Needs Work

Nice layout and challenging course.?however needs a lot of work to bring up to standard. Greens poor, bunkers with grass and very wet. I am sure new head green keeper will sort out.

Will look to pay again next year to see improvements.

Okay for money paid

Thank you for taking the time to review Gatton Manor Golf Course.

We wanted to take this opportunity to make you aware of the recent challenges we have faced with our greens and how we are dealing with them going forward and investing in

the whole course in general.

At the back end of July 2021, our greens developed a disease (which is not uncommon) and unfortunately, it was not treated correctly by our then Course Manager. We decided to recruit a complete new greenkeeping team our new Course Manager who started with us in September recognised the disease straight away and has set about controlling it to limit its spread.

We have invested in a whole new fleet of greenkeeping equipment which we expect to take delivery of in June. We appreciate that our golf course has not been presented anywhere to the level of condition and presentation synonymous with Gatton Manor. Our aim moving forward is to take the current layout including the presentation to another level.

We look forward to welcoming you back to Gatton Manor, you will see and enjoy a vast improvement in the quality of the golf course.

Course has deteriorated

Played the course a few times previously, approx. 3+ years ago. Unfortunately the condition of the course has deteriorated which is a great shame as it has such good possibilities.

Disappointed

The greens were in poor condition and all the bunkers were GUR. The course is in need of some TLC but you can see its potential even though there are a lot of blind shots.

Facilities were being renovated (or so it seemed) so not the great experience we anticipated but this was reflected in the rate. The staff were very friendly.

Needs some TLC

The course has the potential to be really good. They layout is good and has plenty of good features. But the course is in a state of disrepair and has not been adequately maintained for what appears to be a long period of time. The bunkers are under GUR and have clearly not been touched for a long period of time as they contained more grass than the fairway. The greens were in very poor condition, even for the winter months. Everything else was all a bit wild and needs some time spent of tidying it up. Overall, the course would be transformed if some time and effort was spent of bringing it back to a good condition.

So much potential

Great course that is slowly being restored to it firmer glory. If you are looking for value for money on a beautifully laid out course this should be top of your list. The tee boxes & greens need some work but it’s playable. Looking forward to playing it again soon.

Poor condition, needs lots of work

Played here before quite a few times but would not return soon

Fairways were like semi rough and the semi even longer.

Bunkers were all GUR which is just lazy way not to have to put new sand in them and carry out any repairs

Greens and tees were only ok but again could do with a bit more TLC

Such a shame to see a nice course not being looked after

A good challenge

Haven't played this course for many years and was surprised how long it was and how unforgiving it was if you were not on the fairway!! We both thought that the layout of the course was good and challenging. The bunkers were in very poor condition but we were advised that they were all effectively GUR.

Gatton

This has been a favourite course of ours for many years and it is disappointing to see how poor a condition it has become. Tee boxes not mown and bunkers not raked (rock hard and unplayable). Greens were ok but there is a general lack of TLC. Very disappointing.

You must try Gatton Manor

We have played Gatton Manor many times over the past 5 years or so and I must say that yesterday the course was in the best condition we have ever seen it..The staff were friendly and helpful. The green fee was reasonable as well.. We will definitely return.

The new owners are doing a great job .

Overnight stay 2 rounds

This is our societies 2nd trip to Gatton Manor for an overnight stay, dinner & breakfast and 2 rounds of golf.

Previous to this meeting we were a little unsure after reading some reviews regarding the current course conditions.

“Greens being in an awful state and unplayable being one that comes to mind”

Staff were so accommodating and willing to help from the moment we arrived right to the end of our stay.

Being honest the greens weren’t in perfect condition and we’re a bit bobbly but they were a lot better than what we expected. We did say that with some brighter hotter weather the greens would look really good. Course is challenging with lots of great tree lined holes. Loved the par 3 4th hole. Green keepers were out and constantly working with freshly cut fairways and rough.

Front of house manager and all bar staff deserve a big thank you for putting up with us and keeping the drinks flowing to make it an even more enjoyable trip

Loved the trip and will be planning a return trip, in the near future. Thanks Gatton Manor!

Great layout, awful greens!

Two of us couldn’t get a morning round at my course, so found Gatton manor at £35. Stunning course to look at and really good layout. Par 3’s especially very strong and picturesque. Sadly, one thing let the place down, the greens. They were very poor. Shame, because if they get that right I would highly recommend the place and definitely go back. I would give them the benefit of doubt and try again sometime, but not until they are sorted. Still decent value for money. Potentially a very very good golf course.
