Ruined by ignorant walkers

Once again a round ruined by ignorant dog walkers, standing right in the way , on purpose, just walking out as your taking your shot then stopping in middle of fairway, should be some code of conduct or signs , it’s getting ridiculous, that’s why I can’t recommend it, only worth what we paid , not any more and that’s even in summer !!!!

Course for Dog Walkers

Not the worst course in the world but the Dog walkers and people on the course was an absolute joke. People literally walking dog on the fairway as your about to tee off and kids shouting as your playing.

Midday 18 holes

Excellent course and despite terrible rain day before the greens were in great order. Love playing this course as challenging up hill greens really test you. Staff are excellent and great food and bar area also. Never pushed on pace of play by other golfers and everybody is polite that I have come across here.

Excellent but dangerous

Had a great day … but too many walkers to feel safe hitting driver some of the time. Also roads alongside several tee shots.
Need to be straight … my beginner partners lost a lot of balls.
Lovely layout though … condition is OK but could do with a couple more green keepers
Very quiet … lots more dog walkers than golfers.

old course in centre of Bournemouth

Lovely old course with a proud history

Now spoilt somewhat by the excessive number of dog walkers. half of whom seem not to be aware they are on a golf course. there are many paths crossing the course.

However we enjoyed the round and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. Very good value for money

Walkers everywhere

A lovely golf course, very accessible and one you can shoot a low score on. Unfortunately the round was delayed by walkers - the course is a public course so walkers are entitled to be around, fair enough, but they walk all over the fairways, across the greens, stand in landing areas for tee offs or second shorts.
There were two particular examples of ignorance which ruined the course for me; one bloke and his pushchair walked straight across the fairway without even looking as I am lining up for a shot. Another - a teenaged / early 20s social media addicted woman walked straight across a fairway with her headphones in on her phone without a care in the world.
Great course if you have all day to wait around for other people..! Wouldn’t recommend if you just want to play golf

Excellent test of golf

My sort of course, different level changes, sloping fairways at various points, hidden valleys and gulleys, all combine to make you think your way around. I'll enjoy it even more now that I know its peculiarities.

Midweek afternoon

Course was dead quiet so able to play at our own pace.
Tee boxes and greens in good nick but the fairways and bunkers are not in best of shape.
A touch overpriced for time of day / week compared to others in the locality.
Always a challenging course
