Shambles

Greens are absolutely disgusting. Fairways are basically rough, pro shop…. What pro shop? Only 3 selection of balls available all Srixon.

A bit of weird one but got to the 12th and realized the mini cheddars they sold me were out of date 🤢

Nice Parkland course

Had a very nice round on a picturesque course. Fairways were in good condition and the layout of the course was challenging but fair. Weather was excellent which made for a nice day. Staff were friendly there, and we would have stayed for a drink after but chose to visit pubs instead (for keg beer). Would be happy to play this course again and had a good experience there overall. We hope to return.

Potentially a good course but……

I played Gatton Manor a few years back in appalling conditions and thought it would be good to play again sometime in hopefully better weather.

Whilst it was sunny on the day there had been a lot of rain leading up to the day and as such they weren’t able to cut the rough as it was too boggy. Unfortunately they also made all the fairways narrow which meant a lot of time was spent looking for balls and many lost balls

Still think it could be a great course to play but it is too tough in this state for the social golfers that myself and my group and we won’t be playing again there any time soon.

The main bar area is also closed for renovations but the little shop they had was good enough and the sausage roll was great.

Wet. Long. But beautiful

This course will be great to play in the summer. Great design on a few holes. It’s a very long course and we played in bad conditions. A couple of holes were verging on unplayable. A few greens were flooded. I’d recommend avoiding in bad conditions. But we will be back.

No good in winter

I can see this would be a lovely course in the summer. Some great looking holes and challenging. Absolute mud bath in the winter though and unplayable. Avoid it in wet conditions.

Thank you for taking the time to review our course and provide us with valuable feedback from your experience.

Sadly with the extreme dry spell we had in the summer our planned autumn renovations were put back to the middle of September which sadly coincided with your visit to us.

We trust your next visit to us will be with much improved playing services away from renovation times.

We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Fun course but tired

Played in a mid week 10am two ball and the course was a good challenge that you will certainly play better the second time you go. The entrance to the course and Manor House is very appealing but when you look a bit deeper, it needs investment to modernise the facilities. Alternatively, it just needs some good tlc. I don’t think management have played the course recently as they will see many things that could be improved with little work or money but they would increase the overall experience for all.

We spoke to some of the senior members who said it’s been quiet recently and that they struggle for new members and it certainly felt like this.

The course had some great holes and at points was in good condition considering the weather recently. However, tee boxes were a mess, signage was not clear enough and a course guide is a must for some of the holes that dog leg.

Shame that the bar was not serving food afterwards at around 2pm.

I’d go back again as only £30 but this course could justify asking for £40-50 a round if they made some key improvements.

Thanks for taking the time to review the course. You've touched upon some great points in your review.

We agree that Gatton on the whole needs investment.

From the 1st of May 2022 Gatton have new managing partners. They, like you can see and have bought in to the potential of Gatton Manor. They are investing substantially in the course, the hotel & clubhouse facilities. These will be in phased in over the next few years and will include various course improvements such as drainage and irrigation throughout the course. New course signage to coincide with our rebrand. Widening and lengthening our tee boxes for improved durability and sustained grass growth as well as looking to invest in a complete new fleet of green keeping equipment. We have also talked about switching the course round which is delaying us getting some course planners. I do appreciate how useful these can be for any course but especially playing Gatton for the first time.

I can only apologies regarding our kitchen being closed on the day you came. The hospitality industry has been hit hard in terms of staff and Gatton has experienced its own fair share of challenges in that department. I can assure you our food is cooked fresh and beautifully served. I would invite you visit us again soon and maybe touch base with us prior to booking to ensure we can provide you some wonderful food options.

Kind regards
