Rufford Park Golf & Country Club

This is probably one of my favourite courses. The layout is well thought out and uses the natural contours. The tees and greens were very good however the fairways this time could do with a little work. Overall an excellent course that I will be playing again.

Nice play in nice condition, was pretty busy but half term week so that’s understandable. Greens in nice condition and subtle slopes and breaks. A little bit up and down but not a really tough walk.

Played a number of time but left this time really disappointed! 2.25 to play 9 holes slow play was an understatement!

What we were really disappointed with was the attitude of the lady on reception, really ooir!!! Nonchalant to the point of saying “what do you want me to do about it”

These remarks came after us advising after completing 9 holes and it being that slow, the 2 ball in front skipped the back 9 to play the front 9 again....

Such a great course set in fantastic surroundings. One of the Gems of this area without a doubt

Tough course very challenging

We have played the course 4 times now with no issues, however today we left very disappointed. 2 hours 25min to play the first 9 holes the two ball in front were that frustrated they jumped back on the first hole after 9.

We came off after 9 and spoke to the lady on reception who was most unhelpful I would go so far to say no Nonchalant! What do you want me to do was her response!

The course is in good condition and as previously stated we have never had an issue but this time poor attitude and slow play ruined a day off work, and we only played 9 holes!

Great course. Well bunkered. Rarely a straight putt on the undulating greens

Title says it all, nice course ruined by slow play

Beautiful course, lovely layout and some really nice holes. The 17th is one of the best par 3’s you will play, brilliant. Course gets a little boggy after a lot of rain but for the most part it is fine. Well looked after and a good setup all round.

Had a great round at Rufford Park. Excellent value for money and easy to book. The course is very picturesque, set in parkland. Well spaced out so very little noise from fellow players on other holes. Great variety of holes - over water/parkland/up and down fairways and undulating greens etc. Made the round enjoyable and challenging at the same time. Would recommend without hesitation and will definitely return.

Great course, amazing views and greens always excellent

Excellent day out from start to finish. Beautiful setting, challenging holes. Great fun. All the staff are really friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend.

Played Rufford Park and found the course in good condition.

There are some interesting holes and a nice par3 signature hole that plays on to an island green .

The course is fairly easy going and suitable for all levels of player.

The pace got a little slow towards the end of the round but no worse than other courses.

Had a chat with some of the staff who were really friendly.

Would I recommend Rufford? Yes I would good value for money.

Have a drink and a bite to eat after the round on the terrace with stunning views over the course

I purchased this round for my dads birthday, the tee time I booked was 13:12pm, due to waiting for the group before to tee off we didn't tee off until 13:25pm, unfortunately this was a sign of things to come, the front 9 took 3 and a half hours to complete due to the pace of play, at one point there was 3 groups stood waiting on a tee and 2 groups playing the hole, it was ridiculous, the round was completely unenjoyable due to being constantly stood waiting to play our next shot. We had to leave and walk off at the 16th as we ran out of time and had a booking elsewhere which we would of missed, I've never ever played such a slow round of golf in my life and I feel like it was a complete waste of money especially as we traveled quite a while to play the course, very disappointing.

Course layout excellent, just a bit disappointed about the 17th not playing from proper tee, but other wise no complaints from our party.
