Southbrook Golf Club

The staff and clubhouse at Southbrook were both very nice. Unfortunately the same couldn't be said about the course conditions. The course had so much potential with beautiful lies, but unfortunately it looked like the grass hadn't been watered anywhere other than the tee blocks and greens. I know the rain hasn't been of much help but the conditions were unacceptable for the price.

Great layout, great staff. Great value. My only complaint is the fairways were a little dry from lack of rain and watering. Ill be back for sure though.

This is a great course, with a moderate challenge, however they overbook the times, and the game can move quite slow. The marshall needs to be out more on the course to tell people to move along instead of spending 10 minutes looking for a ball.
If we return for a twilight, I would do the back nine first, as that is where all the big trees are and it gets dark quickly.

Nice course to play! Very challenging greens, very slow round this day

Southbrook is rarely affected by rain or storm due to excellent drainage.
Staff is very friendly & very accommodating (something for instance sorely missing with Flambrough Hills -a course very comparable in difficulty & maintenance. Also SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive than Southbrook).
Another nice feature this time of the year late in afternoon (when I like to play) -mosquitoes are not too annoying) esp compared to some other local courses.
All in all -solid course & excellent value. WE all enjoyed it.

Have enjoyed this golf coarse for a # of years. They changed around some of the back 9 holes to make it more challenging and I think to speed up play. I would recommend this coarse to anyone . Staff are very friendly and obliging. Don

Have played here many times over the years and enjoy the layout as well as the look many old large trees and water comes into play often. Excellent course.

A beautiful course for a great price. Super friendly staff with well maintained grounds and fantastic greens. I'll be back a few more times this year.

Slow round, but it was a Sunday ! Generally faster on a weekday or twilight. Found more balls then i lost ;-)

First time I have played this course since they rearranged the back nine. Better layout now. The tee off on 11 looks a little daunting with the trees down both sides, a nice chute effect good par 5. They kept the challenging double creek shot (old #11) now just a par 4.
Greens seemed a little long but were still fast.

This course has been a fave of mine for many years. There have been some ongoing improvements that have made the course much more fair to the average golfer

and the starter was friendly
but when we encountered a problem with the cart, the encounter with the marshal on duty causes me not to ever visit that course again.
chatted with the maintenance guy while waiting for the guys to tee off and he was great so he kinda made up for the behavious of the marshall.
pity about this as it is a great course but the game was over 5 hours!!!
But, I would still recommend the course cause that is what it is all about - the actual game

when I played this course it was very dry and hard almost impossible to stop the ball on the greens.If you landed on the green it would bounce and release to the back even on the holes when the green sloped from front to back.Not easy to run anything up to the hole as many of the greens are elevated
the pace of play was very slow lots of rough and a lot of time spent looking for your ball,sometimes in the rough even when you found your ball you go get a club and come back and you cant find the ball even though you were only a few yards away from it.

The course is a standard layout that is reasonably maintained. It has number of holes with small circular pancake greens that detract from the rest of the course. It appears that there has been regular upgrading to the course... hopefully some more greens will be improved.

The course was in great shape and play flowed well. Staff was very friendly

bring h2o just in case, we were left without a cart girl and thank god we brought water

Great course a must return in the near future, great staff memebers that were very helpful and friendly

this course has greatly improved over the years. A New 11th hole adds to the experience.

Pace of play is always slow due to over booking of the course. There is a lack of Marshals doing what their supposed to do and make sure pace of play is at a decent pace. There is always a case of people playing 3 or more shots of the tee and hitting it barley 150. Course could be a lot better if they didn't over book all the time, and had enough marshals to maintain the pace of play. Golf shouldn't be 5 hours. In terms of the course shape, it offers some challenging holes and a decent fairway and greens cut but the rough is outrageous and they need to have levels of rough and not a huge ball trap. Especially when your ball rolls slightly off the fairway. That's all I have to say.

This course is challenging and fun to play! Beware the creek.
