Not having playing this course for 20yrs was pleasantly surprised, by the massive improvements that have been made, with new or extended holes introduced, the fairways are wide enough for even the loosest of shots, greens are for the most part in very good condition, the rough is minimal witch in turn helps with lost balls and speeds up play, great day, great course, and excellent value for money, can’t wait for my next visit

Quality Course

Course in great condition . Fairways and greens immaculate. Great value for money £15 for 5.20pm tee off time allows a full round in daylight at this time of year. Some great holes. That long Par 5 up and down the hill is a challenge and not even the Stroke 1 index hole, that’s reserved for the 200 yard uphill Par 3.
Only shame was bar closed by time we finished, but great pub the Greyhound in the village a mile up the road.

Nice for the price

Forest hill was a nice course to play. After reading previous reviews that mentioned the greens were awful in the rain. I played in rain today and they ran completely fine. I would recommend to any level of player.

Not played this course for 20yrs and must say it has improved massively, it’s has been much extended, with new holes, fairways are well kept, and wide enough,
Greens however are a little unpredictable for speed I found, sadly club house is been refurbished, but pro shop is open and there is somewhere to food and drink, pace of play was reasonable, I will for sure be returning, to take on the brutal 11 and 14 holes, superb course don’t overlook it

Revt

Course is in good condition and offers a good challenge. The bushes in the pond on the 3rd could do with being cut back as they give you a blind second shot.

Lovely course

Some really good holes here and 2 pavilion approach holes (9 & 18) is most definitely a first for me.
Course is constantly being maintained by friendly ground staff.
Definitely will be visiting again.

Potential very good

Potentially a very good course.
The pro-shop was excellent and the facilities look good, sadly the facilities weren’t open.
The dry spell we’re in hasn’t done the greens any favors.
Enjoyed it!

Poor greens

I was a member here until about 3 years ago.
The greens were always immaculate.
I played thinking about re-joining but greens in terrible state for this time of year.
Very disappointed and won't be back.

Decent track in rolling hills of Leicestershire

This course has great potential, unfortunately we caught it on a day where the greens are still being treated with a lot of sand and drainage work being completed. Hopefully this will improve greens for later in year.

Don't play when wet. Drainage issue

So this course may be totally different in summer but was a total mud bath from start to finish. Only course I've played with water hazards on the putting green from all the puddles. The tee areas were like football goal mouths and hadn't been mowed for weeks. Not a pleasant experience and think there is clearly a drainage issue.
