Great course

Booked a last minute round here for a 2 ball. Got a great deal so wasn’t expecting it to be great but I was surprised how good it was. Lovely layout, challenging holes and great condition for the time of year.

Great Course

Has been quite a few years since I have played here, but was a good challenging course in great condition, particularly given the dry weather! Greens were rolling true and had a good level of complexity to them. Only slight negative was the distance between some of the greens to the next tee.

Value for money!!

Having not played the course for a few years I thought I would give it a try! Although the course could do with a little TLC in a few places namely around some of the bunkers, the greens were in too top condition and the round was definitely value for money and will certainly be playing again in the not to distant future!

Excellent days golf on well presented course

It rained (light drizzle) all day but this didn't detract from a great days golf. fortunately the course was quiet and so no hold ups at all. Course is challenging and has a wide contrast in hole layouts - very interesting to play. Generally the course in excellent condition although one or two green were a bit 'tired'. It is a hilly course so certainly felt it next day. Will definitely come back again. Great VFM

Elf casual round

Had been a member of this club for a few years however decided for a change this year for various reasons. Went back to Elfordleigh for a round and it was pleasant, although the greens are not in the best condition compared to other courses we have played and the bunker sand isn’t great. Other than that the course played well and is always picturesque on a nice day

Excellent for time of year

Went on a mild January’s afternoon and wasn’t disappointed. For the time of year, the course was in excellent condition with true greens. We played pick and place because inevitably you’ll get some horrible lies at any course this time of year but in general wonderfully kept in a lovely setting and really good value for money. Recommend to anyone in the area. Pro shop service excellent, food and service in bar acceptable

We will be back

Really enjoyed playing Elfordleigh for the first time.
It's hilly, narrow in places and has challenging sloping tiered greens.

Wet

Very wet, the greens were flooded but the rain was horrendous. Great course layout, let’s you open your shoulders, some tricky par 3’s. Good overall course to play.

Nice course in beautiful setting

Lovely location and very picturesque. Quite hilly so recommend a buggy plus quite tight in places so you need to be accurate off the tee.

Excellent value and food/drink was equally good value and quality. If you want a pleasant round in a lovely setting I recommend.
