Forest of Dean Golf Club

Being quite local I’ve played this course many times, tee times are squeezed in every 7 mins and the first hole is a blind shot par 4 with a bell, it’s just not feasible for tee times to stay on time, quite often there will be 24 people on the 1st tee, ridiculous booking system

The staff were friendly and informative - really efficient!

The course was nice but a little criss-crossed.

The course was oversubscribed - the result was slow play, queuing and some irritation amongst players. The gap was,I think, 6 minutes - not really feasible for 4-balls!

Pity because the course looked good but we gave up after 9 holes - 2hrs 25mins was enough for us!

A nice course with plenty of variety. The greens were a bit slow, possibly recovering from maintenance, but overall a good afternoon of golf at a very reasonable cost

.

Really good course, have just seeded the greens though so don’t expect your putting to help you round :)

This is a little Gem of a course, only let down and a minor point is work being carried out on the 10th tee, winter mat in place making it a difficult tee shot being blocked off by trees

Course was In excellent condition. Greens superb. Will definitely be going back. Good value for money

Wet day and week in general but whole course played very well, mix of challenging holes and some simpler ones. Club pro was very helpful and pointed out certain things to navigate the course well and quickly. Will definitely be back with such a good price of £16pp

Great course, the greens were the greenest and quite perfect,

Beautifully course, would definitely play again, just a bit far for us to travel - 92 miles,

May consider overnight stay at the hotel

For the money, I would definitely recommend this course to anyone. It was in good condition although the greens rolled a little slow, which was to be expected at this time of year. Will definitely be coming back soon

Reasonable parkland course with a few interesting holes and features. For the most part open and forgiving for higher hanidcappers. Made for an enjoyable round, if not a memorable test of golf. Not the easiest the navigate first time, with a few unmarked tee boxes. Greens and fairways in decent condition.

Still a few winter tee boxes in play which was disappointing. Good value at 15 pound and a great place to play if you’re looking for something at the easier end of the spectrum

Course in good condition. Greens.are very well cared for. Play slow took 35 minutes longer than previous time due to slow play and we were a foursome always having to wait

Perfectly acceptable condition, but one area of course very clogged with tees and criss-crossing fairways that caused delays and was potentially hazardous, especially for a new visitor.

Slow play an issue, although I guess Sunday lunchtime is always busy so I imagine later in the day would be quicker.

Despite these issues, well worth a visit- some interesting holes and good use of water hazards.

Bar terrace a lovely sun trap!

Played course in good weather. Course looks in great shape from a distance but greens a little patchy in places.

Well marked out yardage, holes etc for first time playing.

10th hole tee is such a let down looks just surrounded by dead ground and playing of a temporary mat which isn't big enough to stand on.

Not sure if a problem all the time but spent over an hour waiting overall probably closer to 2. There were 7 groups on 2 holes at one point

Course is generally really well presented. It has generous fairways and decent sized greens but plays a little tougher than it looks. Disappointing that there were still 2 or 3 winter tee mats in use, the only other slight negative is that the greens were a little slow and bobbley. But overall nice course and great value for money

Great course I would happily go back and play it again
