Theydon Bois Golf Club

I usually really enjoy playing Theydon Bois.. Unfortunately this time wasn't one of them.

The greens were in the worse condition I've ever seen them.

Ok they had been cored and sanded at some point in the last week, but they looked scruffy and hadn't been cut for over a week.

Spoiled what could have been a superb round.

I played this course with a mate the first time for both of us , the course was presented beautifully , it’s not a very long course but because of the layout & trees , it is a course which you have to plot your way around so keep the driver in your bag , the tees were flat & well kept , fairways well maintained , bunkers with sand in ( makes a change ) & last but not least the greens were superb , all this after 2 days of heavy rain . The staff in the pro shop & bar were very friendly & helpful , the other golfers there were also very nice & friendly , I recommend this golf course , go treat yourself I know I will be back 👍🏻

The club has a new crew looking after the course. Significant improvements have been made and the greens are greatly improved. The staff are always very welcoming.

Came here for the first time. Was a nice course but drainage was awful. Soaking wet fairways and greens. I think I’d come back in the summer when it’s dried up. Some of the lads behind us walked off after 9. Overall its what you get for winter golf but just a shame about poor drainage and slow play.

Very nice golf course, picturesque parkland layout, fairways in good condition, really enjoyed the time there

Short, mainly woodland course with a fair number of tight tee shots. A good number of dogleg holes, fairways a little bare and muddy on the approaches to the greens, some work had been done to rectify but not yet taken. Greens themselves true if covered in tree detritus. Slow end to round due to midweek club competition.

Held a society day at the course. Everything was perfect. Breakfast served as players arrived so was fresh. Staff were helpful and accommodating in terms of diets. There was a big society in front of us and pro shop ensured there was a big gap between us going out and them as our group was much smaller. Whist we saw the society ahead we never caught them up or were waiting on them. Corse was in good condition and all had a good day. The club has a lovely patio area to sit out on. Would thoroughly recommend for a society day out!

I played here a year ago and cannot believe the improvements the club has made to the course in the space of 12 months. The greens are superb and you can see a lot of work has taken place to improve the entire course. This is a challenging course but you don’t need to be a big hitter to conquer it. It’s a course for everyone and particularly those who think. My tip is leave the driver in your bag for half the holes.

A very enjoyable day and very welcoming staff members. Having played all the courses in the areas this is the club I have deciy to join.

An attractive golf course set within Epping Forest. The course is quite short but is a strategic test. The course is more about your position off the tee rather than length. The greens were true and had subtle borrows that were not always easy to read. Overall it presented a reasonable challenge and accuracy was rewarded with plenty of birdie opportunities. I will definitely come and play again.

Short course, enjoyable round, the greens and fairways in good condition

I have played theydon bois a few years ago and it wasn't in great condition so didn't want to go back.

I played yesterday for £20 and it's in superb condition.

The greens are fantastic.

They have spent alot of money on new greenkeepers and it shows.

£20 on Mon and Tues is actually incredible

Well done theydon

Fantastic

Good value greens had been worked on so they were slow

Tricky little course

The course is in very good condition. We played the course on a Monday morning and the price was reduced to £20pp. Which is value for money. I would definitely play at Theydon Bois again.

This is a great example of a golf course that requires brain over brawn. Great condition with super fast greens

We played here last year and really enjoyed it. Unfortunately this time the course was in really poor condition the greens were damaged and holes 15,16 and 17 were almost unplayable and we were charged £35 .

Such a shame, nice little course just in very poor condition in areas due to the wet weather we had earlier in the year

The course is in poor condition due to lack of care. It will need a few years to recover. They are silly to charge people £39 a round on a weekend. It is shocking.

Animal holes on the greens which are also heavily sanded. Uneven tee boxes. Bumpy, scared fairways. The 17th is mud with lines of grass at one point.

Overall it’s a real shame, because the course layout is nice, so once the course is restored, it could be a nice challenging little course.

Terrible course. The course is in poor condition due to lack of care. This isn’t damage from one winter. This is from years of poor maintenance.

The course design is nice and makes use for surroundings. However, the current condition and work being done, they are silly to charge £39pp! I think no more than £20-25pp as it stands.
