Excellent as always!

One of my favourite courses in the area! Tee boxes, fairways and greens are all in excellent condition. Only spotted 2-3 rougher patches on the greens. For the price, this is an excellent course and great value for money.

Best Value possible and a friendly welcome

Don’t miss Rufford Park if you are able to play in this area. It’s quite simply the best golf value around

The staff give you an incredibly friendly welcome (especially the wonderful Meg) and it is matched by the course difficulty, condition and beauty

Don’t expect to play to your handicap here, but you will enjoy your golf and the challenge of the variation in the journey around course, including the many elevated greens. The 17th signature hole is fantastic!! I was so very pleased to walk off with a par

Perfect weather
Walked

Had a great day. The only criticism of the whole day was the price of the beer! I realise times have been hard recently, but£4.10 for Tetley smooth takes some explaining. why not have the real ale pump working. I'd pay £4.10 for that

Wet weather
Walked

Open fairways, good condition, 1 temp green only.

Considering other courses had closed this remained open and drained well for early February in significant rain.

The course does periodically uses temporary greens. This is a frustrating necessity - maintaining good green conditions all year round.

The course is not too hilly and is a pleasure to walk around. The trees are not overly punishing and for a mid handicapper. There are lots of opportunities to hit driver (even if a little wayward) and a good score can be obtained in most conditions.
