we played during a very prolonged dry spell. the fairways were brown and so the balls kept rolling. it made our golf look very good with some very long tee shots. The greens were in good conditon. we went to the bar after golf which was very welcome.

Course ok

The course was ok, fairways lacking grass and quite straw like but typical for this time of the year. Unfortunately, far too many dog walkers but expected being a council course. Twilight in hindsight probably not the best time to play. I will play there again in winter when fairways are in better condition.

Queens Park.

Although the course layout is impressive there are a lot of dry areas therefore having to play or very tight lies. Lots of sound of traffic as you go round the course also.

BEWARE of the dog walkers/public

First time playing the course and only managed to play 9 out of the 18 holes (1-5, 12, 15-18)

To start im a seasoned golf and played many courses but somehow I managed to go from the green at hole 5 to the 12. I was following the 2ball in-front of me so they must have done exactly the same (i should have checked the tee off plaque) .

Once I realised mistake and walk back down the 12th to were the 6th is, there was a members tournament playing on the 5th green which refused to allow me to tee the 6th in front even after explaining the mistake. Once i finished the 12th i somehow found myself on the 15th tee box,

The course is average at best with the fairways very patchy and rock hard dirt patches littered everywhere, greens also quite sandy.

Biggest problem with this course is the constant presence of dog walkers EVERYWHERE, i only managed to play 9holes and there was at least 1 on each hole. One hole there was also a lady pushing a baby buggy down the middle of the fairway. (Not just across the fairway one side to the other)

The course has some nice slopes which makes a change from a constant flat course, but i feel it is very over priced and would not play again ever due to so many negatives with this course

Hills

A very hilly golf course, with fairways defined by trees rather than rough on most holes. Good challenge for a high handicapper, however could be quite easy if you are better at the game.

Disrespectful dog walkers

It’s not uncommon to meet dog walkers on golf courses but these lot are a different breed. They think they own the place and have no time or respect for the golfers. I won’t ever return here. It’s just a waste of time. Had one group of walkers blatantly pick up my ball and walk of with it.

Tee off 10 mins late behind a large group. Round took over 5 hours, with lots of waiting between each hole! Perhaps was overbooked, although hopefully this was a one off as previous rounds played here have not been so slow.

Fantastic layout

Fantastic layout If this course was private ownership and money spent it would be one of the best courses in the south west. Bad points lots of dog walkers not just waking across the fairway but on the fairways

Shame About The Dog Walkers!!

Should really enjoy this course. A real variety of holes and it's easy to see why - back in the day - it was a professional tour venue. Course was in reasonable condition. But........and this is the BIG 'but' the number of dog walkers, general walkers, sunbathers, etc, etc that have access to the course make it not much fun. Some have the common sense to check for golfers but others are completely oblivious.......walking down the middle of fairways.....across the greens.....shocking really!

Disappointed

To think this was apparently once a championship course it is a far cry from this. Was not at all happy with course condition. Typical of a public pay and play. Very disappointed and would not recommend. Sad to say. I don't like leaving negativity however do not think this is value for money.
