Rookery Park Golf Club - Main Course

Great course greens really good just a few too many leaves slowing play up with ball search Great value though!!

Course was in great condition, very quiet Sunday afternoon, fantastic day.

Lots of dog leg holes with well placed bunkers. Course was in great condition with greens rolling true. Would definitely recommend

Paths were dangerous and covered in mud....
9th and 11th holes closed
Fairways poor on the 1st 9 holes serious lack of grass more curnned up sticky mud than anything...
Avoid this course in winter months or after heavy rain it's not with the money

Played rookery many times before and enjoyed it but today has really spoiled our perception of the club. As a 2 ball we teed off behind a 4 ball who the pro shop informed us had already teed off 10 minutes late. By hole 3 we had caught up with them but they would not let us play through. On hole 7 and 8 one of their party hit the green with his putter in anger, he also threw his club at one point. By hole 7 it became very frustrating as the 2 ball behind us began playing their shot to the green before we had even putted. Being held up by the group in front and rushed by the 2 behind. By hole 10 we decided to let the 2 ball play through so we could at least not have people rushing us.
The gentleman in the 2 ball acted like he had no idea he was playing up behind us quickly but then made it clear he knew the 4 ball were not letting us play through and informed us they had a pro playing in the group, as well as a green keeper. How a pro and green keeper allowed the angry man to hit the the greens with his putter is beyond me.
At hole 14 we noticed a snapped club in a bin which I assume was left by the angry golfer.

Greens weren't great and the green of hole 9 was 50% mud and should have had an emergency green in play.

So disappointed with today's experience as previously the rookery has being great to play at, but having 2 groups who clearly knew each other and were happy to ignore simple golfers equitette due to their own perceived importance was an insult and a waste of £60 of our money.

Such a shame..

Thoroughly enjoyed this course, it was a challenge for sure, but so many interesting holes made it a memorable experience.

Holes are long, with many doglegs, but it's forgiving enough the tee to make it playable - after a very testing front 9, the back 9 is a welcome contrast that will give you a feel good as you finish.

Can't wait to play here again.

Excellent course and value for money great on a Sunday afternoon

Having paid £26 for a round we expected it to be a full round, we start at 4:44 and by 8:15 we’d only completed 14 holes. Waiting for 15 on 2 tee boxes, 6 people queuing up on one in 2 groups because of slow play wasn’t what I expected. Everything else was good.

Played this course a couple of times recently and very impressed.

Lovely little putting and chipping area by the clubhouse to get some practice in. Lady in the pro shop was nice enough to let me go out a touch early with nobody infront of me for a few holes.

Course is in fabulous condition. Looks well looked after. Course is challenging but there are still chances to make a score. Big fan of holes 2, 6, 8 and 9 on the way out and then 10, 12, 13 and 16 on the way in.

If I did have one criticism it would be the layout over the final four holes. After plenty of different doglegs and challenges before, 15-18 feel very samey which is a bit of an underwhelming way to finish. Oh and the par 3 11th is too long if you get the wind in your face, I hit 3W and was still short!

Minor nitpicks though. Great course and will be back soon.

A simple but enjoyable golf course which has been excellently maintained. For me slightly overpriced but would happily play here again

We booked a twilight round of golf, and found the experience to be absolutely value for money.

Course was in good condition, greens and tee boxes very good for this time of year (clearly well watered).

Only grumble was pace of play. We got stuck behind the Thursday foursomes league who, despite only playing alternate shot, still managed to take 2hrs 25 to play 9 holes.

We had to chase down darkness and somewhat rush to make sure we made it round in time, but played the last three holes at great pace once they had (thankfully) shaken hands and finished their match on the 15th hole.

Will come back again, just not on a Thursday evening!

Third time playing this course, Very nice course to play.

Great test of golf in great condition for April. Go & try it, you won’t be disappointed.

Very nice course, I find it slightly more forgiving then others. Everyone I have spoke to there has always been friendly.
