Excellent

Great course, challenging for our group (relatively new players) pace was alright sadly held up by a 4 ball who weren’t helpful with anyone trying to get past them, not the courses fault in anyway

The course is well maintained and the grounds are well looked after, genuinely a brilliant play and can’t Recommend the place enough

Will definitely be back again

Long and tough, a real challenge

Great staff, Justin and Barry in the pro shop will look after you from the off. Some of the narrowest fairways around. You best bring your A game to walk in with a decent score. Great condition, greens lightning fast, fairly flat but some tricky reads. Don’t be fooled into thinking it is over once on Green, you best give them the respect they deserve. Not for players that like to drive and wedge particularly off the whites. Can recommend Bondhay to the straight, long and brave, others beware.

Very nice tight course

Love this course excellent value for money … some cracking holes along with some long par 5s only down side is slow play .. the course is tight lined by trees but green staff do a brill job of cutting under trees so you can’t really lose a ball … down side is that members who play regularly but still hit balls in the trees I find it hard to believe and that’s what causes the slow play ,, in a two ball and four ball would not let you play through so having to wait on every tee … other than that I didn’t mind too much … it’s a brill course and fun and would recommend everyone who loves golf to go and play …

Algarve on my door step

Yeh reminds me of Portugal! Always loved the course, not good enough yet to play it anywhere near my hdcp, I'll get there one day when I've played it more, once I've joined as a member. Pretty much love every hole. Will check out the par 3 and driving range at somepoint for myself, others have said poor and in need of upgrade. I just love the course, can you tell!

This long, tight course is an excellent challenge for most golfers. On arrival, the course looked in superb condition with fairways beautifully mown. However, on our visit, the greens were not quite the same standard, being a little slow and bumpy. Even so, we had an excellent day out.

Perfect weather
Walked

Greens need a bit of attention

It is early in the season but thought the greens needed a bit of attention and the fairways were quite long in parts. The course is challenging and interesting and in places very tight. Enjoyed the round in great weather but feel the course and the clubhouse would benefit from a little TLC.

Fantastic course

Outstanding course. Fantastic layout and in immaculate condition. Really enjoyed our round. However....we called into the clubhouse for a drink and something to eat but after standing at the bar for 10 minutes waiting there was nobody around to serve us so had to leave without.

Excellent Challenging Course

For mid March this course is in very good condition and one-off the few courses where you can take buggies most of the year. With tree lined fairways and strategically placed bunkers it's a thinkers course. Highly recommended. Staff very friendly and check out the Winter deals with various food options. Great value for money

Disappointing

Having played the course on numerous occasions I was disappointed to find out on arrival that there were 9 temporary greens due to a morning frost. We teed off at 12.30 with no evidence of the morning frost due to the bright sunny conditions. The temporary greens in place were very disappointing and we could see no reason why the course at that time couldn’t have been fully opened.

Slightly disappointing

First few holes were on temporary greens. I can understand why but when we played the ground was nicely thawed out. Thankfully after a few holes the green keepers woke up and moved the pins back to normal greens.

I need to return

Booked last minute so had to follow a 3 ball in a comp so slow round, however that made me think about the course more than usual and what a enjoyable round. It's a challenge to miss every bunker and some difficult water hazards but challenge met and after 18 hole's I came off with massive smile on my face.
Will definitely be back soon.

Fantastic coursr

The course was in fantastic condition, the only downside was they were winter greens as there had been an overnight frost & the groundskeeper was looking after the greens. The fairways were brilliant & the layout is as always fantastic. Great course, we will definitely be back when it gets warmer.

Temp Green

Travelled 30minutes to play this “championship” course after seeing the reviews. Nothing on the website to say all temp greens and temp greens was terrible. Pace of play was awful, walked off on the 9th. Should be told before booking about temp greens, waste of a afternoon, and all the staff had to say was it’s still a round of golf
