Friendly welcome lovely course
The lady in Pros shop was so friendly and so helpful. Even checking that I have enough fluids for day: she also let me know where to get scorecards. Changing rooms etc. Lovely welcome. The fairways and greens are in pretty good condition: my only small constructive criticism would be signage at where the 4/5/17 are; as it is quite easy to follow the logical link thinking the 17 is the 5th.. There are two signs but one for the 5th is before the 17th still pointing in that direction. Definitely will play again. Thank you for a lovely afternoon.
A decent knock that's a step above your average muni
Played here on a hot July evening. Pro in the shop was helpful and advised of some interesting bits of routing as I played alone. First 9 pace was slowish as members in front playing comp were in woods and marking 2 footers, but second 9 when they went in (lots to a loop of 11 it seems) was much better - 3.5 hours for 18 holes.
Course in good knick throughout and greens were decent but had seen a lot of play - you can tell they do comps on Wednesdays! Greens themselves were surprisingly soft so a few pitch marks not tended to but not the fault of the course management.
All in all an enjoyable visit and I would absolutely go back - a definite step above tou average municipal. At £25 I thought it was good value.
Absolute gem of a course
1st time playing here and for £23 a round you will not find better value in berkshire.
The fairways were near perfect and the greens were in incredible condition. The rough was challenging but you could usually find your ball. And the overall maturity of the course with its tree lined fairways was great. Will 100% be back here to play.
Fantastic
Great course, challenging for high handicapper but well worth it. Stunning views over Ridgeway and Coombe Gibbet.
Slow play
The course was surprisingly wet and so played quite a bit longer. Our round was negatively impacted by slow play. In fact over the last 3 holes we had the unacceptable situation of a 1 ball holding up a 3 ball and our 2 ball. Why do some players think it’s acceptable to play 4+ hour rounds? They also seem to be the most arrogant!
Fun course
Quite ling off the whites and very playable off the yellows. All clubs in the bag needed. Some proper par 5's. Accuracy off the tee needed and a good challenge for all levels of golfers. A bit out of the way but great value and a really good set up. Will defintely be back. Course in great condition.
Very enjoyable round!
Not my first time playing here, but first time reviewing it. First round back since Lockdown changed the world and the course is in excellent condition. It's not an easy course to play, if you're wayward off the tee you'll not find many easy ways out of trouble. The Green's were in excellent condition. Can't praise the course enough really, always welcoming. We had nobody behind or in front, so was a nice paced round.
Very Enjoyable
Lovely Course - good value for money, some stunning holes and very enjoyable round
Great value course
Great tree lined course, with good mix of holes. Condition very good overall and excellent value
