Surrey National Golf Club

Superb condition,greens spiked but run true would definitely play again

Course playing well despite recent bad weather. Greens rolling excellently and no sign of temporary tees.

I have played Surrey National many times over the years and I still enjoy playing it now. The course itself is in fantastic condition considering the weather we have had recently. All the playing surfaces were in great nick and the greens were true. I can see that there are improvements taking place around certain areas of the course which I'm sure will make it even better. I'll definitely be coming back again.

I've played here many times and for mid November the course is in decent condition. Better than Westerham in the winter and probably the same as Woldingham. Not bad value for money. Only thing I dislike about the course is most holes are on a gradient so playing balls above or below feet on most shots which can be challenging.

I’ve played here quite a few times and it’s genuinely one of my favourite Surrey. Tracks The last sunny weekend of the year when every golfer in the Uk was trying to squeeze in their last round of the year! But to this point. It took forever!!! Waiting up 20 mins on some tee boxes with 2 to 3 groups waiting. Think we played 5hrs 20. And we normally around there in a lot less time. I don’t mind slow play but as long as you’re moving…. We just weren’t. And we pretty much Finished in the dark. Think they perhaps had too many people on the course this day with not enough spacing of tee times? The rough wasn’t too bad but think people still struggled to find balls which doesn’t help pace. It’s tough because daylight is less and loads of people want to play, but think if you want to keep people coming back, rather have 1 less tee time per hour out or more Marshall’s?

Level tee boxes, interesting layout, challenging greens and a good challenge of the whites. Fairways not in great nick, often muddy, and uncut.
Waiting at every tee, and at the turn nearly 12 minutes on a single tee box. 5hr 20mins for a round of golf is just not enjoyable. A small society ahead of us seemed to completely derail the proceedings, and no sign of a Marshall.
Unlike other reviews we didn’t struggle to find out way to the next tee, but that was a double edged sword… just increased our standing about time!
I would come back for the great warm up facilities and general layout, but the pace meant I’ll likely avoid in future unless it’s a very early tee time

I have played Surrey National a number of times in the past and have mixed feelings about the course. The layout is good and there are a number of really interesting holes. It can be challenging but rewarding to play. The conditions yesterday really let the course down though. We played on a Sunday morning and found the greens bobbling all over the place, the fairways frankly poor and a general feeling that the course needs a bit more maintenance than it appears to be getting. The first cut rough in particular was just utterly frustrating in its length and ability to swallow balls. By all means punish an errant tee shot that is way off line, but when your shots are hitting fairways, running off into the fringe and the first cut just sends your ball to another dimension it is beyond penal. A course can be tough but it must be fair to be enjoyable.

On the positive side, the tee boxes were in good nick and also flat (how do so many course fail to achieve that?!), and the staff were very pleasant.

I think the overall experience belies this course's status as a bit of a cash cow for the operators. They stack the tee times, pace of play can be poor (although to be fair there was a marshal out on the day we played) and the price charged is on the steep side for conditions as poor as we had yesterday. Surrey National jacked their prices up hugely during the COVID-19 surge of golfers and showed that profit came first. Yesterday's round just felt like poor value for money and an extension of that money comes first mentality.

Used most clubs in my back with a great mix of holes and hazards. Greens were true and course was well maintained. Only downside was that we had planned for food and drinks after but hadn’t been told the clubhouse was inaccessible to us after the round due to a private function (who were heckling as shots were being played on the 18th)

A truly great golf course.

Immaculately kept and beautiful on a sunny autumn day.

Will certainly be coming back to play soon.

Course was in super condition. Fairways perhaps a little long but the greens were superb - receptive and true running.

Layout of the course is good with some interesting and challenging holes, notably the Par 3 4th, Par 5 6th and Par 3 13th which is a lovely tee shot over the valley..

Only slight disappointment was a relatively slow pace of play, even at 0720 in the morning. But this was a minor irritation - nothing more.

Overall, a good, challenging course in fantastic condition. Well worth a visit.

This is a nice course with well designed holes. That said, they need more signage at each hole to indicate the hole number and if possible layout. We played on a changeable showery and sometimes windy day and thus did not appreciate the fourball in front not letting our two ball through. Thus 'pace of play' was just marked as average. A nicely designed course though and one we would play again..

Greens where inconsistent and layout not ideal with long walks between holes. Course lenders itself to very slow play. 4.5 hours to complete 16 holes.

Course in great condition considering dry spell over the past few months. Lots of work being done to the fairways which have suffered. Greens excellent and welcome by staff all good.

The golf course and clubhouse has a very pleasant atmosphere. The couse is a interesting challenge and in good condition considering the dry summer.

Pace of play was shocking. Nearly 6 hours for 18 holes. Greens in great condition but fairways were awful. Not cut, couldn’t not tell difference between fairway and first cut. Had heard a lot about this course but was bitterly disappointed

Course was very scruffy, fairways are a long, patchy mess. Greens were the only saving grace. No signage around the course to find the next tee or maps of the holes on each tee and with so many blind tee shots it's a guessing game. The 'cart path' was a treacherous mess of stones and debris, I wouldn't be surprised if someone has injured themselves going round the course. Fairways slope off onto other fairways with no rough to hold up the ball, meaning players are constantly crossing over one another to play their second shots. Overall I would avoid for the price they're asking, there are many more courses in Surrey that are the same price and are infinitely better in condition and layout.
