Wet Day

I was a Founder Member back in 1994, when I couldn't play golf. I have played the course once or twice since relinquishing my membership in 1997. The hole numbering has changed for the better. The interior of the building is nice. The course is great. However the bunkers looked more like ponds yesterday and the sand is hard packed and stoney. It was raining so the ponds can be forgiven but the do need to be draining better.

Great course & great value for the money.

Overall the course was in great condition & the greens were really good, but slow. A lot of work going re paths for buggies but the course is playing well. Would definitely recommend, even better if you can get on a hot deal like we did !

Greens

Bunkers bunkers bunkers

Played here end of April, lovely day with pals. Greens not great and need more care from the greens keepers. There are far to many fairway bunkers in poor condition. One par 5 must have a dozen bunkers which are huge. Pot luck if you miss one from the tee box. Some interesting holes and a stiff test having not played for 9 months due to Covid. Still a good day out but fairway bunkers ruin a fairly decent course

Good value course

Great course for the money until a single lady member decided to play behind us on 13 which was very distracting as she was hitting her ball up to us at times. We walked in at 16.

Great value but rough around the edges

Woolston is great value and a fair test. The fairways and greens are good but not great. We dropped out of the bunkers as they seemed to have forgotten to add sand LOL. Tony and the team are always great, thanks chaps.

Good condition course but very slow round

Pretty forgiving course with generous fairways, moderate difficulty. First day after lockdown meant that course was crazy busy, two very slow four balls together meant everyone was backed up behind. Course in reasonable condition, a little muddy in places and greens were a little bumpy.

Sorry no photos to backup, I don't take phone on the course. First off the pro was very unfriendly (Golfnow) more trouble than it's worth. The greens were excellent condition. The bunkers were like swimming pools The fairways were very very heavy going balls plugging on near enough every shot.

This is/was a lovely course when it's dry and sunny......it can not cope with the WET stuff. Shame

Turned away no refund!

Very poor service

Booked online and when I got to the course they wouldn’t let me use my own electric trolley!

Offered a push trolley or carry the bag!

At 65 and a weakened back I don’t think so

No response to complaints

The course is rubbish anyway so don’t go there
