Southwell Golf Club

Had a 3 ball yesterday, great weather - met up with some old golf mates. I travelled 2 hours, others 1.5 hours. Started on time, first time on the course, really enjoyed it. Tee'd off at 11.10, finished before 16.00. Looking forward to a well earned beer and comfort break, only to find the clubhouse access and bar closed! That was a surprise.
We left and went our seperate ways. Sad end to a good day.

Boring font 9, inside the racetrack, one interesting hole, the 8th island hole. Back nine better but nothing special.

Course has moved to mats off all tees but they are decent and easy to get a tee in.

Tail of 2 different 9s as they are completely different. Overall course is in decent condition for this time of year.

Only confusing thing is where to go from 15th green to 16th tee...you have to walk back on yourself.

Decent challenge with a few tricky holes

Though the front nine look straight forward, it still challenges the player to hit straight. The back nine is more traditional and has range of short and long holes.

Staff and other golfers are the friendliest I have met on a course around here.

First nine holes in the middle of the race course. But this makes it tight and interesting. Next nine are in woodland with some very challenging dog-legs.

Really enjoyed the round, very testing, really enjoyable.

Like playing on two different courses

The front 9 which has a few holes around water and the back 9 where you are under the shade of the shade of the trees with water hazards

Great !

A good course found using the app, front 9 is very tight and challenging, set within the race track but very good. Back 9 in a more scenic setting and nice to play.

Value for money was great, can’t complain at all, friendly staff and easy to find.

Not the best of starts, 7:30 tee time booked..Proshop wasn’t open to sign in, get told any local rules etc

Front 9 quite quirky being inside a racecouse

Whole course pretty poorly sign posted especially 15th green to 16th tee, spent 5 minutes wondering round looking where to go!

Course condition was pretty good considering recent weather

Probably won’t return!

Not a big fan, green conditions were very patchy big cracks in them. Course was poorly signposted from hole to hole making guesswork on what tee box to play off. I got a cheaper deal through app and didn’t think it was worth £19 in month of Sundays after hour I travelled to play course. No buggies available as they were being locked up as person looking after course was going home and didn’t want them to be vandalised. Overall a poor experience and poor course. I Won’t be going back in a hurry… if you were paying £30 to play this course I’d have asked for a refund

Nice course with 2 very different 9 holes, 2nd 9 has small greens which makes it more challenging

100 yards to the ‘green’, I thought - as long as I land this over the bunker, it should roll on. Turns out there was no bunker.

The ‘greens’ were more black, covered in everything but grass and unenjoyable to put it nicely.

The course itself has potential to be lovely, especially the back 9 but can’t escape the elephant in the room. Not value for money on this occasion.
