Boothferry Golf Club

The reviews I had seen were not great. However as a novice golfer the course was fine. Yes greens not perfect but good value for money. Certainly not as bad as the reviews I read. Would play there again.

Fairways where in good condition. Greens need more attention as it was hard to putt out with the condition of greens

Played the front 9. Round in 2.5 hours had a great game. Some of the greens were having maintenance but didn't affect the game. A recommendation for Boothferry can you sign post the different holes a bit clearer as there was some uncertainty using the map. Thanks will be back!

This course is in desperate need of investment as it is in awful condition. Played here once before when it was frozen and thought I’d give it another chance- big mistake. Grass cuttings everywhere, overgrown tee boxes, overgrown rough, all bunkers had grass in them. The greens were terrible- yellow grass with mud patches all over, holes from what I was told was squirrels, worm casts all over the 3rd green. Fairways are boggy due to having no drainage and have dug in muddy tyre marks from grass cutters. I was told that there was only 2 greenkeepers and even with having only 2 they were part time! I played 11 holes and gave up due to poor conditions making it almost unplayable. Staff were very friendly and the driving range next door is good although all the balls were covered in mud. Would not recommend. This place has potential to be a world class course but it needs proper investment from the owners.

I’ve played here over the Summer, and agree with other reviews it wasn’t looking its best. But I was pretty impressed today (6/10/2024) how much better it looked both on the fairway and on the Greens, facilities a little low at the moment, and the air compressor wasn’t working. Some great deals to play here, but at £23 around, it’s not too bad.

I haven't played this course for many years and it certainly wasn't worth £23 for the round. The greens were shocking, the rough was full of debris and all amenities were either broken or didn't work, the course was reasonably busy as it was a Sunday but the bar wasn't open and they weren't serving any food. What a shame as it used to be an alright course.

Fairways and the course in general is being much better than earlier in the season.

Best thing was it was so dead we flew round before we quit.

Greens were dead and dying in spots while weeds sprouting up.

Overgrown tee boxes.

Dead grass left in fairways.

Practice green was in disrepair.

Great potential for a course but needs alot of tlc.

13 pound hot deals felt scammed. Will not return

Due to wet conditions course not looking it’s best, hope they can get it sorted soon as could be a really nice course

Good value for money

For some context I used to be a member of this course but had to leave as I was re locating.

After reading recent review I was expecting the worse but for £12 for a midweek practise game I thought why not. The best thing about this course was how empty it was and I could take my time and drop balls anywhere to practice.

The greens are not the best but I expected this after reading the reviews and also very hard to differentiate between the fairway and first cut rough and if you are slightly off line and in the rough then it’s game over with little to no chance in finding your ball. Also the dead grass on the fairway I really annoying as well.

I’m not going to slate this course and put it down as it has the potential to be a lovely course but it needs some TLC in the correct areas, it’s not hard to have 18 good greens and sweep up the dead grass. Other course around the area seem to manage it just fine.

This place is a diamond in the rough begging to show its full potential but needs more assistance to do so.

There used to be ample practice areas but they have been filled with new trees.

A very generous 3 star review, I have no doubt this will be commented on and excuses will be put forward but sometimes you need to take accountability and spot making excuse and just do better as this course sadly has went down hill from where it once was.

The course is improving every time I play.

Some of the greens need some work but overall the staff are doing a great job when you consider how bad it had become after the sodden start to the year.

Having played today and also played at the winter period, I kind of understand some of the context posted in the reviews during the winter, but the course did struggle as many others in the winter locally. However, you have to acknowledge that the course today was very enjoyable and has moved on immensely from recent months (you can see the work they are implementing to go from average to good to great, it’s a journey you can see the course is on and worth acknowledging) is it great at present, no, but is the work being completed making it a pleasure to play “for sure” I’m sure over the coming weeks it will improve further to challenge local courses around and move to great

We payed here about 10 years ago & it was in very good condition however having read recent poor reviews we still gave it a go

Very disappointing is a under statement too much long grass everywhere from tee boxes, down fairways, electric buggy was towing

Greens were a disgrace

Lack of maintenance is clearly showing

There were 6 cars in the car park & 9 when we came out that tells a story

18 pound I wouldn't play it if was for nothing

Really disappointed with the course. Played it in winter 2023 and thought it would be a good course in the summer so we went back.

The fairways were like the first cut of rough, the greens were like fairways and the bunkers were out of play.

The fairways and rough were full of mulch too.

I really enjoy the course but it’s frustrating that the rough is ridiculous long and it’s covered in dieing cut grass so balls can be very hard to find winter is covered in leafs but the lay out is fantastic without the silly issues it could be a fantastic course

There is a great course here, but unfortunately it is under lots and lots of grass! Whether that be overgrown, or just the piles of grass cuttings left.

Be prepared to lose a lot of balls!!! And that’s on the fairway too!

Played a few times over the last year and it has steadily got worse each time. With some TLC would be a great course to play , with some interesting and challenging holes. But unfortunately it just seems to be neglected, and in its current condition isn’t even worth £10 a round, let alone the £20+ charged on a weekend.

Praying something is done to improve the condition, as being a local would play here almost every week. But until then, much rather drive 20-30 miles to the many many courses that are looked after.

Grass clippings need to be collected, especially on the fairways. Grass has been allowed to grow too long on several fairways, bunkers are rock hard. Course has deteriorated dramatically from previous years.

The maintenance is extremely poor. There is long grass everywhere, even in the fairway. Indeed there is almost no fairway for a number of holes so we are forced to skip those holes.

One of the reasons for the poor condition of the course is because they use robots to trim the grass. The problem is that the trimed grass are left on the course so they stack up like a couple of feet thick Whenever the ball land on these grass pile, which cover almost the whole course except the Tee and the green area, you can never find the ball. So, you will keep on losing balls for almost every hole, and even if you are lucky to find the ball, you will spend most of the time in looking for balls instead of playing golf.
