New Forest Golf Club

First time here and enjoyed. Helped at main clubhouse. Course quite nice to see ponies and deer. Surprised at poor reviews unless from those privileged to play at posher courses. This is great for me as scorecard and phone helps you around. Some good challenging holes and because of little or light rough quite open from many tees. Yes some rough patches small greens but felt they played pretty well. Yes if you want well tended conditions play the main course don’t get confused like some of the reviews here but you’ll pay more to do so.

Lovely course if you want a relaxing time nice and flat the odd bunker in the way but overall good course lovely staff very helpful and warming

Extremely friendly staff and warm welcome - dry conditions at the fairways but good conditioned greens, some teeboxes need maintainamce.

The Ponys at the course were a special experience but this might be when you play in an national Park.

Never played in a national Forest before and Horses in the Green are very special - dry conditions are managed as well as they could, extremely friendly staff and good restaurant.

Arrived 15 minutes before my Tee time, booked in at the pro shop with a lovely welcome from staff who helped with the course layout and tee positions. Met a few members whilst playing between tees who where all friendly and informative, great watching the horses walking about on the course. Would highly recommend and great value. Stopped for a drink whilst marking my card and again a lovely welcome.

I was on a camping holiday with family in the new forest and always take my club's looking for a round or two and had a lovely afternoon 😊

Very pleasant game, really enjoyed the game. A litt But slow as we were a pair following a 3 ball and a 4 ball, so to be expected. Very dry as all courses at present.

Greens were very good and ran true.

Great friendly staff and a very reasonably priced bar.

Will definitely be revisiting.

The course is in a great condition. The staff are friendly and the 19th hole are very good.

The course was in a very good condition. The staff are nice and it has a good bar.

Stunning golf course in the heart of the New Forest in Hampshire. Largely open with a few clusters of trees but hardly anywhere to actually lose a ball. Beautiful scenery and 18 great holes!

Warning: wild horses on the course may impact which tee box you can use. Had to play from the reds for 2 holes because we didn't fancy fighting 3 horses for the yellow teebox xD course layout is confusing for first and second timers as they're limited on the amount of signage they can use but there's a handy little map on the scorecard! Amazing day out and can't wait to play again!

Fantastic course for beginners, very forgiven, wide open fairways, no rough as the horses keep it down ( didn't lose a single ball) great location in the new forest, greens in great condition and the weather was perfect for golf.

Good value £34 with golf now.

Will go again

New Forest Golf Club is in a unique setting, ponies roaming the course (which was a nice novelty), friendly staff, a traditional clubhouse, and good trolley hire. The course is fairly straightforward, but the fairways were often difficult to distinguish and the greens were not in great condition. The dry ground made it quite unforgiving, so you had to strike the ball cleanly. Overall, it was adequate, but I didn’t feel it offered the best value for money and probably wouldn’t play there again.

Played this on a weekend of the wettest of weathers.

5 holes were closed andthere were a couple of temporary greens and understandably some tee mats. However we played had a lot of fun and were made to feel very welcome. The course permitted us to play additions holes to make up for those closed.

Overall - given the weekend was so wet. I was keen to play and I was a visitor I can’t fault it.

Will return when a bit drier to ensure I can try the other holes and to see if the lack of a 3 club wind makes my score any better.

Lovely traditional style course, could definitely do with better signage for each hole, was hard to find the right tees. One very rude elderly member spoiled our round hurling insults as we struggled to find the next tees, weren't friendly at all. Otherwise great underrated course!

Considering recent weather and amount of rain that has fallen arrived to find course fully open with only two temporary greens. Other local courses had sections closed and more temporary greens. Staff were welcoming and advised on tees and layout. Pace of play good, no hold ups. Fairways playable and not to muddy. Greens were cut and playes very well, quite quick on certain holes. 18 holes completed in just about 3 hours 20 minutes and equipment just needed a quick wipe befire putting in car. Sunny day and playing well made tgis a good visit.

Dry weather recently made the course virtually impossible. Very open with rock hard tight lies. Green were small, average and impossible to hold shots on. Course is short and definitely aiming at societies, mid to high handicappers. Wasn’t fun due to the nature of the course. Lovely wild horses roaming about but the golf wasn’t fun. Tee boxes were struggling, a lot were just piles of sand! Won’t be rushing back at £40. £20 a maybe
