Always a challenge

Another tough but enjoyable round negotiating the trees and ditches with the usual mixed results

The course was a bit tired probably due the large number of people playing since Covid with some greens fairways and tee boxes not in the greatest condition

It was also wetter and muddier than I was expecting considering we hadn’t had that much rain recently

The restaurant and pro shop staff were as friendly and helpful as ever

Challenging but Highly Recommended

Lovely course but important to hit the ball straight. Its not a " driver blast" course. For me there is too many ditches and the bushes require a massive pruning exercise.

Lovely club house and food and great view to watch players coming up the 18th. Some lovely picturesque green positions.

Nice Course Shame About the Tees

Bulbury Woods is always a nice course to play, greens are in great condition but the Tees are somewhat different which is a shame. A few are fine but most are like playing off farmland which makes the round of golf a little disappointing, but this will not keep us way from playing the course again as i am sure it is a short term issue.

We will be back
