Cleobury Mortimer Golf Club - Foxes Run Course

I don’t like to leave bad reviews but I feel so disappointed with my visit I think it should be brought to the club’s attention.

Two of us visited the course on April 3rd 2023 booked through Golf Now. We paid the full green fee so it was not a reduced price

We played Foxes Run for the first nine and Badgers set for the back nine.

The first warning sign was the first tee was off a mat many more holes were also mats.

The fairways were very wet and muddy so the grass had not been cut I would say for several days.

On reaching the green we found they had been hollow tined so covered in 1cm holes. While playing the first the green keepers covered the second green in sand and then continued to cover the others during our round.

Many areas around greens were also water logged.

When we arrived at the pro-shop no mention was made of conditions.

I understand courses need work I also understand you cannot control the weather. However when the course is in this condition the club should either:

Reduce green fees

Remove the course from Golf Now until maintenance is finished.

Put warnings about conditions so it’s then up to you if you want to play.

On the upside the weather was excellent and the course very quiet, probably for good reason. Hence I gave two stars not one.

Played fox and badger great course greens in good condition grass a bit long on fairways but we enjoyed the round

Played on a very cold day everything was frozen but in great shape. Friendly welcome, interesting course with some nice shots over water. Definitely be back

Only issue is that I had 3 balls stolen from the middle of the fairway by crows which was annoying!!!!

really enjoyed the course fox greens had been spiked so made 1st 9 difficult but deer played really well. bunkers a bit hard but had a great time. food after was amazing and a great price..

Good course with enough shape to keep the wide range of abilities and hitting distances in our four ball thinking. It's all maintained well and the food and drink in the club house is good. We visited as change of scenery from our usual club and drove 50 mins, for the price point it was really worth it.

Hadn't been to Cleobury for around 3 or 4 years' we we looking forward to playing again and with the £22 price tag a nice bonus:).....Normally around £30 which is a little steep.

Enjoyed playing apart from a 4 ball that were holding up so many groups 5th hole had 3 groups on the hole and 2 on the tee ( looked like they had never played before and no idea about calling groups through) so we skipped 7 8 9 and played them after' play from there on was fine

Interesting course, lots of dog legs, great condition, not to tough

The greens are terrible and really let the course down. The fairways are still a bit rough from the drainage put in 2 years ago. Imo the price is too high for state of the course at the moment. However the layout is very good.

Nice course but greens very sandy on the day we played.

I couldn’t play as I came down with COVID. I rang your helpline. I was in a queue the message was that if I hung up I would be rung back. This did not happen. I obviously couldn’t play so overall not happy.
