Belton Woods Golf Club - Lakes Course

Lovely course, was like millionaires golf, 3pm Monday afternoon, hardly anyone else playing at that time.

Bar was cash only which was a pain and the food was over priced so we decided to eat on the way home.

We were a walking three ball following groups of four balls in buggies, we knew it would be a 4 hour round before we teed off, accepted that so no issues

The course was in reasonable condition and the fairways generous in width, however the rough was tall and wispy should you get into it

The greens were fine too and ran true

The only issue with the course from my perspective was the sand that was used in the some of bunkers, the little stones made it appear if sharp grit sand (building sand) have used. This definitely took away from the experience of returning to Belton Eoods and playing the Lakes.

Still would recommend the course though

Having not played the Lakes course for a number of years I was blown away by how good the course was …. So much better than I remembered

Greens were fast and true, bunkers were great and fairways lush

A top top course

My first time playing this course which was to see if I would book a weekend golf break there for our big society. The course was very nice, not excellent but very nice. It matched the typical hotel dual course layout, nothing too hard and nothing too quirky, just very nice holes and layout. Certainly somewhere we would consider for a golf break as its slightly cheaper than the (better) more expensive options of Arden, Carden and Slaley, Nottinghamshire. Decent pro shop, pleasant staff and as we were first out, pace of play excellent. I would certainly play the Woodland course to see what thats like (we played the Lakes) but when considering a golf break part of me thinks I'd pay £40 more to play some of the other options which are slightly better manicured and more difficult courses.

Enjoyed an excellent course, only downside being extremely slow greens, which nonetheless were smooth,

Course I’m good condition

It’s a great lay out and a good yardage off the back tees and whilst they’re not bad the greens let the course down they’re just too slow it was hard work getting the ball to the hole but it’s a really enjoyable course to hit your ball around

Enjoyed a round of gold on the Lakes course, very enjoyable and well worth the money, will play again.

My round today was spoiled by the work carried out on the greens leaving them very bumpy and sandy. Some of the Tee of areas need urgent repair (Quite bare of Grass or uneven) But the remainder of the course was a pleasure to play. This being our second time this year, again spoiled by the greens and a hold up of groups playing the 13th. Going to wait to give the Greens time to settle before visiting again. We had traveled a 80 mile round trip and have been left as if a more local course to us would have given us better golf for our day.

Played a few times good course and a very good price with the early tee off. Greens are good and the fairways looked after well with a good even grass cover

Nice course well looked after good fairways nice greens with a variety of hole lay out
