Newbridge Golf Club

Arrived to the course and there was no spaces in the car park. Staff were friendly and took our keys to park the cars when spaces came available. This should have given us an indication of what was to come.

Arrived to the teebox on time (despite the issues in the car park) to be greeted by a crowd of 30 waiting to tee off. With a competition on, there seemed to be tee times every 5 minutes and probably shouldnt have had visitors playing.

The entire course had been sanded and every fairway was similar to a bunker. This is fair enough given recent weather, but we received no prior notice either beforehand or on arrival.

Pace of play was incredibly slow and we were standing on tee boxes for at least ten minutes on every hole. While waiting on the 10th tee box, two groups walked passed us and off the course after playing only 5 or 6 holes. I doubt they were the only ones. We played the entire round after 5 and a half hours but really should have left after 12 holes instead of walking through the flooded tunnel to the 13th.

Disappointing round from start to finish.

Have played this course before and had no issues but this was an especially bad experience.

Disappointingly I played at Newbridge while the grounds staff were spreading sand. The course is obviously a nice place to play but I was very disappointed not to be warned about the maintenance work in advance. The fairways were like bunkers. It made the round particularly in enjoyable. I walked off after 9

played this course today with two people its a great course and great value for money. Only thing I would say was that there was a couple of 4 balls in front and would not let us through but would go bavk
