The Astbury

This is a great course but we played it the wrong time of year as the greens had been treated so we had 1/2 inch lines to put on with sand in them , give it a month and I imagine they will be great , just would like a heads up over all a great course so don't be put off

This is our 4th visit to The Astbury in the last 12 months. Once again, considering the recent weather, the course was in excellent condition.

The staff are always pleasant and helpful.

If you ever get the chance play this course. Beautiful place, immaculately kept. Looks quite open but the way the rough is cut means punishment is never too far away. And the greens are some of the best we have ever played. Again thanks to the staff.

Great course and very well Maintained all round will be playing agin

Great course in lovely surroundings, very good undulating fairways and greens in great nick, quite open, would make a perfect society course. Good mixture of long, short and tempting "go for it" holes. When the small sapling trees lining the fairways mature it will be even better. Not sure about the GolfShake 2nd best rated course behind St Andrews? Could make more use of the lakes and ponds in the grounds that don't really come into play until the 18th. Nevertheless an excellent track.

Hi Everyone,

We travelled from Scotland to play this course and it lived up to expectations. Firstly Dave the Professional made us feel very welcome and went out of his way to look after us. The clubhouse is well presented, stylish and the service was excellent. Our day out was really enhanced when we met Me and My Golf for the second time this year having met them both at Castle Stuart in the summer. A great course, great venue and some great team players and characters that all make it a special day out.

Well done to all at The Aspley we will defo be back soon.

Thanks Andy and Robbie Malkin

I'd heard a lot of this place, and was looking forward to playing it. The set up here is good, and you can tell the owner has high hopes. Impressive clubhouse, and friendly staff, meant the day started well enough. The course is where there was slight disappointment.

The course still feels really new, it's well looked after with some impressive holes, but it feels very open in places. This may be to some people's liking, and would probably be well suited to societies with higher handicap or non regular players. The course improves as you continue round, with the back 9 - definite improvement on the front. The greens were in fairly good condition for the time of year, but after all I'd heard I possibly expected better. With all this in mind I feel the £35 green fee we paid on a Sunday afternoon in October was maybe a little high, with what I could equal courses available for £20 or even less. At £20 I would have considered this good value, but £35 seems expensive. The round was enjoyable and I would definitely play the course again, really hoping it matures a little over the next few years.

As this course matures it just gets better and better. Course conditions would have been 5 stars but front 9 greens being dressed but I appreciate that this needs to be done. Will definitely visit again (3rd visit this summer).

A Great Golf course that is still maturing & will only get better over the years.
