Surrey Downs Golf Club

Played at end Feb after a very wet few weeks when other courses were waterlogged. This course drains well and was in very good condition. Good pace of play on a busy Friday afternoon. Good clubhouse facilities and very friendly staff. Recommended.

Everything was fine for the first 6 holes, then we got stuck behind a 4 ball, hitting tee shots 30 yards, losing balls all over, playing 8 plus shots each hole. At one stage there were 4 x 2 balls back to back behind. No etiquette clearly not understanding the concept of play through. Divots everywhere sadly people don’t bother repairing or replacing. Otherwise course was in good nick and a good experience.

Really nice interesting course, most greens very good, only one mat in the thick of rainy winter. Great value for £32.50 on a Friday morning.

From the time upon our arrival to check in at the pro shop then going out to play this splendid course then finish off in the fantastic club house for after round drinks, i must say the friendly members and bar staff made us feel most welcome this is one of my favourite venues to visit and obviously will be going back many more times in the coming year as the condition of the course was absolutely amazing considering the time of year and everything involved in making Surrey Downs a real pleasure to come along and play well done guys this place is going from strength to strength keep up the great work and I'll be back sooner rather than later thank you.👏👏👏👏🫶👌

Everytime I play at this course, it seems to always be slow. I played a few weeks back with the same issue.

We played a 2ball, and were behind another two 2 balls.

When we booked our 2ball, we left the 2 other spaces free on GOLFNOW obviously, and when we turned up, there was a 3ball waiting there! Not sure how they managed to do that but they let us play first which was the right thing to do!

We eventually caught up the 2 balls after maybe 4holes that started a hole 40mins before us! So should have been well clear of us.

They weren’t in competition but they were playing off the white tees. Now I’m not one to judge, But these two fellas shouldn’t have been playing off the whites, I’m not even sure they could handle the yellows, one looked like he had never played. They didn’t let us play through or even suggest that we could. Just made us wait.

This is a recurring theme at this golf club, too much pride and not letting others through. I eventually ended up a one ball as my playing partner had a bad back and didn’t want to risk it. So from hole 10, I played alone. And they still wouldn’t let me play through! I spent the next 9 holes waiting for them to hack it up the fairway. Surrey downs must start sending out marshals to sort this out.

On a plus, the course is still in great shape for all the rain we’ve had.

Paid £50 per head and the general opinion of the 4 ball was this course was not value for money,

Quite a few uninspiring holes and I know that we have had some serious amounts of rain but the bunkers were awful with a number of them GUR with grass growing in them and many with literally no sand in them at all.

The greens were in decent condition with some interesting slopes.

Fair to say we will not be returning here

Since the drainage modifications were made, this course has been consistently good to play. Greens were very true and all other areas of the course were very well maintained. A pleasure to play!

Very nice course at a very reasonable rate for a late booking. Would recommend!

I was shocked the green fee was only £40 after 2 pm the buggy was 38 lol

Nice course set in surreys sweeping hills with some good vistas. Greens were in good condition. Price was good. Just felt the course was quite open and not many challenges so slightly dull on this aspect. Fairways needed a cut. Nice bar.

A friend and I met half way for a round and my ratings may seem a bit harsh however I am basing it off of the rather steep green fee. We thought we’d give it a go as neither of us had played here before and pictures looked good.

The course layout was nice a few boring holes, the greens were true and in fairly good condition and time to get round was also good. Sign posts hole to hole could be useful and annoying we were told to get tokens at the range to then be told we can only receive tokens at the shop.

However, there was no water in any of the tried 5 ball cleaner facilities round the course, the tee boxes were scruffy, full of divots / holes etc. and just lacked a bit of TLC all round. 2/5 may seem harsh but £57.50 is a ridiculous price to charge. £30 tops is all it is worth and we will look elsewhere in the area to play next time.

First time playing this course, I enjoyed it and shot a good round. Grass was in good conditions and greens were nice. Bunkers could do with some better sand and when we caught up to a bottle neck near the end it was painfully slow. Think there was a comp or something on. Enjoyable round still

Surrey Downs is a hidden gem. It really is a great course with undulating greens, testing holes and playing positional shots so you can attack flags is key. Great Bar and course is in very good condition

Good conditions on the course, greens and fairways all in good shape. Nice wide fairways helped though the long grass rough was penal. Very nice views of the Surrey downs and it was good that each hole was numbered and identified as was the directions to the next hole if not next to the previous green. All in all an enjoyable days play.
