Stockley Park Golf

Played here last in September 2022 and it was a great course, very challenging and required control.

This time in august 2023 the course was in really bad shape, losing balls in the “first cut” off the fairway, on one of the holes we lost two balls just off the fairway. The greens were really very very poor - huge divots and holes by animals. Cracked earth with no grass - impossible to play with any precision.

I know there is a new grounds keeper who was keen to talk, he’s got a big job on his hands to get the course back to where it was. Avoid for now!

While this course may have once been a golfer's haven, its condition in 2023 is disheartening. The greens are among the worst I've encountered; for perspective, I've played on fairways that were smoother. Even at the discounted "Hot Deals" rate of £25, it's difficult to justify playing here when there are superior courses available for the same price. I'd place its actual value closer to that of an £18 course.

The course is expansive, but its neglected state means you're likely to lose balls just an inch off the fairway in the first cut of rough. It's evident that the groundkeepers have not invested the care and attention needed to maintain the course. The end result is an overgrown landscape with woefully inadequate greens

Could be a real good course, but horribly kept overgrown greens are rubbish and tee boxes over grown and horrible.

Has to be one of the worst kept courses in London. The greens are unplayable. They have 2-3inch craters in them, long grass and are totally bare of grass in places.

The bunkers have little to no sand and have rocks throughout. Do not play unless you don’t mind damaging your clubs.

The tee boxes play as though you’re hitting a shot from the rough and usually only have one tee box marker so is extremely unclear where to play from.

Ive played public courses with a better standard than this 18 hole ‘course’. Awful.

I really enjoyed the course, but and it's a big but the greens are a big let down.

The tees and fairways are in very good condition, but the greens are some of the worst I've played on. The 10th in particular is like a cabbage patch, I've seen temporary greens in far better condition.

Friendly girl at the desk and easy to book. If they can improve the quality of the greens it will be a gem of a course.

Found the layout absolutely brilliant, the fairways fairly good, some of the holes looks so good, only issue with the course is the greens are absolutely terrible, played a fair amount of courses an unfortunately one of the worst greens, the 10th hole has to have the worst green I have played on, hope that they fix this soon, this course has so much potential really.

Used to love playing this course I can’t believe just how bad it was. We only paid £12.50 through Golf Now but my suggestion to them would be to cut association with Stockley, easily the worst condition golf course I have ever played on and the worst condition I’ve ever seen that course in. It will take years to get that back to a playable standard. Wouldn’t play here again if it was free

Very disappointed played here about a month ago and the course was in much better condition not sure what has gone wrong but the greens and tee boxes were in terrible conditions such a shame because it usually in good condition all year round

Having played stockley park golf course for many years and seen the changes made over this time I can only say that none of these have been for the better.

The layout has changed so many times my watch doesn’t know where it is most of the time.

It’s hard to see where the green staff spend their time and money as the course is quite frankly appalling.

Tee boxes are uncut. The general state of the pathways around the course is terrible with bramble and nettles out of control and the greens are the worst I have seen for a long time.

It would appear that the owners are more interested in the restaurant than the course.

I personally will not return to stockley park.

Have played here a few years ago and the course was in a lot better condition then. Greens completely burnt , Tee boxes poor , bunkers unkept and full of stones and no rakes & pace of play atrocious 2.5 hours to play 9 holes so never made it past the club house to the 10th . This place has so much potential if only someone took control . On a positive note the off course facilities were great nice club house and the staff were very friendly

This course is awful Green are in a bad bad state shop was poor beers were flat would not recommend to anyone

Excellent value for money. The course is looking good and clearly see money being spent well to bring this back up to scratch. Love the hazards and the few doglegs.

Bins on nearly every tee box, so no excuse for littering / keeping bag clean.

Some holes have some really heavy rough so expect to lose / drop a few balls.

Tee boxes are ok and greens are 90% there.

Nice to see the hole info boards are at every hole now. Also, some direction signs are up now too. Got a bit lost when first played here a month ago.

Club shop is small and has a few items of clothing etc. small selection of cold drinks and not a lot of snack choices.

Staff have been pleasant.

Wouldn’t go amiss if groups were told to let smaller ones play through. Played here 3 times in the last two months and have had problems with pace of play. Some groups have a bad attitude towards letting people play through.

Maybe I have been unlucky the 3 times I’ve been. For the money that’s a minor niggle.

Feel blessed this is on my doorstep.

Just for comparison… Iver now charge £15-£18 for 9 holes. Uxbridge is £13 for 12 and this is £12.50 for 18 and the conditions are so much better than the other courses.

I have played stockley park a few times pre-pandemic and I'm pretty sure they haven't maintained the course since. One of the worst courses i've played, the friend i played with was shocked at how bad it was.

Fairway’s we’re really nice the greens were fairly quick decent roll on them pretty good for this time of year but the ruff was ridiculously long rolling a foot or two off the fairways meant an almost certain drop because finding your ball in that was nearly impossible I lost at least four balls after hitting the fairway and I only just rolled into the thick stuff a foot or two not a chance and I was playing well but the five ball in front of us killed it and to be totally honest that was the far worse than the forest of ruff all of us found most of the way around 5:30 hours for a 3 ball is shocking and the 2 ball behind us hardly troubled us to allow through but they had no chance as the 5 ball wasn’t having it the two ball was happy to take it slow but zero golf etiquette from the 5 ball and they had buggy’s as well it ruined the day for us but overall wasn’t too bad but just cut the ruff a bit would definitely help with the pace of play and make sure a decent gap given to players other then that it’s an ok little course.
