Boothferry Golf Club

Arrived at the golf course on a warm sunny Sunday afternoon and there was a few cars in the car park, now I know why because the golf course is in very poor condition. Played it last year in the spring and it was very good and the course was in very good condition, but a year further on and it is now the complete opposite, The fairways were overgrown and there was grass cuttings left on most fairways to bury your ball even if you hit a good tee shot. The semi rough was overgrown on each fairway and it was virtually impossible to get your ball out of due to it being so thick. The greens were bone dry and very patchy with weirds growing and there were totally unplayable, the worst I have ever putted on. It is such a shame and very sad because the layout of the course is good and there is some cracking holes, but due to the poor state of the course I will not be returning soon. The course needs some serious investment and effort to get back into some playable condition. I hope the course does improve because it is very sad to see it’s poor state at the moment.

Fairways and greens were decent but there was so much grass cuttings everywhere it made finding your ball incredibly difficult even when you saw where it went.

Played this course a few times and this is the worse course I’ve played this year. The fairways where not cut and has soon as you come off the fairway your in the rough. Other parts of this course is in disrepair it’s a shame as I’ve never seen this course so bad. Did not enjoy the round at all will not be coming back unless the owners take more pride and do more course maintenance. This course is shocking save your money and go elsewhere.

I've been playing this course for 15 years now and this is the worst I've ever seen it , I losr 2 balls on fairways as the grass is that long, the first and second cut is wild

Everywhere you looked people were searching for balls

The greens were bare and cracked nearly impossible to putt on

It's a shame really as this is one of my favourite courses , and I won't be playing it again until it changes hands

Fairways needed cutting. Greens were inconsistent and the rough was very rough. Take plenty of balls.

Overall course was very nice and we enjoyed our round. Excellent value for money. One negative being there was no first cut just off the fairway, meanIng you were frequently punished and searching for balls when you were only inches from the fairway. If this was addressed there would be no negatives.

Nice course to play with lots of little streams that criss cross around the course. The greens could do with a little attention but overall a lovely course.

Course was unplayable with the standing water and bog like conditions.

The tea boxes or winter tea boxes are dangerous with now slippy they were.

And the 3 ball in front were extremely slow and felt like it was purposeful towards the end. From hole one we were behind them right at the tea box and never let through.

9 holes played, such a shame as a day we were very much looking forward too

lovely flat golf course some hole are challenging great lay out nice club house & friendly staff i recommend this course ive played it twice will be playing again very soon

This was our second time. Everyone we met was very friendly. There was a shortage of trolleys. We could not use our own so we had to carry our trolley bags until the 10th when there were some available.

Course was slightly boggy in places with recent rain but the greens were excellent and the course was a good layout with longer par 4s that we are used to!

We will definitely come again (prepared) and would recommend. Thank you to the lovely members we met who were really welcoming to my wife, daughter and me.

First time playing the course and I was sceptical with rounds being offered as low as £10 on a Sunday without any hot deal bonus.

Upon arrival we were greeted and given a course explanation and a brief history of the course which was a nice touch. The Clubhouse was clean and tidy and a pint was only £4!, no complaints reallt other than the driving range attached to the ground didn't open until 9am due to staffing issues.

The course itself was fantastically designed, it was long and challenging but completely flat. There were 52 bunkers, well positioned to add to difficulty and some well thought out treelines and other natural hazards to make you consider your club off the tee.

We paid £20 for our round and I think I'll some it up by breaking down the quality v design by saying at least £15 of that would be towards the design and only £5 toward the course maintenence.

There didn't appear to be fairways, just a steady 1st cut around the full 18, and the tee boxes (not in use) and greens really needed some TLC, with a proper injection of funding and resource this course could easily be charging around £40/50+ a round.

All in all a really enjoyable round, would definitely recommend to others and will be heading back soon, really liking forward to a summer round at Boothferry to see if they address some of the quality concerns with the change in conditions.

Lovely golf course challenging well looked after staff very friendly and was made very welcome I will be playing again very soon

Staff let us go off first and as a two ball were round in just over 3 hours.

Course was good for time of year and the weather we have had.

Staff friendly and helpful.

Really enjoyable day.
