Brilliant value for money!

Overall this is a great course at a great price. The only thing that lets it down just a little is the state of the greens. Lots of patches/holes. (Most due to lack of care from players not repairing pitch marks) but some very uneven/damaged surfaces to putt on which was frustrating. All in all. 4/5. 👍

Over Priced and Very Poor Condition

Christchurch Golf Centre has good facilities but massively let down by the course. Needless to say I will never play here again! Course layout didn’t correspond to GPS watches. The green keepers that tend this course must either be underpaid or the laziest green keepers!! Greens uneven with chunks taken out of them. Fairways were like a cart path with huge cracks in them. This generated huge uneven bounces . Don’t play this course!!! Oh and it cost £38 for 18 holes!!! Don’t mind paying the money but only if the course is up to it. Feel like I’ve been robbed!!!!

Not the best, not the worst.

Decent set up with range, bar and mini golf. Actual course not the best or in the best condition. Lots of potential though.

Pretty course but not for serious golfers

Course in poor condition. No standards of dress, people with shirts off, football shirts etc lots of children. People who don’t know rules and etiquette everywhere.

Greens ok but fairways were very rough with big channels on them. Not for us.

Best Course!!!!!

Top tier value for money course in the area. Greens are superb! Fairways are looking insane! Perfect for all golfers, challenging in places but very forgiving.

I would highly recommend this course to everyone, you will not find better in Bournemouth!

Very poor course

Almost unplayable, 3/4 of the course had so much water on it, it was so hard to play.

Not even had much rain.
