Reviews
Good conditions even in winter.
I have visited this course in every season and can say it has always been a very extremely playable course. The presence of ponds, streams and lakes make for a good challenge. And makes you get creative in windy conditions. Will be a regular visitor.
Had I lived slightly closer I may have become a member.
Great winter course
Great winter course greens had been top dressed but were still running true and in good condition.
Old boys open
Nice course greens in good condition pace ply was good throughly recommend a visit and will come back and play again
Rather windy
It was a pleasure to play Lydd golf course this Wednesday. Apart from the 30mph winds for most it. Course was in very good condition, as good as we have played this year. Nice to see the bunkers with a decent amount of sand in each of them. Very impressed with course. To top it off they Mcewans export on draft. We had a great visit
Not much to fault !
Nice windy day at Lydd averaging 25mph which made things interesting. Bunkers could do with some topping up and filtering but apart from this the course is in excellent condition. Great value and good food is always available in the club house, from very friendly staff. Totally recommended if you are in the Rye East Sussex area.
Always a challenge
Always love playing at lydd. Challenging course even without the gale force winds coming from the coast. Course was in excellent condition.
Lydd
For value Lydd is tough to beat. It's a hard course especially off the white tees. Lots of water and rough if you find it.
10/10 for value though.
Lydd rating
Recent course alterations have not improved the course original layout was much better than now.
Still broke 100
The bunkers need some major love but the course is good in general. Rough is a bit brutal in places
A 1-ball shouldn’t take 5 hours
Held up by 4-ball who believed they were not allowed to let faster players through due to playing in a competition. Never heard of that before in my life! Couldn’t have been much of a competition as I pointed out where a 30 yard drive ended up as they walked by it and they just said throw us the ball! They could barely play, and took an age to play a hole. Ended up by skipping onto different holes on the back 9 so I could actually get home before it was dark. Totally ruined the day.
Very windy but lovely course
Very straight forward course for a beginner but if windy it will catch you out very well kept even in the winter
well maintained winter course
Nice course , reasonably priced , very good condition for a wet mid january .
Only negative was that play was slow and backed up on every hole , i think a society was playing earlier and unfortunately they do not hurry round , managed to get in 11 holes then called it a day but a pleasant 11 holes all the same .
Not bad for the price
It's a decent course and the team there are really helpful and nice. The course was waterlogged a lot in places due to the bad weather we have had in the country recently, the holes were very similar a lot of the time but might be better in the warmer months when all the bunkers are not small ponds.
First time playing
Really enjoyed the course. The conditions were dry and low 20’s but very very windy which was a learning curve! I thought the course was really fun and a definite test of links golf. So many tees where driver was not an option so your course management has to be spot on. The wind plays a huge factor. Fairways were perfect, tee boxes perfect. Only downside was, in my opinion, the greens. They were a bit bobbly in places but having only played once I don’t know if this is the norm. But overall the course and experience was, I thought, really enjoyable and I will be playing again soon. I would urge others too also.
Not a good Day
Overall very disappointing course in poor condition bunkers full of water greens being treated so more like putting on roadway speed of play unbelievably SLOW
