Stockley Park Golf
Played On 09/01/2019Waste of time and money
If this was someone’s first experience of golf, they’d sell their clubs, pack it all in and never play ever again. This was by far and away the worst 18 hole course I’ve ever had the misfortune to play. From the very first hole, which in the middle of summer was playing off winter mats, Our group had a pretty miserable 4 hours. When you book a specific time, and are told by the person on reception you’re free to go, you expect to tee off at that time. However, when we got to the first, we had a good half hour wait whilst groups in front tee’d off. Either people had just turned up and walked on whenever they felt, or the booking system had gone down the pan.
It never got better. Constantly waiting on the tee every hole, and that was far from the worst. The condition of the course was pathetic. I’ve never seen so much litter, or lack of care taken by greenkeepers to take pride in their work. Half the greens had been spikes, rendering them beyond useless, and the others it was a complete guess as to how they would play. The fairways were barely noticeable from the rough, and the bunkers had more rocks and stones in them than a quarry.
This is one course that would be best served as a local housing estate. If it wasn’t for the fact that the round we endured was the last round before one of our group headed back to Aus, I think we’d have walked off and demanded a refund.
