Not good

Would of been nice if I’d have known about the course condition before booking, fairways spiked, greens spiked, most holes on temp tees, first hole down to a par 3 because of damaged fairway and I think hole 8 was a temp greene, definitely not worth the money, probably be better in a couple of months.

Great course, nice members, superb practice area

I was adopted by a member on the first tee who was very welcoming and kindly gave advice on how to play each hole.

The practice area is fantastic. Nets, chipping green, putting green, and even an approach practice range - I've never even seen one of these before.

Considering the time of year and the amount of rain we've had recently the course was very playable and in great condition. None of the swamps and mud pits you find at my home course (Sherdley Park).

Great in summer/dry weather but poor after rain.

I’ve played this course in dry conditions and in the wet and it’s definitely a dry weather course. When I played earlier in summer the condition of the course was great with good fairways and excellent greens, but in very wet conditions like this time I played, it’s just not a great course. Waterlogged on some fairways, some greens so wet they had footprints all over them and the 8th had a temporary green that was utterly unplayable. Why not do the reconstruction of the 8th green in mid summer when the fairway will accept a temporary green? Just about worth the £35 fee in summer but in the condition I last played it, £25 tops. Not sure why anyone would be a member here as it’s probably unplayable for a third of the year

Great Little Find

Looking for a last minute booking and found Birchwood Golf Course and gave it a go. Playing a 3-ball, everyone enjoyed it, every hole has its challenge. Will play again, nice little find.

Lovely course, will definitely be back.

Course was very soft when we played. Granted we had a day of rain prior to playing but didn’t expect it to be as soft as it was. Not sure what it would be like in the winter.

With that being said, it’s a lovely, challenging course which makes you use every club in your bag.

There is a great warm up area. Probably the best I’ve been too and the club shop is filled with everything you need. Really friendly gentleman behind the counter who aided us on guidance around the course (as there is a few road crossings) so we weren’t to get lost!

Would highly recommend if looking for a challenge on a new course.

A beautiful course on a beautiful evening

I played in a 3 ball trying to beat our previous weeks score. The course was in brilliant condition, I played well and we had a great round.

Quite a few long holes but very pretty with several ponds and plenty of wild life to see as you walk the fairways.

Definitely recommended
