ALL YEAR COURSE - for all levels

Really like this course. We've played it a few times. It stands up to the weather well. We've had a lot of rain this year and the course is in good condition. Staff are really good & they are making improvements to the course now, ready for the summer. £40 is a fair price to play this course, sometimes they raise this up and we don't tend to play it, when the cost is higher. Recommended to play at this price.

ALL YEAR COURSE - for all levels

Have played this course a few times and it always looks in good condition. Buggy track all the way around, which helps with my older friend, who needs a buggy. The greens were in good condition and the fairways were also generally decent. It can be a bit expensive. During the Covid Lockdown period they did increase their costs more than most other clubs, which left a bit of a sour taste but the prices have now come down to a more reasonable level.
Overall it's a good course, well laid out and quite challenging. Recommened

REAT ALL YEAR COURSE

The course was a bit boggy in parts but they do an amazing job to keep golf going throughout the year. The greens were in good condition, considering the time of year. Fairways a bit boggy but still in decent condition. Quite a few bunkers GUR, although it would have been hard to play out of them anyway, with the weather.
Overall it's a great course to play throughout the winter, staff are excellent and because of the layout you can have a buggy all year around, which helps with my older playing friend

Course looking really good

The fairways and greens are looking really good. For a public course this is in great condition. When it’s windy that offers a lot more of a challenging course but even without that there’s plenty of bunkers and water to make you think about your shots.The staff are excellent, really welcoming. The bar area could do with a bit of a re-fresh & they need to increase the choice of food available but maybe that will come as we come out of Covid restrictions.

Great course lots of Hills

Love this course. The layout is excellent, some really good elevated tees & some challenging holes. Had a great day, the course is in excellent condition and i'd recommend it to anyone. The only negative is the cost is a bit more than a few others of similar quality, at £60 a round

Great course

Beautiful setting. Great layout. Challenging, especially in the rough, which in some cases is close to the fairways. At £45 it's about £10 to £15 more than other similar courses we play at but we love the course so don't mind the bit extra

Good condition but needs work

Enjoyed the course, the greens were in really good condition. However The semi rough Needs cutting back. Understand if the rough Is king grass but anywhere off the fairway and you can lose your ball. You can hit a good shot and have to drop a shot. We list a few balls between us playing & only one or two were down to bad shots. Just cut that back and it would really improve the course. Other than that we had a good day & would recommend it

GOOD COURSE - DISSAPOINTED BY BUGGY HIRE

We had an early tee off of 7 am the employee wouldn't allow a buggy out for my friend, due to the frost. Whilst i understand and always want to protect the course., the frost / melting frost was not going to damage the course (from a buggy) if kept off the fairways and around the greens. My friend is in his 60's and needs a buggy for medical reasons, as walking 18 holes is very difficult for him. We felt they could have allowed him a buggy if he stayed off the fairways & around the green. Because of the layout of the course the 9th hole doesn't bring you back to the clubhouse, so once you're out on the course you can't just nip back and pick up the buggy half way through the round. So my friend played but it ruined it for him. Course ran well & it's always a good challenging course to play

Great course - Greens need a bit of work

We've just started playing this course and are really enjoying it. Has some good challenges (Hole 8 is very intimidating) which are enjoyable challenges. The greens are currently letting it down a bit, just need some work but didn't spoil our day

GREAT COURSE - GREENS NEEDS SOME WORK

Love playing this course. The staff are excellent and the course is well laid our and a good challenge. Would have given this 5 stars, excellent if the greens were better. They weren't in bad condition but considering they hadn't been played on for 3 months, we thought they might be a bit better. Overall we really like playing Devere. It's a bit more expensive than other similar courses but we'll definitely be back to play again

Great Winter course

Southern Valley, is a pretty straight forward course to navigate. Links style, sitting close to the River. However if it's windy it can turn it into a bit more of a challenge. For the winter months this is one of the best courses around, as it drains well & they're able to stay open, when others have to shut.

Good course great setting

Had a great day at De Vere. Staff were excellent (especially the lady in the club shop).
Course was well laid out with some challenges for all abilities and also some holes you can really get hold of .greens we’re a bit slow but in decent condition.
Overall the course and golf were great.
Only downside was the amenities after. I’m surprised so many clubs have not organised a way to get simple food available for their customers & De Vere is one of those. With so many golfers on the course they are missing out so much.

Good Links style course

Quite a short course but when the wind picks up it can become quite challenging. Great views and a shame that it's going to be knocked down for the new Thames Bridge. Would recommend this to fans of Links courses, as it has that feel about it, being open and exposed a bit to the conditions. Course in great condition. Staff friendly, decent amenities. Offers a different challenge for those who like to play different style courses

GREAT LINKS STYLE COURSE

Weather was perfect which then makes this course a bit more forgiving (when it's windy it becomes a different course all together). Course was in great condition. Staff really friendly. Such a shame that it's time might be limited, due to road and tunnel building. Course will be sorely missed.

Good challenging course

Great layout. Each hole offers a different challenge. Picturesque. Few tight tree lined holes.
And a good breakfast.
Can’t wait to play it again & especially want to play it in the summer
