Matfen Hall Golf Club - Douglas Course
Played On 08/04/2018Matfen Day
Played the course a few times and have never been disappointed with which ever 2 of the 3 9s we're playing - This time we played the Standing Stone & Dewlaw.
From booking in until we left after the round & some food , we were treated very well by both club shop pros and the catering team and made very welcome, special shout out to Nicola in the club shop who was very helpful indeed.
Spent 30 mins at the driving range, although you have to drive to it, was not an issue, guy in the range shop was friendly and can't argue at 50 balls for £3.50. also has a great short game area, and no doubt one day I'll play the par 3 course.
Now to tee off - Course was in great nick, the days rain before certainly helped with the greens being very receptive. Just a note on the greens, they played pretty true although they had been hollowed/micro tined at some point that week before we played, but did not spoil the putting expericence. Course layout has been well thought out, with some bunkers in the wrong/right place!! Sand was good, not to fluffy... Quite asthetic expeically looking back toward the Hall.
Overall experience was fantastic and look forward to playing it again...

Windy, warm & Sunny, love the course changes and this is the 2nd time I've played it since. My golf partners first time, he loved the course but struggled on the day, which did not curb his impression of the course. Amenities are top notch and reasonably priced considering the high profile the course has achieved. Staff are all friendly and professional.

Weather was not perfect so expected puddles and soft slow greens... how wrong we were. Playing a 3 Ball at midday, millionaires golf.. where was everyone? They all missed a treat i tell ya. Great breakfast and tasty coffee, great warm up area. Every hole was a picture to play, manicured and open fairways, pretty neat rough and the surprise was the greens... not a grumble from my party, ran true considering all the rain there has been recently.. True gem of a course to play... and its mid-October
