First Time Playing

Course waterlogged

The course would be excellent on a good day but after weeks of rain the fairways are now saturated, a few of the holes with slopes are frankly dangerous

Definitely play but wait until winter passes

Friendly staff, very swanky clubhouse but expensive food

Great Opportunity wasted

So I was looking forward to playing Darley after reading some good reviews. The starter was very welcoming and friendly, took time to show us the first few holes.

The course must have been good in its day but I'm sorry to say that it has let itself go. The fairways did not appear to have been cut, daisies everywhere, the tee boxes were in poor condition, no rakes in the bunkers was inexcusable, sandpits!!

The greens were in good condition if lacking some water. I don't expect Augusta for £30 a round but I have played better courses for less. Maybe playing on the Troon brand too much and forgetting about quality. Sorry won't be back
