Great course and clubhouse

Been to rufford many times and have always enjoyed it. Course was in good condition especially as the area has had a lot of rain recently resulting in many courses closed. Will definitely come back.

Great Course but slow play

First time playing this course, we were a 2 ball and it took us 4:15 to play due to slow play in front with 2 four balls and a 3 ball which tarnished an otherwise good game of golf. Some challenging varied holes and the course was in excellent condition.

Great course

Great course in good condition, pace of play was slow but down to one group of visitors that wouldn’t let people past. You can order a bacon butty and a coffee on the 9tee box and pick it up on your way to the tenth 👌🏻👌🏻. 17th is some hole, well worth the visit 🤌🏻

The course even after weeks of rain is still in great condition

The course even after weeks of rain is still in great condition and the greens lightening fast. It’s a great challenge especially the 583yard 5par off the yellows and against the wind the daunting 17th island hole. We really enjoy our day except for the moaning member on the 1st tee complaining there was a four ball in front of his two ball we even split into two two’s and he still went and complained to the club house, these members make me laugh, play a few years and think they own the place…IDIOT! YOUR CLUB NEEDS THE EXTRA INCOME! WELCOME GUESTS WITH OPEN ARMS!

Top notch golf all round

A fantastic venue with a full range, short game and putting practice are that is as well kept as the main greens,

The course is stunning with pleanty of features and unique holes. I would highly recommend a round here, we played after a solid day of rain the day before and the course had drained excellently too.

One of the best in the area.

Really like this course, good mix of holes and although challenging it’s fair, greens always good, fairways and tee boxes mostly good. Great signature hole the 17th.

Can be busy and rounds can take a while but the club recognises this and tries to remind members/ players to speed up!

Good clubhouse too.

Enjoyable Round

Course was in good condition for the time of year and considering the recent bad weather played well.

Greens was smooth and surprisingly quick for March

Pace of play was steady but being a 2 ball on a Sunday was expected. Overall Enjoyable Round and will be back
