Kept open in awful conditions. Lost over 20 balls due to plugging. Will not play this course again.
Shocking
Staff very friendly, greens nice for winter.
That's where it ends!! Absolutely unplayable fairways!! Disgraceful that it was even open.
Should have understood the hidden warning on the start box "feel free to tee it up on the fairways!"
Really disappointed as played this course in the summer and it is stunning. Really don't understand why it's open when it's this bad. Lost 6 balls on the fairways!! Whole ball plugs.
Do Not Play In Winter- Appalling
We played the Roman Road in February & the course should have been shut, it was unplayable. There hadn’t been any significant rainfall for days, but despite this, the course was very wet. Every fairway was like a swamp & hadn’t been mowed or maintained for months based on the grass growth. Every part of the course was so wet that your ball became plugged and could not be found. Bunkers were in a terrible state and have no sand in them at all. It appeared that the course has been left to deteriorate and is getting no investment at all. Celtic Manor are quite literally robbing customers when charging to play in those conditions. There was no warning at all from staff that the course was in this condition and no offer of reimbursement when questioned.
Great looking course
Brilliant course just horrendously wet , in my opinion it probably shouldn’t have been open , nice layout of the course and couldn’t fault the greens but as for the rest the course fairways were very poor
Course waterlogged
The course should have been closed as it was waterlogged and unplayable. Only managed 9 holes.
Booked on website but at no point it was mentioned that the course was waterlogged.
It was a waste of money.
Great course layout
I enjoyed the course only bad thing was fairways were very bogey soon as ball landed it plugged once you got to green they were in great condition very fast but spot on I was a single player but 4 groups let me through which was good they was doing a challenge on one of par 3 which you paid £10 if you got on green you got a free game and if you got hole in one a 10 year membership would definitely play again but in summer
Boggy
Course was extremely wet due to recent heavy rain . Starter warned us that the greens were superb ( they were) but the fairways might plug - an understatement!
Lost a ball on first fairway - plugged somewhere in middle of fairway? Most courses would not be open with fairways squelching like this. My playing partner slipped over twice the first time got up with muddy back and elbow but second time slide down a slope was absolutely covered in mud from ankles to shoulders - left course at 10th green!
Did not do a great course justice being open when sensibly it should be closed.
A wast of time and money
The course was a quagmire it should have been closed.
I lost 4 balls on the fairway, 4 plugged balls. On the fairway! I would like to be reimbursed for the lost pro Vs.
Maybe in the summer time it would have been ok…
But it’s also £60 for a buggy….
Roman Road GC
This is a nightmare of a course. Not for high handicap golfers. Every hole up hill and down dale. I had a buggy luckily but two of my son's didn't. They could not play the next day. Lost many balls found none. Good luck if you decide to play there
Absolute gem 💎
Booked last minute and couldn’t have been better. Starter was very friendly and offered some good advice. Course is looking fantastic but greens were too quick for the ‘average’ golfer. Lovely front 9 layout and tough back 9 playing around the hotel.
Great course, no course Marshall
Great resort and a fantastic place to play Golf, played here quite a few times before.
Unfortunately this time with tee times atb12:30 and 12:40, by 16:50 we walked off after having played 12 holes, with 12 people waiting on the tees.
No Marshals on the course to move play along and one 3 ball holding the course up with no one in front of them. The manger blamed lack of staff, but there are still Guys stood on the Par 3s selling tickets for hitting the green🤔.
We played Roman Rd this time, greens and fairways fantastic, but very little sand in the bunkers.
All members of staff were more than helpful and a great place to play, just a shame it isn't marshalled better to keep pace of play up. YMC.
Roman Road on a Wet Tuesday
With the weather being so wet over the last month, we expected the course to be be wet and except for the greens, it surely was!
The greens were excellent and the layout of the course is superb.
All in all, despite the weather, we had a good day in a great venue.
