Still value fir money

Regular visitor to this 9 hole, 16 tees course.

Desperately in need a good soaking.

Fast running course with very little defence against straight tee or fairway shots. Stray however and your ball will run thro the first cut of rough and into trouble.

The greens however are standing up to the recent dry spell, well paced and consistent. Bunkers do vary in sand depth and lie... ( USE THE F-ING RAKES)

Very well priced and still a challenge for mid/high handicappers.

Great apart from nearly getting hit by 2 golf balls on the 2nd by a couple of eager ones who couldn’t wait to be waved through and fancied playing the same hole at the same time

Slow

Only 1 and a group of 3 on the course and I still had to wait at tee box to tee off could of let me through at least 3 times only reason they did is because I was hitting the ball when they was still on green to get them moving took me over 2 hours for 9 holes and only 30 minutes after I got in front ball easy to lose even on fairways

Delayed, but rough but OK

Little frustrating to have to start late and mid course because of a late running comp but the staff was helpful. The course is tricky and boggy in places due to amount of rain (not allot can be done about this I know).

Lovely course, haven’t played for a while here and it is much better than that time, where it was still good. Fairways and greens immaculate, soil boxes at par 3 tees “nice touch”.

Good mornings golf

Very neat course well maintained . Staff and members friendly. Only downside one or two bunkers not raked, but that has nothing to do with the course, only bad etiquette by a minority of players.

18 whitwood holes

Presently suprised by the course modifications and new layout of the back 9 holes.

Greens were in good condition and fairways were fast due to the dry weather.

The only issue was the time it took to get round the second 9. The front 9 I was round in 80 minutes due to an early tee off, however the back 9 took nearly 3 hours due to a 4 starting their front 9 before us which affected everyone’s game by the end.

Ever improving Whitwood

Regular visitor to this little 9 hole gem.

Perfect for beginners and intermediate golfers.

16 tees provide sufficient variety on this 9 hoke layout.

Putting green and warm up nets.

Course probably at its best at the moment ..... greens excellent and consistent as always. Fairways and bunkers in good shape.

Well worth a visit.
