Closing in on summer tees
Went at 7 am on a Sunday first out, course looked lovely bit wet in places but that’s to be expected with the amount of rain we’ve had recently. Good round on a nice course. Can’t wait for it to be dry enough for summer tees
Average course
I've played here a few times now but they seriously need to sort or do some drainage as the course becomes very wet under foot when it's been raining. In some parts the grass is so wet underneath I was worried a sink hole might open up.
I would only play this course in the summer now I wouldn't waste my money if it's been raining before I play here.
Fantastic golf course, greens a little bobbly
A great day out every time. Well laid out course very friendly members and club pro. A good challenge for the relatively new golfer. Even met some members playing with their dogs. If I could leave a 4. 5 star review I would, the greens were a little rough and bobbly but that was my only slight gripe. Well worth the green fee especially when considering other courses in the area that are more expensive but not as well laid out or presented for the most part.
Good time on and off the course
Course in good condition for this time of the year and the green's still have a good pace to them. Our golf balls were trying to hide under the leaves but it didn't spoil our day. We had some of the best kept beer we have had in a long while and the food is very good. We will be back.
First time playing
Disappointed with state of fairways and greens, facility’s good, and staff were great, but didn’t enjoy the golfing, even on the fairways it felt like you were shooting out the rough, dispute this we enjoyed the day, but more down to the staff and facilities than the actual golf
Challenging Course
Absolutely lovely course with plenty of challenging holes so you need to manage your round. Pity about the greens as they were being dressed at the time. Apart from this we enjoyed the course and the warm welcome from the golf shop. Looks like the facilities were good but did not take advantage of these. Definitely will book again.
Worth a visit
Nice course you have to think about course management on most holes to have a good round.
Farthingstone
Great course in beautiful countryside
Greens were not at their best this time
Great Course
I enjoy the round. The course has some challenging holes and is generally in good condition. The pro shop is well equipped and the staff are very friendly
Great condition but slow play
The course was in great condition and playing really well. Unfortunately there was 2 four balls that were extremely slow in front of us and seemed to take forever, we could not wait and had to skip 3 holes just to finish within 5 hours, not what you expect when you come to a course that offers visitor play. The staff in the office didn’t seem bothered by this also and offered no way of refunding or exchange, even to go back out on the front nine would have been better than nothing.
Very good course conditions place of play was slightly slow but overall a good experience
Nice layout, bar staff lovely, course and fella in pro shop not so lovely
Great layout. However greens are woeful. For £25 you can get so much better for your money locally.
Bar staff fantastic and so happy to help. However the fella in the pro shop must of had a rough night. Rude , abrupt, bit of a power trip if you ask me . Will not be returning and I wonder if this place will still be ope. In 2-3 years time. Needs investment and fast
Fabulous course, badly managed
Possibly the best laid out course in the area but the condition and presentation of the course is very very poor. Tee’s poor, fairways poor and the greens are horrendous.
Sad part is the course itself is superbly laid out. It’s pretty clear they could do with investment and that is evident as soon as you leave the main road. The whole thing looks tired. I’ve played there relatively often over the years and always return in the hope that something has improved but sadly it still appears in decline. Staff are friendly and the cost of a round is very reasonable and it’s a very pleasant place to play but don’t get your expectations too high.
