Rude staff

Dealt with a Lady in tge shop who was trying to help but then another lady got involved who looked more like a golfer got involved with tge situation and she was very rude. When I showed her she was in the wrong with what she was claiming, she also didn't have the decency to apologise for her attitude. We didn't play tge round but wouldn't return due to this woman's behaviour.

Championgate Golf Experience

Course layout very good...pace of play excellent. Only negative is that there was no water on the course and it was a very warm day......little things make the difference and management & staff are the ones responsible for that.

Worth Your Time

This is an excellent course. Challenging but fair. The GPS on the cart is to the pin location, and yardages are accurate.

The only issue I faced was the slow play from members (yes, I am assuming, but because they had their own carts).

Great Course - Management Needs To Pay Attention

This course is awesome. But players are not filling divots, raking bunkers and repeiaring ball marks. It's a lovely well-maintained course, the management needs to pay more attention to the players messing it up.

Pace sorted by marshalls

In extremely hot weather we (& all behind us)were being held up by 2 fourballs. This was promptly rectified by marshalls who arranged for us to play through - great service compared to some other courses.

The course was in great condition despite the exceptionally hot weather, greens true & fair.

Staff were all friendly & helpful.

Championsgate Country Club

Not to be confused with the high profile Champions Gate course, but do not discard this course. Well worth playing as it is in great condition. Highly recommended, great team running golf and the club house. No regrets to having been confused between the two courses and decided to play this course again instead!

The club house team are welcoming and friendly. Even ate breakfast (ok an English thing!) before the round. Happy to have played twice and will be back again.

Couple of alligators on hole two, they were more scared to see me than I was to hear the splash … I was never in danger, but aren’t they cute!

Then and Ali and a turtle around hole seven, just those eyes trying to stare me out from a calm distance.

The golf was great and one we will remember and return again to this course. Enjoyed the golf and the team experience. Well done team country club!

ChampionsGate Country Club

Initially two issues. I confused this booking with the well known Champions Gate course (my mistake). We however followed directions from Golf Now and that did NOT take us to the country club, but fortunately we had time to correct the location.

Accepting we booked the Country Club we played and very much enjoyed the round. A course in great condition and interesting to play. The course is wrapped around a property estate and there are extended travel between Green and tee, but this did not detract from the experience.

A great course in good condition, better than many we have played in the area by far. Some interesting and attractive holes, with water and bunker challenges. We accepted the challenge and very much enjoyed the course, so much so we booked again before we go back to the UK!

The main building had good facilities, food was varied and better than most we experienced in the area, even better than the up market expensive courses. I enjoyed the “Full Breakfast” and excellent service.

Do not be put off, a great course and very much worth playing. Thank you to the team at the Country Club!
