Friday is always dead apparently, short course which front 9 feels slightly crammed in but back 9 is superb. You see the overall yardage and think you’ll rip the course up but you have to plot your way round. Really enjoyed it, all the greens are elevated which makes them tough as if you land on the challenge is to stay on. Course was in great condition and for £20 it was superb value, one 3 ball who I caught up in 4 holes but let me straight through as I was playing solo.

Played this course for the first time today . Very surprised and well maintained , the first 9 was inside the racecourse each hole has it challenges especially the holes involving water . Back 9 is good aswell with only one temp green used. Well worth the money, don’t be deceived by the first 9 being inside a racecourse . Definitely will be going again .

Lovely course, shame it was so wet, should have been closed really.

I would recommend the course, but if it's wet avoid it.

Having read the reviews mostly over 2 years ago once known has a micky mouse golf club compared to other clubs in the area well i can tell you now that mouse has grown up and turned into a lion this course is easy to play but hard to beat , with new groundstaff, a great committee who wants the best for there golf club, golf clubhouse refurbishment a great pro , a mens ladies and senior sections and the cheapest 7 day membership around this golf course is a hidden gem and golf membership is growing fast not a course you just hit the all has far as you can you've have to think ,so much so you won't beat it as you stand on the 1st tee a 200 yard par 3 you can hear a voices say ing. WELCOME to the LIONS DEN recommend highly a total difference experience. Good luck

Fantastic course at Southwell racecourse, greens and fairways in a great condition considering the lack of rain recently, will definitely be back!

I played at Southwell golf course for the first time and I think it’s a brilliant course for the price. I paid £17.99 for 18 holes which I think is excellent value for the money. The course didn’t have a driving range but did have some practice nets near the 1st Tee. The man in the Golf shop was very friendly and welcoming which was nice to see and they have an excellent selection of golf equipment and also so very well priced second hand clubs as I brought myself a second hand 60 degree Nike wedge for £30. I will be definitely be returning to this course and I would recommend to anyone.

Front 9 is awful, back 9 in the woods is better but over all the course isn’t maintained. Bunker surrounds are all overgrown, tee boxes have no grass and not even.

For someone who hasn’t played there for 15 yrs, I had to ask where the 1st tee was and the 10th. No signage and that theme continues through out.

Won’t be back.

Great course. Fairways in great condition. Greens need a bot of tlc. But overall great 18 holes. Staff very polite and friendly. Drinks in bar are great price compared to other golf clubs. Definitely making another trip to the course soon.

A warm welcome was the first good sign at the pro shop then we encountered the front 9 which is flat but varied with several water hazards to negotiate. The back 9 is quite different, with more trees along with some water hazards, both have some interesting greens.

Overall a very well kept course, we will be back

Played Wednesday 4th June.

Arrived the night before the staff couldn’t have been more helpful from the time we arrived until the minute we left.

Course was in great condition apart from a few greens which had been affected by the really dry weather.

The front 9 are based in the centre of the racecourse with quite a bit of water and some tricky out of bounds on the first 3 holes.

Back 9 appears much more mature with accuracy on the drives a must.

Altogether a great experience and planning another visit later in the year.

Thanks to all the team for making it a great experience.

Front nine is inside the racetrack and is very open. Second nine it tree linked parkland style.

Greens are very small and the condition was quite bad - very patchy

Weather was perfect

I was surprised there were few players on the course

but that was to our advantage. Only criticism was the majority of the greens were not in good condition, which made it more challenging. I enjoyed the back 9 more than the front.

Staff are very friendly and I will play there again

Fantastic course with differing 9 holes but a real challenge,1st 9 holes in the open but lots of hidden dangers(water,sand and race course) 2nd 9 holes in the woods even more so challenging as gotta keep in play but course in excellent condition and always a pleasure to play lovely tough course(especially in the wind)

Will be back again very soon

Thank you Southwell

We played this course last year in the summer and the course was in much better shape tbh. Greens are poor after holing and sanding and scabby. Some bunkers are awful, others have been renewed. Disappointing…

Excellent course, nice and flat easy to walk, club house great, well worth a visit. 👍
