Value
The quality of the greens and general condition of the course was good, can remember when this was £20 to play though and can now be twice that price. Wondering if it’s worth it but always seems busy so fair play.
Lovely greens
Course is in great condition. Superb greens. Well worth playing.

Teed off at 15:30, the course was empty which made the round extremely enjoyable.
The Derby is a forgiving course which, if you've been beaten up by the Brabazon, is a great course to play. It's not long but you need to put the ball in the right place to make a score. The greens were in good condition and ran true..
The staff were very cheerful and very helpful..
An enjoyable round and great value.
Derby course the Belfry.
Course was in poor condition,greens were shocking. A place like the Belfry should have a course fit and in good condition for the amount of money you take for playing not good enough in my view.
Very good round, played a 2 ball which I thought was the correct amount, a 4 ball may slow the round too much, overall a very pleasant day.
Belfry Derby great course
Love the Derby. Greens are in perfect condition and lovely course.
Can't Fault Course or Staff, But Can Fault Golfers
So we arrived very early just so we could have a look around, The Brabazon was being sorted ready for the British Masters, but we were in awe at the place. Looked around the shop, checked in, had to get a course map book as a momento. We were driven from the shop to the first tee, given an idea of the layout as well as advice from the driver who's name I forgot but he was brilliant. So the course itself was by far the best condition I've ever played and I have played some good courses in excellent condition, me and my mate took photos and took the place in, it's the first time we had both been to a course that's standards were so high.
There were only a couple of issues that we both had, but these are things the resort themselves cannot help. Me and my friend didn't hear a single shout of "fore" and we were very close to getting hit a few times however we were shouting every time we had a wayward shot (which there is a fair few). On a couple of greens I spent a few minutes on them and the majority of that was repairing pitch marks, on one green in particular (16th hole) I found myself repairing around 8 none of which were ours. But I would still gladly go again, it was amazing! Either championship or Brabazon next time.
Bog
Should have been closed. Way too wet, mud bath in places. Profit first unfortunately.
Lovely course alongside two beauties
There is only one downside, and that’s the quests who play it! Loads of pitch markers and divots that don’t get repaired or replaced. Ground staff do a great job, greens are great, fast and true. Wide fairways but if you wander!!!
Derby Course Review
Nice course at Belfry but gave up after 13 holes due to incredible slow play, waiting on the tee for up to 10 mins on most holes so not enjoyable.
Shame, as staff course and amenities good but obviously over selling the course and not checking handicap certificates which slowed things down badly.
Another great round
My 2nd time playing the Derby course and the course knowledge really helped with shot selection from the tee where accuracy is rewarded. The course overall was in really good condition after the constant rain for the previous week, despite a few fairway bunkers still having standing water - just shows how well the rest of the course is maintained. Greens were receptive, had some break to them although being on the slow side but it's a real shame a lack of players repair their pitch-marks on and around the greens, causing some putts to bobble badly. Overall though a fantastic day out on a brilliant course and will definitely be playing again in the near future.
Derby Day
Great course conditions, greens true. Very well organised set up.
Nicely laid out with some challenging holes. Good condition considering only just opened after COVID-19.
