Nice course, greens need work
Lovely course and surroundings, it's just a shame that over 50% of the greens were just put on the slope. These greens need levelling out.
Apart from that, it's a nice course with plenty of opportunities with some short par 4's
Not the best
Overall the round was fine but not one of the better courses in the area. Too many tee shots on the front 9 straight into the afternoon sun so no chance of tracking the ball. Even though I was told all greens were in play at the club shop more than half were temporary. Had to wait on every single tee, groups not letting people play through.
Good afternoon experience
Played with a colleague, corse fairways played exceptionally well, greens were difficult to read and quite unforgiving.
Would definitely play course again and give more attention to reading the greens.
Great course / bad pace of play
The last 3 times I’ve played here the pace of play has been very disappointing - the course in the afternoon always seems to be very very slow going - that aside I absolutely love this golf course which is why I return everytime
Wensum Valley
Played the Valley Course-Good challenge and course in great condition.
Sunday afternoon round
Disappointed about there being no Marshall’s out on what was clearly a busy days on the course. We teed off at 2.30 and has only got to the 14th hole by 6pm. Took all enjoyment out of our day and we walked off the course. It would have genuinely taken over 5 and half hours to play the valley course which is a joke considering I’ve been round before in under 3!! Won’t be playing on a weekend there again.
Good course in the rain
The pace of play on the Friday we went was very good until the last two holes, then a three ball refused to let anyone play through even though they were playing slow. The very heavy rain meant most, if not all, of the greens were very water logged. Puddles in the greens. Sometimes unputtable. But the layout of the course is fantastic. Good for beginners and high handicappers.

Wensum Valley
Valley course-good condition course and good speed of play
Wensum Valley - Tough, Fair and Enjoyable
Firstly the staff were excellent and accommodating. The course is challenging in places and offered something different on every hole. Excellent course and excellent value.
Shame too many 3 balls in front and behind! slow pace
Normally a good round can be played but there was too many 3 balls in front and behind playing which too ages to wait and you tend to lose interest after a while due to waiting and players of mixed abilities in the groups.
We all need to learn but a very slow pace this day.
Could be better
Could be better just played it at the wrong time off the year
