Cannock Park Golf Course

I live about a 10 minute drive from this course is geographically it’s great for me. I wasn’t expecting Augusta but it was half decent.

Pros

- economically priced

- decent greens

- challenging holes

- staff were reasonably friendly

- good parking

- tesco nearby for refreshments

Cons

- Perhaps I’m not the most observant of folk but the layout and general signposting for next tee location is in my opinion, very poor.

- I understand this is a Muncipal course but I played 18 holes today and had 1) a small child run onto the green, pick up my ball and run off. 2) dog walkers walking straight up the fairway 3) general public walking along fairways/generally not being very courteous

All that said, for the price, and distance from where I live, I would return, but only for those reasons.

- people trying their luck at a free game and interrupting yours

Really great course with some challenging holes and a couple of large par 4s! Will definitely be back to beat the score!

As a fairly newbie golfer (play no more than 10 times a year), and having only played par 3s until now I was almost blown away by this course.

The course is clean and tidy, the greens well maintained, although cut a little higher than I've played on) and the layout brilliant.

There are a couple of daunting holes, the first with its dog leg left over a ditch and a couple where the green is not in view make for a challenge for anyone (I'm glad I was part wrong someone who has played there regularly).

For a municipal course I was expecting the bunkers to be in poor condition, the greens to be covered in pitch marks and litter everywhere. That's credit to the green staff and also the players who regularly use the course.

No par 5s, but a couple of the 4s are decent length and the 3s are tricky, especially the 18th which has just the green to aim for.

Will be back as soon as possible.

The course was in excellent condition the greens were the best for a long time. Had a great day with my son . Excellent.

A smart short course that has some real plus points. The cost of a round and greens are a positive for this course.

It is strange that you can have so many people walking across a golf course while playing and also a little worrying. No par 5’s is disappointing but I can’t be to harsh on this course.

If your new to the game then this is a good course to play and build confidence on.

Nice muni course in good condition with some pretty holes and some qwerky ones too. Good pace of play and friendly golfers. No par 5s.

Public far too close to the course and paths cross fairways with blind tee shots. Trees need taking back as overgrown on course. Tees are in poor state with trees affecting swing and not flat, particularly ladies tees. Very tricky to navigate if you don't know where you are going, even with map on scorecard. Great value for money.

Enjoyed round, but probably would not be back.

Haven't played the course in 3 years but I will be playing again soon as its in excellent condition and has matured beautifully

Great course, well looked after the greens are nice compared to some courses I've played on. Some tricky holes but ain't that what we need on golf courses. Staff are friendly n very helpful I'd give it a 8/10

Course is part of a larger Leisure complex.

There is no bar due to this and no obvious changing facilities near to the reception which is tucked away at the rear of the building.

However the course which has no par 5’s was in great condition and is a great challenge for all handicaps.

Whilst playing saw a few dog walkers and person cutting across pathways across the course but this did not slow down our play.

Greens were in very good condition.

For the price paid thought it was amazing value for money and will play here again.

Nice short course with a few challenging holes with fun pin positions.

Really enjoyed playing this course. Regardless of the bad reviews this is a well kept municipal course, forgiving and very enjoyable to play. I've played it twice this week and will return for a couple of rounds next week too. For a fee of £11 for eighteen holes it's worth every penny! Take no notice of the "golfing snob fraternity" I would highly recommend.

Great value for money, with excellent staff both in the pro shop and on the course. The green staff are working very hard to continue to improve this very attractive compact layout.

Overall this course is ok. No par 5 hole, greens and fairways were hard and bouncy on that day. At one hole, my driver hit a 300 yards long, as the ball hit the fairway and bound forward for another 100 yards. Flags also missing from some greens. But overall good value course as I booked that online and only paid £6.
