Woolfox Golf & Country Club

Clearly quite a young course which needs to grow out, but it will come good. A great starter course or for those who are not worried about hitting a driver every hole.

Sadly felt the greens could do with improving but pretty sure they had started this work just before we were there.

Shame to see a course not well loved. Bunkers have stones, greens are bobbly and half hearted attempts to sand, shoes priories lie elsewhere despite the excessive green fee charged. Such a shame when the layout is enticing with good scoring opportunities, but experience ruined by severe lack of maintenance team presence, teed off early and nobody to be seen working on the course on a Sunday….

Different lay now a few more par 3 on the the front 9

Only reason for not a 5 star course condition was as it was having maintenance on the greens so in a weeks time it’ll be perfect

Great course. No winter greens. Course was frozen solid tho so just a case of wrong day for us. Will definitely come back once the weather thaws

Only 9 holes open. Around 13 players waiting to tee off on the first. Waited 40 minutes after our tee time before we just left due to time and daylight hours. No mention of the state of play when booking in. Very disappointed paying and not playing.

Disappointed that I was not told/informed when booking online that the greens had been spiked/ fertilised.

Maybe offer half price green fees when this type of maintenance is being carried out.

No putting green either ( which wouldn't have made any difference due to maintenance )

Driving range bays closed due to torn mats.

First impressions. Really unwelcoming staff. We had left a message to ask for a buggy on a previous day but no one called us back and they didn’t have any when we got there. Young staff with little passion and interest to even offer an explanation. Set in a clubhouse that has the look and feel of a community centre function room with no windows or views of the lovely fountains that they have installed on the course. Course is ok. Fairways ok with good features. However greens very poor - scarified and hardened like a grid of dips and holes a leaving a rough and irregular flowing surface on most greens. Average all round but could be so much better - the unkempt nature of building materials and barriers on show by the entrance rather than being tidied away, just makes it feels like no-one cares.

I always enjoy playing the Woolfox. The condition of the course is good, the greens are great. My only criticism is signage, it is very easy to go in the wrong direction, especially the second tee. Overall I enjoy playing this course. The staff are helpful and friendly.

Haven't played since early March and got a shock to see the 2 new opening holes.

The par 3 1st works brilliantly, the second less so and will be a real problem when thr trees grow.

That aside the course is remains in very good nick, interesting holes and landscaping is kicking in.

But for the love of God get some better signage and please update Garmain so I can use my watch!!!

I had played on this cousre before it was altered although the old course hadn’t any water at all I think in general it was better before

Also the lack of signage pointing out the next tee was a problem

One particular hole was also not obvious ad to which green you should be aiming for

Having played it once I would no which way to go but for new visitors this could be a problem

Played this round as hoping to play here with friends for monthly meet-up Course nice, well looked after fairways, rough not too bad at all. Tee’s are a bit so so, need some TLC?

Lots bunkers and some could do with a clean up as not enough sand and lots small stones in them

But nice welcome ( small golf shop) small coffee bar but bigger facilities in main building for food and drink

After 5 holes of being continuously held up, observing the course full of people unaware of the rules when it comes to playing from other fairways, I left.

While the facilities have been refurbished to a high standard, the lack of attention to the course and play occurring on the course at such a peak time spoke volumes.

An interesting par 3 over a lake is a great introduction this course. Greens are large and the fairways are wide and forgiving.

I understand that the course has been altered and my Garmin watch doesn’t seem to have updated the alteration which made judging shots I to the green difficult and as no course plan is provided on the score card spotting hidden bunkers surrounding the green was impossible at times.

All in all we enjoyed the round and would play the course again.

The only thing I really enjoyed about this course was the first hole, and being able to catch up with my mate! Other than that it was a let down. No staff around at a 6:12pm tee time, very confusing for first timers here as a result. Probably don’t need to pay to be honest, just turn up and play. Nobody would know. Course poorly signposted and if you play just 9 holes, you have a loooong walk back so be prepared! Sprinklers came on at the greens as we were playing so that was annoying too. You’d think they’d set timers better. For a health/lifestyle club with such great facilities and a massive monthly fee - this course was poor.

06.30 start ,course in excellent condition, greens recently cut bunkers dressed . Staff extremely friendly, well worthwhile visiting

With the new holes over the water, made the course more interesting, good layout

The course is in great condition, superb greens. The new layout has shortened the course, but does not take anything away from the enjoyment of playing it. The clubhouse is small, with very little golf equipment for sale. There is a resturant next to the gym, which is really nice, with both indoor and outdoor space. However, it feels that it is designed to cater for younger gym users than golfers, or golf societies. But I find it difficult to say anything negative, as I always enjoy playing at the Woolfox.
