Hilton Park Golf Club - The Allander Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The Allander Course at Hilton Park Golf Club offers 18 holes over 5,487 yards with a 69 par, and shows off its signature hole early: The par-4 fifth hole plays to 372 yards and goes by "Burncrooks." It features a slight dog leg right toward a sunken two-tiered green protected by the Allander burn on three sides, all of which lie out of bounds, making it a tough hole.
James Braid designed the Allander Course at Hilton Park Golf Club way back in 1927 for a 1928 opening. The golf course remains mostly faithful to his vision. The only is that exception of a bit more parkland than moorland because of a recent tree-planting campaign, both to augment the golf course's character and protect the golf course from increased rainfall due to climate change.
The Allander Course at Hilton Park Golf Club is the shorter of the golf club's two golf courses, but management says that just makes it all the more attractive to low-handicap golfers and women.

Hilton Park
Lovely scenic parkland course.
In good condition, wild deer on the 10th!
Excellent pro shop and bar service.
Hilly and enjoyable
Played Hilton course 14/03 after and during heavy rain so cannot comment other than the green complexes looked good. Played Allander course 22/03 in dry conditions which is amazing for this time of year considering the amount of rain in recent weeks. Personally I would recommend Allander over Hilton as the holes were more memorable but can't complain with either. Solid putting greens and chipping area to brush off the cobwebs too.
Last minute game
Turned up at expected T time and was invited to play with two ball that was playing. Good company who were good for keeping me right on course layout. They left on 9th and I played on. 3 ball in front let me play through on 10th so overall a good experience
Excellent well maintained course greens are superb, probably one of the best courses I have played to date. It is course you really need to play a few times to score low on, as there is a lot of blind first shots due to how hilly it is. Will definitely return for another game especially if I can pick it up for £16 a round. What a deal that was!!
Good value for money
Can't review the full facilities as the clubhouse etc was closed for COVID. However the course was in great condition for the end of November. Some small damp patches in the fairway but it has had a few weeks of rain recently.
Lost a couple balls from plugging in the fairway however overall was good conditions.
Greens were fantastic.
Highly enjoyable
Scenery, layout and condition all combine for the most enjoyable round. Not the longest overall but a variance of hole type doglegs each way and challenging par 3’s. good coarse for any level of player
Super course
Great views lovely course well kept defo a first class course recommended
Excellent course, friendly members
I booked last minute and could only manage 9 holes.
The members were playing a medal and very friendly pointing me in the correct direction of the course I was playing... there are 2 courses!
Members in front also very friendly, offered me to play through but I was only doing 9 holes so stayed behind them and followed them
For direction to be honest.
Excellent course, will definitely be back and play a full 18.
Quality course
Great course, best greens I've played in years outside the very expensive courses, lots of blind shots but still enjoyable
