Drayton Park Golf Club - Drayton Park Course

Got a £25 deal which turned out to be really good value. Played off the white tees which make the course quite a bit longer on some holes. Course in good condition, no complaints. Some really tight holes, well designed and good use of the land available. Made a few strategic mistakes as it was the first time playing, fairways running out sooner than expected etc. One quirky but excellent hole, 9th, where we convinced ourselves we should be playing what turned out to be 11th! Interaction with other players on the course was really positive too.. it was easy to get disoriented between green and tee. Pro shop friendly, didn’t use any other facilities due to lack of time. Overall a really good day out. 😇

All of the course was saturated we lost so many balls in large puddles of water on the fairways we gave up after 9 of the 18 holes we had paid. They should have checked the course before allowing people to play and given how wet and sodden it was cancelled all rounds booked and made refunds. Very poor management to allow rounds to go ahead. Just taking money with no care about peoples enjoyment or safety. Each one of us nearly slid over several times, no fun at all. We will think twice before booking to play this course again.

Overall we really enjoyed our day. However 3 holes closed with no warning after booking the round was a major disappointment when we arrived. But the staff were welcoming and friendly. I will definitely play here again in the summer.

Still very wet in places as you’d expect this time of year definitely hold out for summer golf on this course. The course itself is nicely laid out and has a few water hazards which can catch you out if you’re not careful.

The only down side and why I have rated the staff so low is when we got to the pro shop to pay the member of staff didn’t mention anything of closures wasn’t until we got the the end of the 5th a local member told us 6,7,8 were closed

Layout very good but conditions very wet not sure it should have been open . Great practice range.

The course is well laid out with some challenging holes. It’s more of a links course so be prepared to lose your ball in the long grass. The greens are in excellent condition but after some rain the paths between holes become very muddy. I would like to see the hire clubs updated. They do the job but their age is showing. Maybe someone could sort them out more. My set had two 8s, two putters and too many irons. A decent hybrid would help. The cost of hiring average clubs and a push trolley was the same price as the game. I would think for that price a better set of clubs should be available. I enjoyed playing the course.

Great course layout, greens were large and undulating but rolled well and true, just don’t get on the wrong side of the pins, as I think the greens keeper was not having a good week!! Staff were very helpful and friendly. Green fees were a bit pricey but worth a visit now and then.

Very slow so had to abandon after 11 holes took 3 hours. Was playing as a single and never called through and no marshalls to challenge pace of play. 5- 10 minute wait on every tee.

Very nice and interesting track. Lots of water etc. Will definitely play there again.

£16.99 for a round is not too bad. Annoying however that when I turn up I’m told I can’t use my trolley as it does not have winter tyres on. I have to pay £5 for one of their trolleys. No mention of this requirement on GN, the club website or FB pages. The course was pretty average with some terrible tees. There condition was awful. Fairways were mostly good and greens could be better. Some of the cups were just sticking out above the green by a mm or two in a couple of places. If I was paying £25 I wouldn’t be happy but as I paid £16.99 I can’t complain.

Excellent condition, was not expecting course to be in good condition, due to all the rain in recent weeks, but had a great day, I was impressed with condition as other courses were not fully open in the area, well done to the green keepers, 😁😁😁😁😁😁
