New Forest Golf Club

New Forest GC is a cracker. It’s a quirky layout mixing short par 4s with long par 3s and a couple of reachable par 5s. In dry conditions this is a great test of your skills whatever your hcp. In the wet it’s another matter as Forest ground doesn’t drain well you have been warned.

Booked on Golf Now, travelled almost 100 miles and enjoyed my time at this course. The lady in the pro shop was very helpful even supplying me with a map to help me find the next teeing ground and trust me, I needed it as it was my first time here and I played alone. Some very challenging holes but some easier one too so a good balance overall.

Be aware that cows and horses roam the fairways which can be a bit disconcerting at times. Also there are no water fountains on the course so make sure you stock up on drinks before heading out.

Just played the course for the first time in around 5 years. A hugely enjoyable experience post lockdown with well maintained greens and the usual excellent helpful and friendliness of the staff. It is a mostly flat course, ideal for the less agile. The course is looking good, and playing well. It is fun sharing the course with the local wildlife, with horses ponys and cows all present and correct. My pal and I were able to plsy at a good pace, with a slower gtoup in front allowing us to play through, so etiquette was maintained! Highly recommended.

Very nice course, not too difficult and very open with lots of undulating fareways.

Nice course very rustic not the manicured type but fun to play!

Very much enjoyed my round here. Received a friendly welcome when checking in and encountered very friendly members during my round who all observed course etiquette, insisting on waving me through when there was a gap in play ahead of them. Look forward to playing here again.

Good course and not too difficult. Can be wet and soggy in the winter. There are a lot of ponies wandering around but they are not usually a nuisance.

Played here last winter and was eager to return. However, we were very disappointed. The greens were in desperate need to a cut and some general maintenance which is ironic considering course maintenance had just finished. Hoof marks all over the greens from cows and horses which I understand they can’t control. Very few signs to direct players to the next tee and bushes often block the view to the flags on some holes. However, the staff were very friendly and welcoming and the layout of the course is interesting, particularly the front 9. Back 9 is a tad boring. Needs some investment to improve course conditions

Didn’t play even though we paid the green fee. Our tee time was 1436 right after an all day gents invitation which was not mentioned at the booking stage The course was mobbed and we would have been behind 50 x 4 balls. We decided to cut our losses and play another course for which we got an

earlier tee time and much closer to home.

Really enjoyed this course. Very friendly and welcoming. A good and fair test in a lovely setting. I will definitely be looking forward to playing here again. I definitely recommend playing here to anyone getting the chance to play this course

The only criticism to be made would be my golf play being below my best, otherwise a faultless round on this beautiful Spring day.

Interesting mix of par 5's, 4's and 3's. Plenty of space to open the shoulders.

Had a great day at New Forest Golf Club. The staff and members were very friendly and seemed genuinely pleased we had chosen to play at their club. The course was in pretty good condition considering the long , hot summer we had. Ponies wandering about made it interesting, but fun. Will definitely be back

I really enjoyed golfing at this course.. Great open New Forrest fairways.. Horses and cows dodging my drives and fairway shots...

It was too bad that the fairways had dried out due to heat and lack of rain. The greens were in good shape...

I highly recommend playing there and I will certainly return.

Loverly place, great pro shop, decent track and fairly unique scenery and wildlife

Good challenge with scoreable holes coupled with a good mixture of layouts.

Would recommend no problem
