Pike Hills Golf Club

The first 6 holes are just up and down after that there is a bit of feature in the holes. The greens were ropey spongey and bumpy and not in great condition. There was even weeds showing through. The fairways are in poor condition and very patchy not really like a fairway. Drainage ditches have collapsed. The Galway house was closed and inaccessible and the drinking water fountains were inoperable. No cooked food available in the clubhouse at 1930 hrs. That said it was playable and nicely tree lined. Good for a practice knockabout but not for a quality day out

Got stuck behind a slow group but course was in good condition

Our only criticism was a really small point, we didn't think the greens had been cut that morning. They ran very true but were slower than expected. Other than that point every aspect of the course was excellent.

Firstly, the staff could not be more pleasant. From green keepers to the chairman who greeted me on arrival.

Secondly, the course layout and ease on aging joints and bones was excellent.

Thirdly, greens in excellent condition and quicker than a vaseline covered squirrel.

Fourth, being stuck behind extremely slow players x7 elderly ladies who had zero interest in waving me through made it a phenomenally slow game. It was the only downside to the course but it won’t stop me going back.

Course was in great condition, greens was in excel at condition.

Tee boxes and fair ways all good and nicely laid out.

Lay out of the course easy to follow and a great walk.

Very very slow play. We went out as a 2 ball with a 3 ball of members in front by the second hole we was waiting g long periods. Some holes we was on the tee box before they’d even teed off. No offer to go through even though the 2 ball in front was a hole and half in front. This found us waiting every hole every second shot.

Nice day out which wasn’t spoilt but if you can’t keep up with pace of play you should let others pass. It took us 4 hours 50 minutes as a 2 ball to get round. I’d like to say cause we was looking for balls however we both shot under 80.

Great course, speak with members!

A low price at a club where pre-visit research promised a lot? The reason became clear as we found out only 14/15 holes were open as there are obvious drainage issues in wet times of the year. All holes were from temporary tees, many cutting a lot of yards off holes. However, we enjoyed a relaxed swing of the arms. Greens were good for the time of the year and facilities and welcome in the clubhouse excellent. Proper judgement can only be given when the course is fully open and we WILL revisit then as it looks promising

Interesting course with a few nice undulating holes.

Perfect course although we had to play of mats when hitting the ball which I was a bit confused about.

Can't wait to come back and play the course in the summer. Even though we have had rain consistently for days, the greens were remarkable as was the majority of the course. The winter layout is somewhat confusing but I opted for yhe follow those in front method which worked well for me. My only one negative other rhan the weather, first timers need to be made aware of the code to get out or else they just sit there, cold and muddy looking all confused (maybe they was just me lol)

Very friendly and excellent value for money. Two holes were shut due to worm problems. Check the club website as it's not advertised on nowgolf. All holes played off winter tee boxes which drastically shortened many holes. The greens were in excellent condition and very challenging. Not a flat putt anywhere! Will play again in the summer when dry.

The course was very wet in parts (probably about four holes out 18) considering low rainfall over the weekend and heavy morning dew. If you hit fat ish wedge shots you would end up plastered in mud. The 10th fairway (worm mounds) was very muddy down the left side) However, I think it would be a cracking course in the summer. The course was well layed out and gave a good variety of different holes. Everyone would enjoy this course. The only slight hesitation is the last three holes that cross over tee/ fairways . The greens were absolutely first class. They ran true with no bobbles and made you think of the line. Some very challenging hole positions, made me three putt

twice (10 handicapper)

Love all aspects of the course and club. Another great afternoon golf

Course good layout but just last 3 holes were crossing one another’s play
