First Time Playing

First time playing here.

First impressions were great. A very warm welcome in the pro shop with a little guidance on the course layout.

Was very quiet with little to no pressure from behind or catching anyone in front. I've played golf for a year and had this gem 5 minutes from my house. I feel like I've robbed myself over the summer.

No winter greens but winter tee box's which is understandable. The greens were in IMMACULATE condition.

Pace of play was good, got let through by 2 gentlemen (only for me to hit a 50 yard chip to 2 feet). Pace of play was great.

Will definitely be back again. Especially for £12.99!!!!

Awful layout, terrible setting.

This is the ugliest golf course I have ever played in over 30 years, the setting is terrible, the dirt tracks that you have to follow to get around are horrendous, you even have to go through graffiti coverd tunnels to get to tea boxes, the place is awful

Nice course, even better staff!

Round couldn't have started better than simply checking in and being met with the friendliest staff member who showed us the layout of the course with some recommendations. First time playing the course and he put us at ease even before teeing off.

Course conditions were okay. Had a bit of rain recently, so it was a bit muddy in places, but the greens were in excellent condition, as were the tee boxes. Fairway grass length was perhaps a touch long, but due to the recent rain, it was expected.

I personally shot a personal best of 84, but my playing partner's didn't fair as good, losing a few balls along the way. All being said, I'd definitely play here again.

Good course spoiled by very bad tee etiquette

We were looking forward to playing Ravensworth and the experience should have been good as the course is currently in good condition and the club house / general facilities are very good. However, the visit was spoiled for us and quite a few others by an unfathomable decision by the club to allow two members four ball parties to tee off very late which resulted in booked parties tee times being severely delayed on the first. Our party and two other parties were stood waiting on almost every hole - to say that frustration was starting to creep in is an understatement! Some players had to walk off at the half way mark due to commitments outside of the world of golf - those of us that soldiered on and completed got finished circa 1.5 hours late. Sadly due to the negative experience we wont be booking Ravensworth again any time soon which is a shame.

A great round of Golf

The course was in very good condition with the greens much faster than our home course in Norfolk. We found checking in easy and we were offered some sound advice regarding the course. Signage was helpful around the course. We both enjoyed our round and would definitely return

Ravensworth Golf

Another enjoyable experience, Long Par 4’s if you’re only moderate, like my fellow players !

The Par of 69 seems unbelievable, some of them Par 4’s impossible to reach in 2 for the average golfer.

Greens in immaculate condition.

I think l need to improve a bit, to get competitive at Ravensworth GC, but at 62, that seems quite ambitious !
