Painswick Golf Club

Booked a three ball at 8:20 tee time , couple of members were already out on course. One of our group was late arriving but pro shop was happy for us to wait for home to arrive.

Course is fantastic with 360 degree stunning views once up on the Painswick Hill trig point. It is a course with plenty of character and interesting features on every hole

Definitely worth a visit, course is short but full of links style challenges. Great views nearly all the way round. Kept in great condition all year round considering its location and public roads / footpaths.

Most relaxed and welcoming club in Gloucestershire, staff are always friendly.

Exceptional value for money all year.

Keeping an eye on walkers before each tee shot is a must and can be frustrating but adds to the character.

One of my favourite places to play locally. Would recommend!

Cheers !

An exceptionally enjoyable and challenging course. Not that long but tight and tricky. Pleasant clubhouse serving food. Fantastic value for money overall.

Very interesting course to play with great views. Shame the general public aren’t a little more aware of golfers!!

V difficult and different course. Lots of climbing. Slight downside is the public rights of way which sometimes slows play

Early game and even with rain and wind the course is exceptionally well maintained

Stunning views after the fog had cleared

Great facilities

Pro shop employee was very welcoming, gave good course tips and asked for feedback on course after. Course was in great condition, greens rolled well and come challenging holes through the course. Looking to go back to play again asap

Decent little course with some stunning views will be back to play again

What a great place

Yes it’s quirky and being on a hill in the middle of the driest period I can remember a bit dry in places but what an amazing course.

Found it friendly from the second I arrived, it was quiet and I was early so the guy in the shop let me go as soon as I was ready.

On the first tee box a couple of members offered for me to play through ad I was on my own but I explained I had never played here before and was in no rush was happy to follow them to see where to go.

They would stop sometimes to check on me or chat, they even went out there was to stand on blind spots and point the way sometimes which was very helpful.

Felt like I was playing a links course on top of the world, found the course an absolute gem, will be back I’m sure.

I’m recently getting back into golf so all the bad stuff was down to me and my game and not the course. Some greens were a little bumpy due to the dry weather and I always sealed to find myself with a downhill but on the faster greens and an uphill one on the slower furrier greens.

Highlights were making a 2 on the little par 3 over the rampart and having to shoo of a cow so I could tee off on another hole.

Thank you Painswick - you’ve reignited my love of golf. Could definitely see myself being a member here one day when I have more time

Course played really well. Greens not so good but expect that in hot weather we've had

Too rough terrain, paths very rocky, greens bad condition. Been played there few years ago had hoped more improvements but no change.

Played Painswick several times, the course is in good condition, especially in this drought. Green are at 80% so all perfectly playable

Great club house and a nice all round experience

Seriously this has to be the worst golf course I have ever played. Nobody in the pathetic excuse of a clubhouse, course is in horrific condition, an absolute shambles of navigation and people walking everywhere, you are in danger of being hit by a golf ball on almost every single hole. Do yourself a favour and don't waste your time or money coming to this course.

Very quirky course, quite physically demanding, especially if you think you can use a trolley - I recommend taking your shorter game clubs in a pencil bag over the shoulder. The signs on the first 9 could have been better, but we liked the cows and the setting is fabulous. Short game is crucial on this course - it is less than 5,000 yards and should be rated far higher for difficulty as technically it is challenging unless you are good at lofting it very high and dropping it on a postage stamp. Definitely one to try if you want a good work out and a course with a nostalgic feel to it.

Very enjoyable round on a challenging course made more difficult by the very hot and dry conditions. Lovely clubhouse with friendly staff. Looking forward to my next visit.

Challenging walk and holes. Lovely greeting, and friends recommendation. Some holes were a real challenge for my beginner partner, and me! Breathtaking views. Lovely food at the clubhouse, and very friendly feel with membership. People knew each other and were interested in each other - groundsman, staff and members.
