Great Value

Teed off late afternoon. Course in great condition, tough test, as if you try and take driver off most tees you’ll be blocked out or chipping out, absolute bargain for £13. Course was really quiet so our 4 ball had a perfect round.

True Greens

The course is a challenging one with narrow fairways, fast greens and harsh rough. You have to be on your game with this one because if you’re not on the fairway you’re in dense woods, bunkers or long grass. It’s not one for the feint hearted and probably too hard for the higher handicapper. The greens are some of the best I’ve played in UK this year and expose a poor putting stroke, subtle breaks but run true. I thought some of the fairways were a little too narrow for the length of some of the par 4s and that some of the bunkers crept too far into the fairway on others. The trees could do with thinning out a little bit but as a group of 6 players everyone enjoyed it (even the higher handippers who scored low-mid 20,s on Stableford

Long and tough, a real challenge

Great staff, Justin and Barry in the pro shop will look after you from the off. Some of the narrowest fairways around. You best bring your A game to walk in with a decent score. Great condition, greens lightning fast, fairly flat but some tricky reads. Don’t be fooled into thinking it is over once on Green, you best give them the respect they deserve. Not for players that like to drive and wedge particularly off the whites. Can recommend Bondhay to the straight, long and brave, others beware.

Top credit to the team

Apart from the rain, it was a fantastic day at the course.

Greens amazing and fast like snooker cloth. Trees, bunkers and water challenge you everywhere, but really well looked after.

Would love to go back on a sunny day if they will have us again.

A Gem

Even though it chucked it down for 8 holes I thoroughly enjoyed the course. It was in fantastic condition and the greens were superb, probably the best I've putted on this year. The pro Barry was very helpful as were the kitchen and bar staff. I would definitely recommend Bondhay to anyone without hesitation.
