Very poor.

Fairways could have been cut better. Greens aerated but still poor. Most bunkers GUR in a very poor state.

Will not return until vast improvement

Do not waste your money!

Greens were shocking there was no chance of hitting a putt in a straight line. All bunkers overgrown and GUR. Absolute waste of money my recommendation would be to spend the extra 10-20 pounds and go somewhere else or even the driving range would be a better experience.

Very bobbly greens

The greens are just way to bobbly the ball had many unpredictable turns and bounces due to this, some parts it looked like it was torn apart! Group of kids hit up behind us 4 times yelling fore once almost hitting myself and dad. Extremely slow, group in front very stubborn and wouldn’t let us play through!

Great layout, poor maintenance

Potential to be a great track but the greens were really poor. Among some of the worst greens I’ve seen this year.

Worst Greens I've ever played on

Have played this course multiple times and have always loved it and thought great value for money. However played it yesterday and the greens look like they've all been the victim of a mortor strike. Huge chunks blown out of them, hardly any grass, more sand than anything else.

I'm assuming paultons must be having some significant issues leading to this drop in standards.

I wouldn't have minded if I had been warned and the green fee adjusted accordingly but no mention of the sorry state of the course when booking.

I just count myself lucky I'm not a member. Unless you're happy playing 40ft gimmes I would avoid this place until they sort themselves out.

Terribly maintained.

In the past this course has been excellent. The standard of green keeping is currently terrible. What a shame.

First Time Playing

Paultons Park Golf Course

This was the 1st time myself and 2 friends had played here.

Clubhouse very good

Driving range really expensive £8.50 for 50 balls !!!!

Layout of course good a mixture of links and woodland

OK the bad things -

Every single bunker was ground under repair apparently speaking to members been like that for 2 years totally unacceptable 😤

Lastly every green was ruined by a disease and they had tried to repair.

It was liking putting on the moon covered in sand

Complete waste of money and will never return

Really great course

I always enjoy playing this course when I’m in the area but I do wish courses would let you know when they dress the greens before you commit.

Saturday golf

Bit disappointed with the greens they were in poor health due a disease and the bunkers were also in a bad state mostly all unplayable. All tees open apart from the 12th and fairways in good condition.

Looks a little tired

Lovely course, played it many times over last 10 years but did seem to be in need of a little tlc - bunkers prime problem, hard compacted dirty sand, greens weren’t great but accepted that as they’d been recently treated and was warned about that before going out.

Met a few green staff bombing around but again no urgency to do anything once they’d parked up, phones seemed priority over any park maintenance

Shame as I like the course but wouldn’t hurry back to play again unfortunately

Total waste of money

The Guy in the pro shop was lovely !!!

The Marshall was rude

The buggy had a mind of its own

Robot mowers were a pain in the butt.

And the greens were probably the worst I've ever seen in 35years of me playing golf. All in all I spent £80 to get attitude from some jumped up no Mark and putt on a beach.

The worst golf experience I've ever had I wish I never bothered

First Time Playing

Very Disappointing

I recently played a round at this golf course, and to say it was a disappointing experience would be an understatement. Despite several dry days leading up to my visit, the course was still embarrassingly waterlogged in multiple areas, particularly along the paths connecting holes. The mud was unavoidable, and there was no apparent effort from the staff to address it, no gravel, no drainage improvements, nothing. It felt like they’d simply given up on keeping it playable.

The greens were in an even sorrier state. They were patchy and poorly maintained, with one green sporting a massive hole or divot, I couldn’t tell if it was from an animal or another player’s carelessness. Either way, it was a glaring sign of neglect. Speaking of neglect, we scoured the course for a ball cleaner and only found one, which was completely dry and useless. It’s baffling how a course can skimp on such basic amenities.

Litter was another eyesore. Litter was scattered around various holes, making it clear that upkeep isn’t a priority here. On top of that, there were so many mole hills dotted across the course, completely unattended to, that it felt like playing on a forest course rather than a proper golf layout. The course seems to rely heavily on robot lawnmowers buzzing around, but that’s no substitute for human attention. Golf courses need regular, hands-on maintenance, and this one is severely lacking in that department. This is a huge shame because we’re local and were genuinely excited about the prospect of signing up as members. With proper care, this place could have been our go-to spot, but as it stands, I won’t be rushing back.
