Macdonald Linden Hall Golf & Country Club

Course was in very bad condition. I don't think it should have been open at all. Our group spent more time looking for balls in and around the fairways than spent playing. The ground was so waterlogged that balls hit down the middle of the holes were disappearing, plugged into the ground.
The course layout looks promising aside from there being next to no signage, we may try again in the summer.
Clubhouse, shop and staff were great.

Very poor condition despite being assured before booking that the course is in great condition.
Nothing can be done about the amount of rain we are getting but we had travelled 1 1/2 hours on the assumption that the conditions were good and not all winter tees in the fairways and 4 temporary greens in the 13 holes we played.

Some nice par 3’s may try again in summer

Whilst we enjoyed the course (apart from the boggy mud in places) but £40 each for a round is overly expensive. Staff were great in the shop and the halfway house but it is difficult to see where the next tee direction is and we have actually played the course before and first time got very confused. A member of staff, on that occasion, helped us more than once!

A truly scenic course in pristine condition. The fairways and greens were in immaculate condition. First time here but can't wait to return.

Fantastic lay out and course in good condition. Amenities are very good and the pub is lovely.

The course was in very good condition, greens true.
Real value for money.

Turned up at 3:30, and nobody was at the clubhouse, so played the course for the first time blind with no scorecard and not able to hire a buggy. It’s a good 8000 yard course as the walks between holes is too far. saying that I would definitely pay the course again as it was good value for money and some cracking holes.

Late booking for a fourball but no issues, first tee just a short walk from shop and straight off.
Course in very good condition and all four of us enjoyed the course.

Used to play this course a few times a year. Great layout with great holes. However, drastically gone downhill. Hardly any sand in bunkers, tee boxes extremely scruffy and worst of all massive drainage issues across whole of course. You’d lose a ball in the fairway due to it being plugged. Unfortunately avoid.

Played here in Feb 2023, cannot fault the layout of the holes, with some stunning par 3s and a good challenge all round. Greens were well maintained but fairways and paths between holes were often in standing water. Some paths between were almost impossible to get through, 2 inches of slippy mud in places.

We followed a very slow 3 ball and had to pick up huge divots every hole after them too. That being said the price I payed was worth the course

Massive improvement since I was play years ago, great fairways and greens!

Love playing here. Winter conditions now so quite muddy fairways but greens tip top as usual.There was no wind so that helped. Its a very challenging course but will worth the money. Beautiful setting.

The course was a bit wet on most holes. There are some lovely holes but long grass on wet fairways made for a poor day.

The bunkers are unplayable unless your happy to scuff and scratch your clubs, more stones than sand in most.

Really nice layout with some fantastic holes just a pity it's not well cared for. Woukd still give it another go in dryer conditions.

Linden Hall is one of my favourite courses in the area, each hole offering a different challenge and all very pleasing on the eye. Pace of play is a bit on an issue, with societies or guest staying over. Having said that we were in a two ball, so we were always going to be held up. Definitely play again though and great value for a terrific course.

Very enjoyable course with some great holes. Considering the dry weather the conditions were excellent.

Played here a few times these past weeks. The course is currently in great condition. Greens excellent. I was a member here a few years back so know the course very well, but if you've never played here, you will enjoy it. Great selection of par 3's, some challenging 4's and 5's. If you hit on some nice weather like we did it's a lovely track.
