Great potential

Ash Valley has great potential providing they are willing to spend the money on the course, it’s a really well layed out course but the greens did let it down as they were in poor condition and really let the course down. But overall not a bad place to play

Cheap but easy to get on and OK condition

The course as well as many other courses has suffered from the hot dry weather.

But overall value for money it can't be beaten locally, my boys are learning and it's a perfect course for that. 3 1/2 hour round and we didn't see anyone except on the 18th when other people in buggies were going down the 16th.

Very poor greens & Tee boxes

Tee boxes are in a horrible condition, some are just pure mud and struggle to put a Tee in. When you arrive at the greens you can see damage by animals, followed by patchy muddy areas with cracks sand and grass seed everywhere. Old holes are visible and not level with greens. Such a shame as it has great potential

Shocking greens.

Absolutely horrendous greens and tee boxes not much better. Not one ball cleaner had water in and I do t think the bunkers had been raked this year, bunkers full of weeds. Won’t be returning.

Great course, poorly maintained

It’s a really interesting course but the greens are so poor they are unplayable. Each green is partially bare earth which renders it similar to cobblestones. The bunkers are un-raked and choked with weeds.

What a shame.

Low expectations, even lower rating

I really don’t know where to start.

I wouldn’t pay half of the rate to play this course if I had the choice now. It’s as if the groundsmen are on strike.

The fairways and rough are burnt beyond belief, tee boxes were hacked through to nothing and the greens were more mud than green (18th green pics attached)

I’d seriously avoid this the rest of the year, even for as cheap as it is it’s just not worth it.

Good golf course for the price

Very good for the price. Course layout is pretty good with alot of holes on hills and slopes which makes it a lot more difficult and rough is deep rough.

Practice nets are a bit of a mess with holes and not well kept.

Overall good for how cheap it is and good to Practice on

Don’t bother.

Not very well manicured. Greens are in terrible shape which is a great shame. Bunkers have more weeds than in my garden.

Picturesque but lacking

I've visited Ash Valley and few times now. It's close to me and reasonably priced.

However sometimes you get people checking you in that may need some customer service training. My golf now booking wasn't found on the system even after showing my booking reference etc.

Club house is just a room with some tables and chairs in it. A proper pro shop with some merch wouldn't go a miss, driving nets are so badly damaged it looks like post nuclear war abandoned golf course type feel to it. Driving range is in the middle of the first and last hole which is also pretty basic. Also barely any buggies even with it being a very challenging walk up and down hills.

When you play the course the views are lovely. But some of the greens are like fairways and the rough in some places just swallow your ball even when you see where it went.

Overall it's a 2 or 3 star course with loads of potential to be great. New clubhouse needed and new facilities with more effort on green keeping and making the course nice
