A few tweaks needed

Friendly staff, good course layout and good value for money.

This is the 2nd time I’ve played and both times the pace of play has been slow.

The course could do with a bit of TLC, the grass is too long when just off the fairway and the tee boxes need a tidy.

Overall, would play again for the money.

Despite the weather course played very well

Only negatives were dog walkers in middle of fairway and allowing dogs to run on greens

Excellent layout, but…

First time being back at Kilton for a few years. Course is short in most places but still a challenge, hole layouts are different across the course which made it enjoyable. Greens are not in good condition, playable yes but need help. Respectfully the £13 green fee was accurate, wouldn’t pay more. Realistically if you’re looking for a bit of a “practice round” (without putting) I would recommend.

Best Municipal course within 100 miles !

This has to be the best municipal course within 100 miles !

Greens soft and true, fairways lush.

The only downside is the bunkers could do with plenty more sand in them but other than that, absolutely amazing coirse, clubhouse and facilities ! Beautiful !

Played in a 4 ball

Very pleasant day, started with breakfast, followed by a round of golf and a couple of drinks afterwards.

For a municipal course it is in an OK condition and the layout makes it interesting.

Fantastic value for money definitely be going back.

Don’t bother

Greens were poor and the rough was disgusting. Slightly miss hit a shot or hit a long drive and wave good bye to your ball as you won’t be finding it

Decent course for the money

Enjoyed playing here and would come back. Staff very friendly, greens a bit slow and tee bays not the best condition.

Unfortunately, the round was spoilt by 2 x 4 balls not letting 2 balls through so we were backed up on tees.

This also meant the kitchen had shut for food by the time we got back.

A Friendly Welcome

My playing partner and I enjoyed our first visit to Kilton Forest.

The fairways are nice and wide and there's a variety of holes to maintain interest.

We felt welcome and look forward to returning soon.

Value for money

Decent course for the money. Could do with a few signs for the next hole here and there but it was quite busy so I managed to follow the group ahead. Looked like a wide range of golfing ability players on the course so as a beginner I didn't feel out of place.

Don't miss the fairways

First time on this course and all in all enjoyed it .

Greens are in great nick as are the fairways but everything is difficult to find your ball in so expect to lose a couple.

Will I return , yes probably

Windy weather
Used cart

Can't complain for the price!

Booking the course through here for 2 of us = £24 with booking fee, you can't complain really to get 18 holes for £10. The course itself is okay, a tad dry in places & the par 3's were relatively easy/not difficult. The course is well spread out, very open with limited tree's covering each hole. Only downside is no driving range. There's a chip play but is very small and same as putting practice, if overcrowded there's not much you can do.

Oh Dear...

Cannot fault the clubhouse or pro shop in any way, always welcoming. Have played the course a few times in the mornings usually which I would recommend because played later in the day and wasn't a good experience....the amount of dog walkers was horrendous and all were off leash and the owners didn't care where they ran about, after school time there were kids running about, riding across greens and into bunkers and they took a flag away on the hole we had just tee'd off on and gave us the finger ! Some of the dog walkers carried a club and were hitting random balls down fairways and one even off a green, players sneek on without paying and simply walk off near the 18th tee via a path onto the car park of the playing field at the side of the course, the club has no grip on this what so ever, BPL owned and council maintained. Take plenty of balls because if you stray into the rough its gone, period. I suppose you get what you pay for if you do decide to pay but make sure you play before schools out people !
