Alton Golf Club

1st tee nice dogleg right slightly down hill is an easy par 4 making you think that it's any easy course. By the time you're on the shortish par 3 with the green set on the other side of a valley you realise that it's not easy and precise distance and direction is required. After that you drive across a very deep valley to a sloping fairway and a second to a green down hill in the distance.
It was a great experience with pleasant views across the tree clad hills. Both of us enjoyed the day we had there and played to our handicaps, yes, the fairways were spongy and lush, yes, the greens were well cared for and presented a challenge to read.
The sausage roll in the clubhouse was delicious and at a sensible cost.
The tees for the second 9 were different enough to continue the challenge and we both will go back again once we have completed other challenges local to our home club at Puttenham.

Didn’t realise this was a nine hole when I booked as I probably wouldn’t have bothered but I’d have missed a lovely wee spot. Everyone was very welcoming and we teed off in front of a group of members who made sure we got round in the right order. Greens were decent and a lot better than some I’ve played on recently. My only complaint would be that the tee boxes were a bit lumpy

Always friendly members on and off the course, made me feel welcome and offered advice and support

Really maintained course and currently installing sprinklers, course plays well great scenery

Will be bk again

On arrival we were greeted and instantly made to feel welcome. Having never played here before we a member kindly explained the course and it’s local rules. The course itself is challenging enough and has some well set out holes. It takes a bit to work out where the holes go especially on the second round as it’s a nine holer with eighteen tee points. It had rained heavily prior to our round and unfortunately that made the course very sticky and muddy in places but he greens held up well. Be prepared for a leg workout as at least 2 of the holes have bid hills to navigate 3rd and 4th. Will definitely return when weather is better

OK, so it was quite damp underfoot and the ball was not running but the course was quiet and all the folks there were really friendly and helpful. Suited me well, as I don't hit the ball very far - a longer hitter might find it abut too easy but I really enjoyed the round. Would go back on a sunny day

Nice to go round with more knowledge of the course and its foibles!

Good course - this is an old established course that demands respect as the terrain is used to full effect in the design. Not for the unfit, the hills are energy draining for older golfers like us.

As visitors we were welcomed by the staff and helped and advised by members

Very nice little course, very well maintained and the layout is challenging, with some of the hills! Will go back. Course ammenities are not scored as I didn't use them. Pace of play is less due to other course users not using golf etiquette, which is vastly disappearing from the game no a days.

Good course, challenging par 3’s .. and very hilly in some places. The fairways slope left to right on some holes making it more challenging.

You play the 9 holes twice but with different tee positions.

Ideal for the price.

We played there yesterday and the course was in good nick. Clubhouse was closed up but not the end of the world. Would definitely play here again.
