth Golf
Played this course several times before and today was windy which made it challenging. Teamed up with a member on the 4th tee. The course was in ok condition but the worst I have seen it, clear they had recently done a lot of work to it and spiked everywhere, tees, fairways and greens. Greens were remarkably slower than previous rounds. Also noticed green fees have increased.
Good golf though and a challenge for all with many blind shots, friendly pro and member. Would play again.
Lees Hall Golf Club
Played On 07/02/2023Ok
Played today at Lees Hall, about half a dozen times I’ve been round here now. Has a good mix of interesting holes and can be tough in places. Today the greens were like solid rock and any shot or chip on to them just bounced forever and the ball would just run off, made for a very annoying round. Some tee boxes needed attention too, fairways good. Quite expensive really.
Ps Saw a few players hit there tee shot left off the first which is where the car park is so bring some bubble wrap for your car lol
Rufford Park Golf & Country Club
Played On 06/21/2023One of the best in the area.
Really like this course, good mix of holes and although challenging it’s fair, greens always good, fairways and tee boxes mostly good. Great signature hole the 17th.
Can be busy and rounds can take a while but the club recognises this and tries to remind members/ players to speed up!
Good clubhouse too.
Truro Golf Club
Played On 05/17/2023Good Course
Played for first time. Interesting golf course, good variety of holes and although plays quite short is still challenging as quite tight in place with a few blind shots. Course conditions were good but was surprised to see the greens spiked and heavily sanded but they still ran ok just didn’t check up on any chips. Would recommend.
Newquay Golf Club
Played On 05/11/2023Great links by the sea
Played a few times now and is always enjoyable, great links course and not too difficult, I more or less played to my hcap of 18/19. Good layout, pace of play and condition, good variety of holes, friendly members and Chris the pro. Would recommend. Ps remember to enter your reg in the machine in the pro shop as they have ANPR in the car park and you will get a ticket!
Grange Park Golf Club
Played On 03/26/2023Gone downhill
Just played this course today, I play occasionally here a couple of times a year if that, previous reviews are right. Starts with the awful drive down to the clubhouse full of potholes. Course complete mud bath, waterlogged fairways and greens, greens look like there dying. Lost balls in fairway, presumably buried. Should have been closed.
Bondhay Golf Club - Championship Course
Played On 02/12/2023Trees!
Played Bondhay a few times and I find it a hard course, lots of trees and bunkers. Also water features on a few holes. I find it mainly in good condition and nice greens and it was the same today smashing condition for time of year with only 1 temp on the 1st hole.
You need good course management and straight shots to navigate to the greens or you will be playing ping pong trying to chip out from the trees! The normal price was £35 which personally I wouldn’t pay but GolfNow price £24.99 which is good. Shot my hcap today so pleased.
Carlyon Bay Hotel Golf Course
Played On 05/10/2022Great Course
Just played here whilst on holiday, went round in just over 3 hours. Course is well kept and it was in great condition, only small negative were a stones in bunkers.
Greens are very good and true. Good variety of holes and interesting layout, forgiving fairways on some holes and then on others if you miss the fairway your ball will be gone.
I was expecting a links course with it being by the sea (with some great views) but I think it’s more or a parkland.
Great deal on GolfNow for £18, I think usual green fee is £60
Perranporth Golf Club
Played On 05/03/2022Great Links Course
I have played Perranporth a few times now and always found the pro shop and members friendly. It’s a great course not long but you need to be accurate and there’s a few blind shots. Course is always in great condition when I have played.
The course has fantastic views and a completely different experience than my local courses in North Notts. Would recommend if your in the area.
Forest of Dean Golf Club
Played On 09/20/2022Great course and value for money
First time playing this course whilst on holiday, it’s really nice course, quite short but have to be accurate which I like, good variety of holes. Couple of holes have a ‘walk’ between green and next tee.
Course was in great condition although I did think the greens needed a trim or perhaps I’m used to faster greens, at £15 great value and took me about 2 hour 40 mins to get round (a couple of groups let me play through). Would recommend.
Newquay Golf Club
Played On 06/18/2021All Good
Played Newquay a few times now when on holiday. Last couple of times been teamed up with other golfers. It’s a good course with variety of holes. Tough in the wind as it was blowing today. Course well maintained with good greens. Pro shop friendly and hired an electric trolley. Didn’t visit the clubhouse.
Perranporth Golf Club
Played On 05/10/2018Good course
Hi, this was the 3rd time playing the course whilst I have been on my holidays in Cornwall. It’s a good course and it gets easier the more you play it as there’s a few blind shots etc. Played under h/cap this time with no balls lost! Course always in good condition and is quite hilly but this makes the views superb. I would recommend this course to play!
West Cornwall Golf Club
Played On 05/08/2018Good little course
Hi, booked this course to play while on my holiday, it was a dry sunny day but extremely gale force winds which made it quite tough! Most of the holes seemed to play into the wind and had to take 3/4 clubs more... the course was in great condition and superb views! The layout was a little bit off with a few fairways very close by and crossing over slightly. Played almost to h/cap and lost 4 balls! I didn’t go in the clubhouse so unable to comment on that. I would recommend the course to play and would like to play it again in less wind.
Dore & Totley Golf Club
Played On 11/06/2017Good course
Played the course for the first time using a free round of golf code I received from American Golf. There’s 2 courses here a summer and a shorter winter course. Played the winter one. Course was in decent condition despite the wet weather we have had but most of the greens had work carried out on them which made putting difficult, but necessary work, the greens with no work were really good. 2 temp greens which were unplayable due to the length of the grass on them. The layout was ok but it really helped when I joined up with a member on the 4th tee otherwise I may have got lost! Would recommend playing here. Didn’t go in the clubhouse so can’t comment on that.
Perranporth Golf Club
Played On 05/09/2017Good Course
I played here whilst on holiday and the Mrs went horse riding.
The pro shop guy was friendly enough, course layout strange with lots of blind shots which make it difficult if not played here before. I think I could take 10 shots off my score when you know where your going (Shot 99), The par 5s on the front 9 ruined my card!
The course was in great condition with superb fast greens which were true and took the break as seen. I would recommend you take less club than your used too as the ball bounces and runs forever!
Only complaint was pace of play and took 4 hrs 50 mins for the round and waiting on every shot... Still would recommend playing and the views are great!
