Very aggressive members

Nice course: the greens and tee boxes are in good nick. The clubhouse is great for a beer after the round and the pro shop is stocked with everything you’d need.

Massive downside were the members.. super aggressive on numerous occasions. Demanding to know how much my friend and I paid for our round, and laughing about how they pay £2k per year for membership and were better than us. Really confrontational and unwelcoming. No shouts when their stray shots came close to landing on us.. we were also shouted and sworn at by a separate group for no apparent reason! Slow play by very arrogant members.

WOULD AVOID. I won’t be booking on again.

Pleasant course to play

The greens were not in great conditions at the moment - they seemed to have been recovering from punching. Otherwise a pleasant course, relatively flat and wide fairways. Lot of airplanes as close to heathrow

Decent course

Staff were very friendly and helpful on arrival in the pro shop.

The course is pretty enjoyable and condition was fairly good

Very busy but things kept moving.

Some interesting holes but also some not so interesting.

Overall worth a visit and the rate on offer was very good value

Tee to green ok. Greens shocking

I know it is early season but the greens resembled more what a farmer would prepare. Shame because as a course it is an early season joy being wide and a bit forgiving. Staff were really friendly

Lots of OB / greens were recently tined

Reasonably picturesque course but IMHO marred by way too much OB, due to the amount of ‘protected environment’ areas.

Am sure the greens could be decent but they’d been tined a few weeks previously so it wasn’t much fun to putt on a bobbly surface.

Great Layout, Friendly Staff

Great layout, friendly staff only problem was the greens were terrible as it had been heavily spiked and sanded, so you had no chance once on the green. But its that time of the year and I’m sure they will be excellent in the summer months.

Course that stands up to Winter Golf conditions

Lovely course, despite cold conditions the greens defend this course to the death. It’s a lovely layout, fairways in great condition, the pace of the greens really make it challenging but an overall highly enjoyable experience!

Great course for time of year

Played Royal Ascot last week (14thvJan) and the course has held well under the weather, great groundsman ship and green keeping, frost made the greens run fast during the morning but slow in the afternoon which madd you think more.

Rough. And Fairway both well maintained and the geese made an. Extra hazard for fun.

Club house friendly, good selection of ales and wines, great location.

Course in very wet conditions

Played the course just after 4 days of heavy rain. Greens were in excellent condition. All tee boxes were immaculate.

Some tee boxes a little bit wet, though clear puddles so you could adjust.

Fairways very playable. Even though soaking wet, they held the water really well.

The mud was not sticky, so trolly came of the course clean.

Trousers and shoes got splashed, though not complaining.

If you want to play when the weather is against you. I would recommend ascot….

Playable, enjoyable and testing in the worse conditions possible

Great course layout with a good combination of parkland holes

Great course layout with a good combination of parkland holes to make it quite enjoyable as well as challenging. Greens were perfect, fairways quite good despite the dry summer conditions and a number of well placed bankers. Just beware of the high rough on the edges and try to avoid it at all cost. Overall a good game of golf worth every penny. Great club house too.

Awful condition

I thought £23 for the round was good value before I arrived.

Unfortunately it turned out to be very overpriced. The course was in terrible condition. The fairways were the worst I’ve ever seen. The greens were poor. The overall condition was very bad.

I would not play the course again even for a lot less money.

Shame.

I played this course on 10 July and found the experience very disenchanting.

Having to play off the white tees, playing off 21, made the longer , 400yd+ par 4s intimidating and the third had a longer carry off the white tee to the fairway than I could drive. So I laid up to the ladies tee and so lost advantage to others with longer drives on top of about six bunkers strewn across the fairway. The club really needs to decide if it is a golf club or a wildlife reserve with so many areas, mostly of nettles, adding to the challenge of the course. The rough was unnecessarily jungle-like and didn't need to be as going in these areas was punishment enough. There is scant information on each hole on the website, no graphic hole guides to help plan your game, so ultimately I dispute that Royal Ascot is 'visitor friendly.' I won't return as there are hundreds of much better courses to play at.
