Nice course friendly people

Have played the course several times and it has always been in good condition. Played this time in very cold weather but the course was still in decent condition. Both staff and other players are alway welcoming and helpful.

Love Priors

This course was in pretty decent nick considering the weather. Its was muddy in places, but the bunkers have recently had the sand replaced and made playing out of them almost a joy. The greens were superb and the course held up well. You can tell the club are trying to improve things, a couple of the tees are being replaced and playing of the winter mats was actual good as it gives you stable footing

Disappointing

Had heard good things about Priors Hall, but having visited for the first time today I left disappointed. Whilst the course has a good layout and is probably a good course for the summer I found the lack of info from the pro shop disappointing. The 1st hole was shut(not informed of this on check in) which was a shame as ghis is an attractive hole with an elevated T and the signage between T's was poor. Many t areas were roped off and the winter t's were not obviously placed. The greens were good although, due to being a hilly course, there was quite a bit of course damage due to battery buggy use. I will return but probably not until next summer.

Priors Hall

Really good experience, 0716 tee as a single and a 3 ball at 0708 let me off before them which was really appreciated. Unfortunately no normal Tee boxes were in play but the substitute mats were, in general, very good. The greens were in great condition, and the greenkeepers were out early to make sure that the greens were cut and leaf blowers used to clear the greens and fringes. There was a nice variety of short holes, some challenging blind tee shots, and good bunkering on the approaches to par 4/5 holes that made the round a nice challenge. The approach shot up the hill up to the 18th green is impressive. Overall I would highly recommend this course.

Stay out the bunkers

Love this course, 1st tee is amazing, upto the 18th will almost put you in hospital, but the bunkers are big and placed to truly annoy you, wish to bunkers had better sand or massively sieve out all the stones…… A Great Course really

Mid-week game, course quiet.

Back here just five days after my previous round, this time we had no problems with ignorant players around us.

We got round in just over 3 hours compared to the 4hrs+ previously.

We play off the Yellows, they had mostly been moved forwards to coincide with the Red tees. After this long hot dry weather, the tees were a bit threadbare and maybe to be expected.

Didn't spoil the game at all. We'll play here again.

Great Course - Awful Golfers

Arrived at 2 pm and was told the 2.08 was a solo, so we should have no problem with our 2.16.

Wrong - the 2.08 was a four-ball with absolutely ZERO concepts of golf etiquette.

Firstly they didn't offer to let our two-ball play through.

Secondly, they didn't even tee up until the previous players had cleared the first green, then promptly proceeded to not even hit the ball halfway to the hole...

This continued throughout the entire round; one of the players is a member at Oundle (badges on his GPS-controlled motorised caddy - he can't even hit the ball.

The fairways were fast and true, greens a bit variable.

We came off at 6.15; the clubhouse was locked up. Everyone had gone home. Poor show.

Then again, it is run by the local council.

Enjoyable old faithful

Having played this course over many years, I have to say that the layout is just superb. A course that is a real good test of anyones golf and one of the best courses in Northamptonshire. Now back in the local councils hands, it is being run more efficiently than on the past and care taken throughout. Some improvements have been made and I hope this strategy continues in the future.

The course still has some difficulties as in the past for example, the bunkers are all a little sparse of sand and continues to be the case. The greens on the other hand were superb, quick and maintained well.

Go and pay it a visit sometime, you won’t regret it.

I’ll certainly go back and soon hopefully.

Get & Play Here!

I'd seen this course come up many times, but my usual Thursday partner couldn't make our regular date, so I booked this instead.

It was a gloriously hot day, standing on the first looking down towards the first hole - first impression? Impressive.

This is a great course for the relatively high handicapper, and I had a great time; nobody behind me, so there was no pressure to "get a move on". Most of the time, I saw nobody else.

To top it off, I got a par on the par 5 18th.

Already booked to play again and take my son-in-law with me.
