Donnington Grove Country Club

Course held up well for the time of year. Greens, fairways and bunkers were good considering the recent rain and it being February. Imagine it issue very nice in the summer.

Pace of play was horrendously bad however. 5 hour round

Course held up well considering the current weather. Greens, fairways, bunkers all better than you would expect for Feb golf.

Pace of play was horrendous however. 5 hours to play a 3 ball, course was backed up and barely got round despite a 12:40 tee time

Considering the persistent rain 24hrs previously the course was wet underfoot on most holes but that didn’t impede good golf only distance with reduced roll out on fairways. The geese are nice to look at but have natural consequences when looking for and playing your ball on back nine holes near lakes. An enjoyable round followed a nice pint in the bar

Disclaimer - Played this course during winter conditions. The good: course layout is great. Challenging but fair. Things were a bit soggy but that’s expected. Bunkers are hard but understandable considering the unending rain. The bigger issue is the greens. Generally they are good but a handful have some bald spots which was likely a winter fungus issue. At least that’s what I’ve seen before. That said, the issue was clearly identified and being fixed. Once the weather warms up, I think this will clear up nicely and the greens will be amazing. Even with the greens I highly recommend the course and intent to play it a lot!!

Course in fantastic condition, amazing views and great facilities, be prepared for very long walk and very long hard holes!

Very very long and tough course to play in wet wintery conditions, some magnificent view on front nine holes too.

Playing this beast in the winter is a challenge but worth it. Very wet conditions still playable.

Loveky warm welcome on arrival and also in the bar after the round

We will be back but prob wait for some drier conditions

Despite the heavy rain, this course still showed its self to be a beautiful challenging facility. Was a bit water logged here and there, but didnt really effect anything. I would 100% recommend a buggy, few holes have a decent trek from green to tee… great course, would be back tomorrow if it wasn’t for work 🤣

Beautiful course , in very good condition especially considering recent weather conditions!!

Went with the mindset of beating 85 😂

Dont think so !

Woild have done well to beat 90 !

Will definitely return and look forward to the challenge again !

We had previously played this course midsummer and had a very enjoyable round . This time played in late October and the course was very wet and soggy underfoot , many fairways had not been cut so there was no roll at all and this made a long course seem even longer. As the round progressed it just got tiresome and not enjoyable at all . The condition of the greens was still good though.

A good find, fully playable despite the biblical rain in previous days, no plugged balls, wet under foot on areas but fully understandable given the conditions.

Course has a few long walks between holes, but allows a sense of peace. Was busy and slow at times, lots of backed up groups, but never more than another group ahead of the tees. Would love to try here in the dry.

Good pro shop, friendly lady and the greens are spot on, well done to the greenkeepers....thank you

This is a long but rewarding course. Expect to walk some distance between some tees (e.g. 8th to 9th is a couple of mins and likewise 9th to 10th). But the course is top notch (at least of the courses I’ve played). The greens are immaculate, the fairways are decently wide, the sands are big and there is the odd water hazard. Highly recommended. Just give yourself 4-5hrs.

5.5 hours because of the 3 4balls in front who were not regulars either. Still really enjoyed the course and would definitely return.

Enjoyable day at Donnington grove. Fortunate to be playing the week after a pro qualifier immaculate.
