Bawburgh Golf Club - 18-Hole Course

Excellent price for a great course and facilities. Very slow play meant that we were unable to complete our round.

A thoroughly good course spoilt by slow members playing in front of us. We were ready early and the fairway was clear. We also had a buggy.

I returned to the pro shop to ask if there were players ready to tee off in front of us. Two in the pro shop advised they were awaiting a third.

They tee’d off on time. We could have tee’d off early.

We played up to them on every hole and had to wait 18 times.

As a three ball they could have let us thru but they chose not to. The course was very busy and they were often held up too. But they definitely seemed unconcerned by the slow play and definitely took their time … especially around the greens.

The round took more than 4 hours 30 mins. If they’d let us tee of in front of them I’m pretty sure we’d have been finished in regulation.

The fact that we were paired with another two ball on the day made no real difference to our pace of play.

It was frustrating

We had been touring in the area in a Motorhome and a friend recommended this course as they have extended the car park recently and easily accommodated a large Motorhome.

The staff in the proshop were friendly and helpful. The practice facilities were excellent with a nice parting, green chipping, green and nets.

Hey, we found the course in excellent condition it was challenging for a mid handicap golfer but also accessible for a high handicap golfer.

We would not hesitate to return for another round

Nice course but so slow....5 hour round and 10 mins on each tee is too long.

Clearly overbooked. Staff were also a bit off, we couldnt go off earlier as it was fully booked...even though the player in front hadn't turned up? After 3 holes the single player in a buggy was pushing up on us and we let go through....he said the staff told him to push through to get his slot back!! Didnt make any difference as it was so slow and the single guy then drove off and started playing random holes in frustration.

Third time I have played and each time it is the same story.

Sadly wont play again, shame as the course is decent....not worth the time, however cost was low.

Get what you pay for!

Great course, variation of holes throughout and new addition of the water on par 3 is quality. Looking forward to coming back.

The course was in good condition it's a long course which is very challenging

Really enjoyed the course some really great hole especially the oar 3’s . Let down by the man working in the pro shop ,seemed uninterested about my questions about the course . I wanted to buy a few things but when I went to the desk he wasn’t there , waited a bit but my tee time was close so just had to leave . A real shame !!

Having utilized a few of the deals now for Bawburgh I must say that's it's one of not the best value course near Norwich.

Nice well presented course. Wide fearways and a a fair few long par 5s (a couple over 500 yards) and plenty of long Par 3 and 4#.

Encourages you to get the woods out of the bag! Greens run really well, fast greens.

The only think missing is a driving range, but the nearby family golf center caters for this. There are also nets and a small practice green close to the first tee, to help dust off the cobwebs if needed.

Course in very good condition and 18 holes certainly gets the lungs working!

Booked a round through GolfNow and prior to the round checked the website which stated that the 16th hole was closed which we found fair and appreciated the heads up. We made the trip of just over an hour and to our disappointment found that every hole on the remaining 17 had a temporary green which was not stated anywhere on the bawburgh website. No effort had been made with the temporary greens, just a hole cut into a random section of the fairway. I have emailed the course about the conditions but still not heard anything back, hopefully I receive a reply within the next day or so but I definitely will not be going back anytime soon.

The course was in poor condition. I understand at this time of year you can't expect too much but we were still very disappointed.

This course was superb. Wide open fairways & well maintained. A true joy to play. It's rather challenging and the holes are fairly long so if you have issues with mobility or walking, you could find it tricky. Trolley rental was only £5 which was perfect.

Excellent afternoon of golf. Good condition for the time of year . Greens played true and quick.

Sadly only played 15 holes before it got dark, pace was shocking…no idea why it was so packed.

No staff booking people in might have something to do with it, didn’t see anyone in the pro shop an hour before our tee

Course is good but fairways too long and greens very slow, just been sand treated to be fair.

Shame as was looking forward to it
