My partner and I enjoyed our golf.

My partner and I enjoyed our golf, The conditions were perfect. We were precisely on time teeing off, we remained on time at each of the time checks. We did receive some criticism from the green keeper for holding up play. He had been mistaken as we had let a single play through as did the crew following us. That caused a bunching up. We were never caught up, our round was clear!!! A small point just one that took the shine off a little. This was the first time I'd ever played a full eighteen holes. Having received coaching then practise on the Par 3 at Chessfield Downs. Perhaps our mistake was playing at the weekend. We had sought advise from the club to be told that Sunday afternoon from 14:00 hours would be a quiet time to play.

Other members on the day were friendly

This course has great views of the country side and the greens are in top condition. Very easy course to find your way around as it's quite open. A lovely days golf in the sun and no wind.

Nice course but needs tlc

Played Chesfield Downs on 9/5 nice course, not too crowded or busy on course but car park rammed! Business and gym clients?

Course was very dry, fairways were bone dry and without water will be cracking up in no time! Bunkers weee rubbish, not much sand in many, rock hard underneath what thin sand there was, could do with attention!

Would play again, especially on a TeeOffTimes deal, not worth full price

Good course slow play

I like the course. Nice greens and overall condition is good. A good amount of variability but It's pretty open so it does tend to get windy! Fabulous on a nice sunny day during the week when it's not too busy. Shane about the slow pace of play today - gave up after the front 9!
