Decent for time of year

Course was in good condition considering the time of year, must say when it’s a windy day it’s definitely a course best avoided!

All In all an enjoyable morning, tees where quiet and all winter mats where superb.

Will be returning come summer time definitely!

A great little course

What a great little course this is. Every hole presents a different challenge and requires some thought as to how to play it best. It really needs to be played a few times to get best results. Greens are adaquate but need some work. Best to play early in the morning to avoid walkers who have rights of way all over the course.

Lovely course -lots of walkers

Played on New Years Day. Really enjoyable course with lots of slightly quirky but fun holes. Some blind shots but nothing that seemed unfair. The only issue was the number of walkers, dogs, bike riders, horses, cows and kite flyers. Understandable as it was a sunny NYD morning but it did slow down the round. But who’s in a hurry to play golf anyway. Will play again.

The Best!

Pick the right time (early doors in the summer or afternoons) and you could be the only one on the course, apart from the walkers and joggers. This course is much more interesting than other local flat courses. Each hole is a challenge but there are plenty of birdie opportunities A stunning course with stunning scenery and views which is great value. Why go anywhere else?

Short but tricky course

Don’t be fooled by the short course. It’s tricky with lots of blind shots, some of which are just a lottery if you haven’t played the course before. A couple of very long carries on par 4s which are difficult for high handicap golfers.

Course is a little rough around the edges but certainly playable. Watch out for the walkers, who seemed unaware of any danger from flying golf balls.

Friendly welcome and nice club house.

Extremely interesting and challenging

The blind holes and punishing dips and quarries don’t leave much room for error on an unfamiliar course. Fascinating variety of holes that is really golf together with a ramble on the Cotswolds. Definitely for the physically fit.

Tricky with stunning views

Little hidden gem of a course. Beautiful setting and lots of variety over the course. Be prepared for some hill climbing however you won’t be disappointed when you see the stunning 360 degree views at the top of Painswick Beacon.

Painswick Course

Not every course new to be long to be a challenge .

This little one offert a test to beginner and experts.

It has some blind shots, blind green location and mixture of flat and hill.

One of the holes has a view 360 dgrees of the County down on your feet.

I will be back because the member made me feel welcome.
