Chingford Golf Course
Nice local course but pace was slow
Some of the Tee’s need addressing but overall I do like the course
Slightly untidy but a positive experience
Course is a little scruffy in places but for the price I paid I certainly coudlnt grumble. There was hardly anybody on the course at the time I chose to play so this made the experience very enjoyable. Greens were ok, fairways mediocre, rough not too long. Only gripe was no mention of the tee boxes being out of action on every hole and having to tee off of mats which although were in good condition and on raised boxes still was a drawback. Overall though I was very happy with my round at such a reasonable price for golf.
Chingford golf course
Like this course as it’s close to home and I seem to play well on it. The staff are excellent, very polite and helpful
Question though I would like to get my handicap card marked, how do I do this
Enjoyable day
A very good day out on a sunny day, as the pace of play was good & as a single ball , was waved through by a two ball who were playing at the course for the first time.
This is a nice public course & has some difficult holes.
I do feel there could be better signage towards the next hole, especially to the nineth hole. Also be aware of the odd person crossing various fairways.
I would recommemd any golfer to give this course a try & is very good value for money.
Great apart from Winter tees
Course is in pretty good condition although the tee boxes are all being worked on. Can live with a winter tee however most were on a significant slope
Public field
By a country mile the worst course I’ve ever played. No such thing as a fairway here just a big field essentially. And for £25… terrible value for money.
Granted in winter months you expect some muddy areas, temp greens & tee boxes, but this place doesn’t even look like it’s maintained during summer months. I’ve genuinely played pitch & putt courses in better condition.
Don’t waste your time or money, choose other local courses (Epping, Woolston Manor, Theydon Bois etc).
Goodbye Old Friend!
I've been a 'pay n play' visitor to Chingford for years but this was my last round before I move away - I'm really, really going to miss this course. Epping Forest is a fantastic backdrop for the course and the holes are so varied - it's a great course to play. Not overly long at all, and not overly difficult; it's just a really enjoyable round. So, there were tee mats, it was wet and pretty muddy in parts (but where isn't right now) but the greens were really good considering. Good strategy is need to really score. Stay out of trees and you'll love it too!
And I finally drove the par 4 16th - at last!!
I've loved playing Chingford and I'll definitely come back one day........
Final score 75 (a 3 over round)
Great value for money and picturesque
You'd be pressed to find many better 18-hole courses at this length for the price. Picturesque surroundings once you get deeper into the front 9. Greens on the small side abd holes forgiving. Good for a casual knock around and beginners.
Would play again, but when its dryer
Decent course for the money. I'd look forward to playing it again nearer spring/summer, it was VERY wet and muddy!
Some direction to the next tee would be nice too, especially if you played there before.
I'll be back :)
Poor conditions
To get to every tee box you had to walk through horrendous mud. The fairways were wet, muddy and in awful conditions. I will never play this course again and regret paying £12 for this course.
Worst course condition ever
This course should not have been open let alone charging a full green fee
RARE GAME ON THE EDGE OF EPPING FOREST
We had a pleasant round on a damp day. considering the time of year the greens played very well and the fairways were in good shape.
