DONNINGTON VALLEY GOLF COURSE
Excellent, leisurely day. Course in great condition given recent weather. Greens were perfect, fast, but perfect. Staff very friendly and enjoyed the day thoroughly. We were able to play at our pace and were easily let through by members playing in larger groups when needed. Overall would recommend this course to anyone.
Excellent but tough
Excellent condition and well sign posted for next tee box.
Bit samey with lots of trees on every hole.
Hard work walking as very hilly ( hence valey in the name)
Greens best I’ve ever played on.
Winter gem
Great condition for January, never temp greens /tees, some nice challenging holes and some straight forward ones, fairly hilly course back 9 more so, very picturesque. all in all great golf, will definitely return.
Great course.
Course in great condition. Bar not that great, drink and food selection very limited.
Short course but very tricky and a great layout of holes
Donnington
Good day. Just terribly slow, any later wld not have been able to see!!!
Over-crowded… no course marshalling of slow play
If l say a group teed off the 12th… the next 2 groups behind are already waiting at the 12th tee and the next group are coming up to the 11th green!!
A tough course
A decent track with some very tight fairways, however an errant drive doesn't necessarily end up in deep rough. The ball either ends up under the trees or goes onto a parallel fairway. A few blind shots and course knowledge is pretty key to a good score. Signage after playing the short par 3 9th was difficult to find for the 10th and we ended up walking around the car park and back down the main drive. It was possibly my eyesight though..!!
I'd play the course again though and plot my way around the course, the driver could stay in the bag for a lot of the holes and a lower score would probably be the result.
Well worth the money!
Haven't played here for a few years, but always remembered it being a very enjoyable, challenging round. Nothing has changed. They've made some improvements to the first tee, so I didn't go searching in the bush straight away. The course was in excellent condition, fairways were very good, but stray and you can be in trouble, The back 9 is tough if you're wayward off the tee (like me) but adds to the challenge. The lady in the Pro-Shop was incredibly helpful and polite. We had no issues with waiting around, with nobody behind us we were able to play at our own pace. Finished the round in 3 1/4 hours. Only time we hit bad weather was coming up the 18th.
Thoroughly enjoyable, will definitely be back!
Surprised
Sorry to say but the greens are in a truly terrible condition, fairways are okay.
Nice course, but Golf Now let's it down
Firstly ignore the low star rating, this is a great course with friendly staff. The issue is Golf Now don't link with the clubs own booking system. I booked my round Friday but saw a review about this issue so I called the club.
What happens is Golf now gives you a tee time, it goes to the club admin team who then have to check said tee time is available then email the pro shop to book it in. I've had this issue with other clubs which is Golf Now's problem to fix.
But the course is in great condition, the greens were great. My only gripe is the layout is a bit all over the place so grab a course map at the pro shop
Really pretty coarse
Really pretty coarse but can be a bit confusing finding some tee’s if you haven’t got a coarse guide really enjoyed playing here
