Bungay & Waveney Golf Club

Unfortunately due to the lack of rain the course has suffered. The greens and the tee boxes are in good condition but the fairways are not good. They are scorched and in a number of cases there are potholes (from rabbits presumably).

That being said its a thinking person's course. I would like to play it again when the fairways are reconditioned and are green. I would certianly play it differently next time. There a number of 'blind' shots that you have to play and if you don't know where the hole is its quite difficult. This is made even harder because the fairways are like concrete and even with a good shot you are likely to ene up in the rough because the ball rolls for ever.

Challenging course with a nice quirky layout in places, particularly around the greens. Tight in places that require sensible club selection off the tee. Good overall condition, that I assume would hold up year round due to the sandy soil. Bargain for the price…well worth a visit.

Played the course for the first time as a visitor on Sunday with a friend. We are both Scottish working in the area in which we are probably spoiled with choice at home which may reflect on this review.

The tee boxes were fantastic, fairways and general areas were quite poor but the fact it hadn’t rained for a number of weeks probably contributed. They were very patchy and rock solid and to be honest there was no benefit in hitting fairways over rough.

The greens were probably the best part of the course which a think reflects the higher price green fees we paid (£45) Sunday afternoon. We’ve played a handful of courses in the area as we have been working down here for around 3 months and these were by far best greens,

The last issue was even although we were allowed to pay on to the course we felt rushed all day as there was a county match behind us. Every other hole a different member of staff was coming out to tell us about this said match and to keep pace of play up. We were held up with a few groups in front of us so was completely out of our control. This took a bit of the enjoyment out our round.

In future I would recommend they don’t allow visitors and social groups right before a county match to avoid any problems.

Played here for the first time. £25 after 3pm price. Personally wouldn’t pay the £40 morning price for this course. Staff in the pro shop were very helpful, gave us a course map (which was needed) and pointed us in the right direction. The course is not particularly long but has several blind shots so prior knowledge of the course is definitely an advantage. Signage to next tee could be better but we managed to find our way round. There were a couple of times where when playing our 2nd shots we weren’t sure which flag we were going for so had to refer to the map. Fairways were very dry but greens were in fantastic conditions. Lots of interesting tricky holes, and bunkers to avoid. Wind spoilt it for us slightly ! Would go here again but only for the after 3pm £25 price

Plated here with my partner as my course was closed due to the weather.

The course was great with the fairways in a very good condition and the greens were a nice pace as well considering the weather we have had recently.

Could not fault anything about the course and thoroughly enjoyed the day.

Played the course for the first time today, and I can safely say it won’t be my last.

The only negatives I have is it was a bit slow going in terms of pace of play. And some holes cross over which I’m not keen on.

Such a enjoyable day.

Started when we arrived and the lady in the pro shop was very welcoming and polite.

We then played 18 holes, the fairways are in great condition. The rough is challenging but fair.

Special mention for the greens. Arguable the best greens me and my dad have ever played on.

Finished the round with a drink in the clubhouse with even more welcoming staff.

Strongly recommended playing this course.

Nice course and conditions was good... Pace of play was horrific... Over 4 hours for 2 of us to do 18 holes where normally be done in a max of 3 hours..

Can't fault the staff or the friendly members stuck behind us.. (there was alot of them equally all getting frustrated too..

The shop had some nice clothes which I was planning on buying but couldn't as it was closing as we finished our round just after 5

Greens and tees in excellent condition despite hot weather

Played here a few times now, the course is very nice and some of the greens are challenging and all in excellent condition. The staff at the pro shop couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. Good value for money too! I would recommend this course to anyone in the area.

Great clubhouse and menu...superb staff

Fairways a bit sun scorched but good nevertheless

Excellent greens

Friendly pro shop staff

greens were excellent but fairways are poor bare patches all over when you hit a fairway you expect a good lie which you dont get here

V good course as most places flooded at the moment.

Staff fantastic.

Great winter course

Good value for money and the greens were good. Bar was open and a good selection of beers to top off an enjoyable afternoon

A pretty course in positioned in the Waveney valley, and surrounded by the Waveney River on the Suffolk/Norfolk border.

Easy walking with sand based ground conditions

so good for drainage.

Greens in excellent condition.
