First rain in weeks and the greens flooded!
I was baffled how the geeens flooded after only reasonable rain, no torrents and this after weeks of drought conditions. The course itself was reasonable given the lack of rain but the greens were painful as puddles everywhere. Towards the end of our round they had two guys out squeegeeing the greens but only because there was a club championship following us so not much use to us. They have ripped out whatever reed’s etc were in a pond within a par-3 and it looks a real mess but other water features were nice, the course is very flat so needs some features on it and they worked pretty well. The tee boxes were a bit chatty but not as bad as some courses and it wasn’t a bad experience, we both shot exactly our handicap despite some rain and the flooded greens. I’d say a quite decent course but not convinced £30 is great value tbh. Great bar and golf shop though so off-course is 5*.
Trent lock 2nd visit
Played here with 3friends who had never played the course before. We were all impressed at the layout and course conditions, considering the lack of rain in recent weeks it was surprisingly good. Had a breakfast in the clubhouse before. We couldn't really fault anything tbh , had a bout of rain for 3 holes but that really was the only damp squib. Excellent value for money too , less than £40 for a Sunday morning.
A ‘need to know’ kinda course
As you’d expect in Jun, course in good condition, greens excellent and green staff busying around. Very much a parkland layout with a number of hazards and doglegs.
Would like to play again as I now know the course a little bit
Trent Locke 18 hole
Forgiving Fairways but you have to plot your way around the course as there are many brooks with water. Greens in great condition. Very flat course with no hills.
Trent Lock Riverside course is a great challenge, the greens are immaculate and quick. In fact the whole course is in great condition. Staff and green keepers are friendly and must love the course like we did, great day out. Would recommend…
Nice Course good condition,
Nice course with plenty of sand and water hazards good challenge
Same as ever
Been playing here for almost 20yrs. Over that time there’s been a few changes. Like the 2nd and the 3rd hole. More recently the 4th and 6th green expansions. But overall hasn’t really changed. Would like to see the water extended more, especially on 1st, 10th, 8th, 16th & 17th.
Greens are ok. Definitely need more heavy rolling.
Overall it’s ok. Bit boring and flat.
Water water everywhere!
A proper testing course with plenty water hazards and bunkers. Tightish fairways and some dog leg short par 4's which encourages you not to use driver but it's then what do you use as you can put yourself in trouble using driver on quite a few holes. Greens were tough with some really hard pin positions which makes me think I might have played it on captains weekend/drive etc. Overall very nice and testing and last hole is a good signature hole.
Great value
Paid £25, for 5pm tee off. Finished before it got dark too!
Course in excellent condition, despite lack of rain during April.
Greens quick and true, with some tricky slopes.
Some friendly members joined us for last two holes. This is when my game disintegrated, but performed a miracle on the 18th when my topped drive skimmed across the lake to find dry land. Still ended up with a quadruple bogey as my first effort off the tee met a watery grave 🤣
Terrific Trent
A really nice course with variation and challenge in equal measure. When I played it was well presented with fairways, tee boxes and around the greens clearly defined snd prepared The bunkers had sufficient sand and the water traps had decent quantity of water. The greens were well presented and were true. No complaints. Off the course theee was an American Golf outlet with everything you need and a very nice restaurant. Again nothing not to like. My only gripe. No club ball marker. 😩
