Brentwood Golf Club

We did enjoy to play at Brentwood GC and want to go back again!

The course was good and somewhat challenging, only problem was slow players, had 3 different tee times stood on the 10th hole waiting to play.

Very friendly pro in the pro shop. Good parking and car park security.

Course: Plenty of water, mid fairway trees and ditches to be challenging. Greens were in quite bad condition (heavily ridged, so maybe they'd been recently treated)). The weather was pretty perfect and plenty of wildlife (geese, pheasants, deer, rabbits), which helped overall enjoyment. Only real negative was the etiquette of other players - walking across other fairways, shouting at each other across the course (even when right next to tees) and failing to ring bells after clearing an area. We have played there before and don't remember that being a negative experience then so would probably give it another chance,

Nice course for this area that has got it all to give your game a test. Competitive and available, I will be back soon I hope.

Have always enjoyed playing at Brentwood, however this was less favourable. I appreciate there hasn’t been much rain but fairways were baked solid, greens had what appeared to be a fair amount of disease and were very bobbly and there were more stones than sand in some bunkers.

We paid £20pp which is very reasonable and we expected a slow round, but as a two ball we kept up with a two ball buggy and by the time we got to the 15th par 3, we were waiting for them to tee off as the group of 4 in front were waiting for every green to clear before teeing off. This was then factored in by a member who decided to push in on the 6th hole in a buggy (without asking us) and then decided after playing the 6th and teeing off on the 7th to then overtake the buggy in front to go onto the 8th, thus causing more congestion.

I enjoyed my game here at Brentwood. The fairways were quiet firm so the ball went farther but made chipping slightly harder with my wedges. Always made welcome and offers excellent value for money. The hilly terrain certainly keeps you fit! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this course whatever your handicap.

All tees were off mats and some mats needed improvement

Course was quite dry for this time of year

Also greens had been spiked so could have given more of a discount

Course was in good condition for the time of year and that the greens had been worked worked on, most bunkers had plenty of sand

Exceptionally wet and muddy but excellent value at around £9 per head. You could see that in better conditions that this was a nice track and probably well maintained year round.

Pace of play was awful. With four funereal four balls holding up the entire course. So much so we didn’t have time to finish the round.

Locker rooms clean, modern and tidy. Bar facilities likewise.

Lots of warnings regarding theft from vehicles but I suppose it is Essex!

Brentwood Golf course is normally great and is a challenging course but this weekend it was far too muddy and cold.

Staff was blunt and wasn’t very helpful and the course conditions was terrible for the price , would rather play a cheaper course as the conditions would be the same

Great course with a number of holes you have to think tactically about. Great breakfast too. Staff friendly & helpful.
