Owston
Played this course, week after the major storms, course was very dry to say we hade so much rain.
For the end of February I thought overall the course was in good condition.
In fact will visit again in the summer.
Winter Gem
Full tees full greens and not a patch of water insight,Owston Hall is becoming the best draining winter course around.
Bad reviews not deserved, fantastic condition
Best course conditions I’ve played this winter (and I’ve played a lot of courses) all greens open. Not the most challenging or exciting course but still a fantastic round
Reviews dont do it justice.
Played on the 11/12/21 after looking at some of the reviews I was a bit sceptical, but as soon as i arrived at the course it was beautiful. For the time of the year the greens where in very good condition. The fairways were well cut and the rough wasnt too bad to play out off. Finding the 11th tee took me a while but that's probably just me being daft. The only criticism i have is that there was no yardage on the tee boxs other than that its superb.
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and will be back very soon.
Looking at previous reviews they’ve clearly listened as it bears no resemblance to some of the negative ones from earlier in the year. Course in great condition with true fast greens. An easy course with wide well cut fairways and not many hazards so will be a great course for beginners. Great value for £20 on a weekend.
Great Condition For Time Of Year
I have played this course multiple times over the years, before the pandemic it was looking tired and slightly unkept and not somewhere you would necessarily recommend, however, i played yesterday and the course was faultless! Fairways, rough and greens in excellent condition, and for the time of year (21st November) was even more impressive, the greens were playing as if it was mid summer, firm, fast and true, thoroughly enjoyed the round and will definetely be back in 2022!
played it 20 years ago
really friendly staff, I paid fill price for 2 jnrs so he reimbursed me in balls, he didn't have too. course is well layed out, it played nice, responsive greens. really enjoyed it
Decent
Nice course layout, nice varied holes.
Can’t really go wrong for £20 on a weekend.
Some nice holes with water hazards to keep you thinking.
Not sure
Not a bad course for the money but wouldn’t pay any more than £20.
Greens are poor and uneven, ball doesn’t roll properly. Course layout is ok, fairly nice holes but all quite similar bar a couple.
Steady, flat and not too challenging though so good for a easy days golf.
Challenging but forgiving (mostly)
Fairways 8
Tee boxes 7
Greens 3
Beautiful, quiet and varied course unfortunately let down by bobbly and inconsistent greens. The fairways and 1st cut were obviously longer winter cut but actually played pretty well.
Staff were average at best but will be returning as it's close to home and reasonable through hot deals, however I wouldn't pay full price for a round until the greens get some tlc.
Nice knock
Played here following a heavy downpour over the few days before. Course held up well with the exception of a couple of greens not getting much light and therefore a bit softer. Will go back.
Few ingrediants missing from being a top course
First time playing this course today. Staff friendly and helpful and the lay out of the actual track is good, but the condition of the greens and hazards were very poor!! Throw into the mix that there is no signage around the course or even just simple hole numbers on the tee boxes made things harder to navigate yourself round. If you have a garmin watch/device dont bother loading satellites it doesn’t pick up one hole. Real shame as there is so much potential with this course stunning grounds and great Hotel. Price point needs a look at, ive played £10-£15 courses in better nick
Glorious day
Had an amazing visit for the 1st time to this beautiful course. Loved the variety from hole to hole, I.e. tight fairway but large green followed by a long forgiving fairway followed by tricky green. The overall play was brilliant. Tees were well maintained and the fairways were excellent. The rough, as I unfortunately found a few times was nicely playable on most occasions. The only downside would be the state of the greens. Had been recently aerated which made them bumpy and inconsistent on speed from green to green.
Overall an awesome sunny day. Will definitely return.
Don't bother
2 or 3 of the holes were like bomb alley majority of the people we saw I don't believe had a handicap and not very much etiquette. The green were atrocious foll of dry mud were work had been carried out but had not cleared the mess. Majority of people that were playing I presume were staying at the hotel for the weekend as they were large groups teeing off at the same time. Pace of play was very slow 4.5 hrs to complete a course that is not that long. Will not be playing again unless I hear of vast improvements. Not worth £20 a round better value at other courses not that far away.
Lovely course, shocking greens
Played this weekend and the course was in good condition, but the greens were horrible - they'd been socred or aired recently but just had sand / soil dumped on them - lumps and heaps of the mixture everywhere over the greens.
Poor greens
Disappointed with the greens being well aware green maintenance has to be done we were disappointed that all the greens had been sanded seeded airated and cut with no collection of clippings . Very poor standard for the price paid in fact we would have played elsewhere had we known about this .
