Putting greens

The putting greens need massive attention, when paying £20 for a round you'd expect it to be in better condition.

Need to buy a new lawnmower

Don’t know what’s happening at this course but it just doesn’t seem to be kept properly. Felt like we were just playing in a public park.

It’s a great shame, if they sorted out the condition it would be a nice course.

Needs some maintenance

Played 9 holes on Saturday late afternoon (20.04.24), just having a quick knock, the course was fine apart from it needs a bit of maintenance. The tee boxes are being rested which is fine, but you have to play off the winter mats and you can hardly get a tee in them, especially on the par 4/5’s where you want to use your driver. A few self made holes would be useful! There’s no stand-mounted ball washers on each hole! These would be handy as the course is still a little muddy in places and usually every decent course has them. Most importantly, the greens need a good cut and flattened out. Each green was like the grass on the 1st cut and quite bobbly,

In need of some repair

I do enjoy playing this course but the tee boxes do need repair. I’m a new player and need a tee to drive off the box. It’s basically impossible to put a tee in the box. The greens are average but sometimes hard to see from the rough. It is a somewhat challenging course and has lovely scenery. I think if they took a little more pride in the fairways and boxes it would be a much better course. It’s still a good beginners course though.

Great little course

A challenging 9 hole course, playing 18 off a second set of tees. Great value for money but could do with players being remindied about replacing divots, repairing pitch marks and generally looking after the course. Greens probably worse for wear after a wet winter and I'm sure will play better when it's drier. Friendly staff, nice bar and club house and range is nearly always available.

Depserately needs maintenance

Playing at Ridgeway is like playing on a public playing field. The greens are like fairways, the fairways are like rough and the rough is... yeah. The only greens that are well kept is the 6th and the 9th. This is because they are the only greens visible from the wedding marquee, which has what this "golf course" has become, a small wedding venue.

If you want a quick knock around and you're local, go for it. Don't go out of your way to play here though.

Overall a good course for the price, although I have to say the greens are in pretty bad condition.

Average course, needs maintenance

Played a few times, its an average course if you fancy a knock. £13 for 9 holes is ok (not great) because I wouldnt pay £26 for 18 holes at this course. It needs a bit of maintenance doing, as the greens are not kept well and are way too long and some parts of the fairway are like the rough! I know they have a range but Ive never used it, the bar is good and the staff are really friendly. No pro shop on site either.

First Time

It’s a nice course with some good stretches and interesting areas to tackle. It’s fairly well maintained. Very popular with men, women, young and senior. Lots of new players and experienced. Not too strict on dress code but we did dress accordingly so that could be why but others were more “comfortable”. 18 holes was fun and a good pint afterwards.

Not great

Not keen on the course layout. Greens are bumpy and a couple are covered with sand. Fairway grass was too long, stopping balls short and like playing out of the rough at better courses.

Might be better in the summer. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone but I'll give it a go later in the year give it another chance.

Classic autumn/winter golf

A lot of leaves on the fairways/greens this time of year and the fairways aren’t in the BEST condition but god the price it’s pretty good quality. The winter tee boxes need revamping though. They are very battered!

Avoid - unless showing a child golf for 20 mins

Completely unplayable. Boggy, greens as long as most courses fairways, fairways indistinguishable from the rough.
