Good all rounder

Lovely course this. Caters for all abilities. Some challenging holes out there. Some of the greens still need some upkeep after the winter months, but all in all it is very well kept.

Played here a few times now and always enjoy it. Shot 87 after a 3 month break from golf off a 14hc, lower scores are easily possible.

Definitely one to play a few times a year.

Great course, nice layout and tourist friendly

We loved everything about the course and pace of play. Had some challenges finding the ball in rough with all the daisies this time of year but the condition of the course was excellent - heading back with friends for a 4 ball in 2 weeks!

very good course

considering the amount of rain we have had recently the course was in very good condition, the greens had been recently tyned but did not interfere with putting, just one small muddy patch at the very bottom of the course apart from that it was a pleasure to play

Up with the best in the area

Once the investment kicks in this will be a great course to play
We played it when the greens had been dressed so give it 2 weeks and the course will be up with the best in the area
The course layout suits the big hitters aiming for the eagle putts but also takes no prisoners if off line
All in all excellent value for money and will look forward to visiting again

Improvements being made

I can see lots of improvements being made around the course and I'm sure in a few years this will be a good golf course, Tee boxes in need of some tlc and some greens do aswell but the fairways are just lush and so nice to play off

Getting better again

This course was terrible last year but the new owners seem to be getting it back to what it was in previous years and are doing work all around the course which is good to see. Still shorter than it was but hopefully they might alter it slightly and maybe have another par 5. Greens were good for this time of the year so it was a bargain round really

Nice easy good value golf

It’s not the hardest course in the area, but it’s open, it’s cheap at £22 in the week, you can always get on and now they are cutting the fairways and greens it’s very playable. The staff are always happy to see you and lately we’ve see some work happening around the first tee with a nice bridge over the pond and some drainage being added. A couple of the SI’s are a bit strange but every course has that. For me the hardest hole is 12, best holes are 11, 14 and 18. As it’s short and only a par 69 (course rating 112) it won’t challenge the better golfers but for a day of decent golf with a lovely clubhouse for food and drinks afterwards, it’s got to be on the list.

Ok for winter at least it’s all open

Its a very easy course with many scoreable holes but when other courses are on temps and mats in winter this course at least allows you to tee off grass and hit actual greens. Yes it’s a bit untidy and needs some TLC and maintenance but it’s fully open, reasonably priced, pleasant staff and you can get on easily. Don’t go thinking it’s Augusta as it’s nowhere near but go to keep your game going in winter and it’s decent. With one par 5 and around 4 really interesting holes it will keep you interested but it’s not a wow course for me, but in winter I’ll go every week to get a knock.

Owston Hall Golf Course

Lovely well maintained course. One of the best courses I have played in the winter. The ground was frozen along with the water hazards, so the ball traveled further and occasionally bounce off in an odd direction

Use this course on the hot deals.

Defiantly the best price ever for a £8-£12 18 hole course. Really good and every-time I go it seems to be improving! The bunkers have gone from a 3/10 to a 7/10. It used to be the stoney gravelly bunker but now it’s proper sand.

Could be better

I played today and the staff were nice and friendly. I was stuck behind two 2 balls and the first pair were painfully slow and didn't let anyone through.

Pros:
Fairways were in very good order
Fairways were very tight and a challenge to find
Bunkers were full of nice fluffy sand
Friendly staff
Cheap enough at £16 for single player

Cons:
Greens looked liked they had taken a beating - people who play here don't seem to know how to repair their divots!
Bunkers were not raked by players who had been in them
Bunkers had grass and weeds growing in them
There is plenty of spare space so I don't understand why the greens and tee boxes are on top of each other on many of the holes

Challenging back 9

First time playing after about 8 years have to say the course was in really nice condition the fairways were impressive and the greens were mid to fast and really we managed, for the price I would definitely recommend you give this course a go, front 9 were steady and I shot to my handicap but the back 9 requires your A game and me and my son thoroughly enjoyed playing. We will be back to crack that back 9. I’d give it a 7.5/10 as the tee boxes need some love
