Ilford Golf Club

Ilford is a great value course that I probably play every few weeks. It's excellent value and a twilight round is often very quick. The greens and fairways are excellent but it's let down by the parlous state of the tee boxes and the penal state of the rough, just off the fairways. They tend to leave the mowed grass on the ground and it just swallows balls that should be findable. It's incredibly frustrating.

It's a short course and for £20 you can't complain too much, it's just frustrating that it could be excellent if they just did a little bit more maintenance around the edges. Pace of play is absolutely great, we whizzed around in 2:30 as a two ball and it's generally a similar pace on weekdays.

Well kept course in good nick good value for money

Worst golf experience of my life, do not play here

Really interesting setup next to the motorway. Seeing graffiti on big concrete structural pillars behind a green almost felt unreal.

Played at 4pm on a Saturday and we only saw a handful of others which made it feel like super chill. Some fun hole designs. Greens were patchy quite a lot but other than the course was in ok condition.

Really close to central London by tube! This course is a nice and challenging one. A few hazards to avoid made it fun to play!

Enjoyable round. Not too hard and not to easy, perfect for an average mid-high handicapper like me. Very friendly staff and great location 10-15 minute walk from Ilford station.

I love coming to this course - there is a lot of diversity here and a lovely clubhouse to hangout in after your round.

Course conditions during the winter were excellent considering and I can't wait to play here in the summer

The only downside to this club is that warmup options are limited to practice nets.

Cannot complain at all, great course and in mint condition during winter as well!

Playing really well even in December so we'll done to all green keeping staff. Fairways as good as ever but unfortunately due to some people not repairing, the greens had too many divot and uneven in places. Will play the course regularly especially when there's more daylight. Well done Ilford gc.

The access path to the course was horribly rutted and muddy. Something quite easy to fix so people can actually get onto the course. The layout is awful, in my opinion. Too many crossing holes and excess walking. Having to walk 150-200 yards to get from green to next tee, walking through other fairways on nearly on the greens and crossing over a massive hill/river really detract from the experience. I have never seen a flag that’s 15ft tall, which you still couldn’t see from the fairway trying to cross the hill/river again. I can imagine that this course is probably in great condition in the summer but the grass hasn’t been cut for a while along the edges and normally easy to find balls that might have been in the second cut were lost or in leaves. Unfortunately, given their summer pricing I won’t be back. The value just isn’t there when comparing other offerings in the region.

Have played ilford a few times in the past. Layout is very confusing and bizarre, but but no means hinders the experience.

My issue is that they seemed to have spent a lot of money on the new clubhouse (which is a welcome addition to be fair), but definitely seems like the course could benefit from a bit of investment. Greens were very poor, and for the short length and quality of the greens keeping, I think you could get much better value for money at other courses nearby

Friendly service, quiet on course and sunny day so was good. Course was Well looked after but a little work could be done on the greens

Course layout was ok but some crossing of holes on the tees which I personally do not prefer..

Hard to find down residential street but club house was new and really nice

Overal would come back

I am always on the hunt for a reasonably priced course and this is one of them! Lovely fairways, quiet and in great condition! Highly recommend
