Ilford on a Wednesday morning…

Course was empty as expected, greens were rolling pure. The course is short in length but offers a variety of required shots, including shaping the ball and carrying trees/bridges.

Good course layout

Enjoyable course. First time here. Good to see they have a practice net to warm io and a chipping green but the fairways are awful and dry and the greens have multiple divots in them and very slow and bumpy.

Still over all enjoyed the day but not sure if I’d return

Some challenging holes over water

Quite tight layout. Entrance off residential street, was easy to drive past. Enjoyed the day. Friendly staff and good value for money

Very positively surprised

Going into the day with mixed expectations- other reviewers complaining about highway noise, missing signs, and poor conditions in rain - I ended the round with on a very positive note. The course is short, fairways are wide and not much sloped, the sand in the bunkers was dry and very nice to play, and the greens were in excellent conditions. It’s an excellent course to boost self confidence and having fun. It’s also surrounded by tall and pretty trees who absorb a good amount of car noise.

It was sunny, so can’t comment on rainy conditions. But considering it’s central location in London and the fair price for a round, I can recommend the course to anyone.

Untidy course

I was disappointed with the course, some bunkers lacked sand and had weeds. Greens were very dry, some needed a lot of water. The tees were also in poor condition. I will try again next year

The fairways run across each other

Very dry course. The tees are so dry you break the tee putting it in the ground £80 for two. The fairways run across each other so you have to wait for someone on the next hole and the one after to take a shot. The photos aren’t accurate. No water features

Challenging Course

Played today for the first time. We were 2 ladies who struggle to break 100 so are would usually only play from the reds both for our game and to help pace of play. Shocked to be told on arrival that visitors can only play from yellow and when I explained told that we had to play yellow especially as some directors were out playing today.

Course was generally in good condition but some of the greens could have done with some work. Admittedly it's been hot recently but more the sort of greens I'd expect at a pay and play or 9 hole.

Everyone playing was friendly and it was a lovely day so minor gripes overall.

A course where you can carry with now issues

A nice course for golfers of all abilities. There are some hazards, but not too many, so a couple of spare balls will be needed.

There is ample space in the fairways and around the course, some of the holes are not well signposted, but with a little bit of wondering and help from a friendly member you will quickly find your way around m

A nice flat course which will not leave your legs sore by the end of the day.
