Westerwood Hotel Golf Club

A very fun and interesting layout, with some great risk/reward holes, particularly on the back 9. I’d always wanted to play this course because of the design influence of Seve and it didn’t disappoint. Very clever use of water and dog legs. Also some stunning views across to the Campsie Hills. Would love to come back and play again at the height of summer.

Given the time of year, a cold and wet spring and wet conditions on the day, we probably didn’t see it at its best. A couple of the greens in particular need some attention and overall could do with some TLC to match the design. The drainage held up reasonably well under the conditions. Given the economic climate and cost of doing business I think golfers need to manage their expectations for the next few years about conditions of venues, given how expensive modern courses are to maintain.

A good and enjoyable course to play. The paths around the holes are in desperate need of an upgrade. Potholes and uneven paths everywhere! But on the whole the course was good to play, if not a little sandy on the green in places.

Disappointed with the greens, some of them were absolutely shocking.

Well designed course which has been saomewhat neglected.

Greens need attention as do the tee boxes.

Greens were extremely poor, 1st green looks like the grass is dead. They were so bumpy that trying to read a putt was pointless. I appreciate that the weather hasn’t been great but neighbouring courses are in much better condition. The change of tee box for 13 is an improvement but the tee box is in poor condition.

Staff were great on arrival and fairways and pathways were fine however every single green was in very poor condition which sadly took the shine off what should have been an enjoyable round.

As the title states, it's not fit for play at least not if they are taking money.

Course was dry, however it's more moss than grass on the fairways and greens.

Course signage was terrible for people who don't know the layout.

Staff in shop where friendly and that is the only redeeming factor.

Even though it's a local course to me , we won't be back.

The standard of the course was terrible. The greens were terrible, the 13th had sand to dry it out due to it being sodden. There were winter greens on the 1st and 15th. The greens were majorly on the moss side. I’ve played here previously and it’s never been as bad. It needs a lot of work. I would recommend visiting somewhere else until they fix it.

Previously played this course in the winter and it was frosty and firm. However today the course was very wet and waterlogged which proved very challenging even for a fairway shot.

Was initially dissapointed as all temporary greats were on due to frost . Have played coarse once before and was aware the coarse was decent with some really nice holes . Thought distance from coming off some of the greens to reaching next tee area was a trek . Would definitely play coarse again when weathers a bit kinder lol

Thought the drainage on the fairways would have be better, there was too much lying water on the sodden ground and grass was overgrown. Even accounting for the recent showers the general condition of the course was poor.

Another issue was the course layout; the distance between the tees was much further than expected and the condition of the paths were rough and uneven in many places.

These views were shared with my two fellow players … and we agreed it was not worth the fee charged and it is not a course we would be recommending or be willing to revisit.

Finally the staff and off course facilities were very good and cannot be faulted.

Course was in good condition as were greens, and was a decent price. Only criticism is the rough is brutal. If you can't control it off the tee be prepared to bring lots of extra golf balls.

I'd you're reasonably accurate off the tee the course is a good challenge and fun to play. Might advise to hire buggies.

Upon arrival, the pro shop was closed and no staff were about meaning we couldn’t get water or score cards for the course. It would have been easy to walk on and not pay the outrageous price of £31 per person, no such luck however.

The course is clearly needing maintenance, with rocks in bunkers and missing tee box markers. The bins were also overflowing, and the ball washers were bone dry.

As a result of there being no staff about, we quickly caught up with 2 groups of 5, obviously drinking and slowing up the whole course. At one point there was 5 groups of golfers on one hole. We gave up after 10 holes and walked in, absolute shambles. I await a full refund….

Course condition is absolutely shocking!. The greens look like they have some sort of disease on them. There is hardly any grass on the tees. And it must be the muddiest course I have ever played. When we played there had not been alot of rain the previous week but the standing water around some of the greens and on the paths was deplorable. The fairways have all been dug up by the tracks on there lawnmowers or the golf buggies due to it being so wet and damp. One thing for sure for a Seve Ballesteros designed course the man must be turning in his grave at the state that the course has been left to rot .I for one will not be back.

Course was a lot of fun, some really challenging holes and some fun ones too. Cant wait to come back and we were thinking of taking advantage of the hotel spa ha
