Unplayable should have been closed

The course should be closed

I get it, it’s been raining a lot this winter, but what was most frustrating is that they still charge full price to play in a bog!!

I can’t imagine the damage that is being done to the course right now

Plus 4 hours 40 minutes for a two ball is far too slow! No course marshal either

Very disappointing. The course was unplayable

Should have been shut

I get that’s it’s been a very wet winter. But honestly I’d rather the course was honest and said “this course is too wet, it’s closed here is your money back”

At the very least should have been a discounted rate. Charging full rate on a course that was all but unplayable is disgusting

And I can’t imagine the damage that is being done to the course

To top off a bad experience, teed off at 8:50 an it took 4 hours and 40minutes for a two ball. Had to wait 10-15 minutes for every shot. No marshal to speed things up either.

This HAS to be closed.

I cannot believe this course is open, let alone allowing trolleys, buggies etc. We were told it's "playing well" on arrival and after just 5 holes we decided enough was enough. No temporary greens, but for any normal golf club this wouldn't be the case with standing water. It's actually disrespectful to the course itself to allow it to be open in this terrible state. £20 seemed like a steal in this day and age, but unfortunately I would have rather spent my money elsewhere. We were hopeful after reading social media posts about the course conditions, and we actually didn't expect much after the recent weather, but this is nothing short of a cow field at the moment. If GolfNow did refunds I would expect one here without a shadow of a doubt. If you are a decent golfer and not just a hacker, stay well away.

Great course.

I mean for value and for the fact it was January 4th and everything was frozen. The course was holding up very well. Would recommend this course to any level of golfer.

Shame really could have been better

Greens had a good pace for the time of year and the course wasn’t in bad condition although none of the bunkers had been raked for days the sand was compacted like a path with footprints and divots from previous players, pace of play was slow until a group of members decided to jump in front of other paying guests causing the play to slow down even further decided to call it quits after 10 hole as it was taking too long and daylight was fading

A foggy new years eve!

Given the time of year, the cource is in pretty good condition. All 18 greens were open with only 1 hole (10th) reduced to a par 3.

Despite being extremely foggy the pace of play was good.

If there is one gripe, I would say the club house is looking a little tired & needs a bit of TLC. (one of the toilet doors is missing....) but the staff are very welcoming & friendly.

Definitely worth a visit.

Very slow play no etiquette

Been a regular course for me over the past 10 years but recent few years this course has gone down hill due to being available on golf now and the way it’s run, flooding the course with as many players as possible with buggy’s on at this time of year churning the fairways up people doing donuts all over show even saw 6 people with buggy’s on one hole, players not letting other players cos there slow play, people skipping holes to try in front of slow play causing more slow play. 3rd time of playing the course we’ve had to walk off after 11 holes taking nearly 4 hours. Feel sorry the members

Quality Golf Course

A quality golf course for the price. Well laid out with a mixture of difficulty in holes for both new and experienced players. Greens were a little sandy at time of play but otherwise no complaints.

Good course for high and mid handicap player

Enjoyed course generally albeit tees were poor also green surrounds and many bunkers out of play, Current drought situation past and present not helping. Greens very fast and not holding. Cost competitive reflecting general quality of course compared to other local courses. Additional watering would help

Very friendly and attentive staff

Really enjoyable round

This course is very forgiving for those who have a high handicap, with wide well cut fairways. Most greens have been well looked after but the tees really need some work, a good watering would help. Overall you will have a great time if you decide to play at Paultons.

The course is ok

The course has a good layout, but unfortunately it was very slow play and the greens are well below standard quality.
