Lovely old golf course

Really enjoyed my days golf. A windy day which added to the challenge. Not a long course but plenty to keep you thinking. The course is tight in places but generally fair, the green are really good and very tricky, you have to know which part of the green you need to play to. Only minor complaint some of the tees could do with some TLC. Staff were great and the half way house was excellent.
Will definitely play it again.

Disappointing

I would like to say something positive about the course but really couldn't think of anything other than it wasn't busy.
I should have guessed given the confusing signage to the first tee, generally signage and directions were poor.
The course was more field with flags than golf course, most bunkers had GUR signs and looked shocking, the tees were the worst I've played on and the course layout is very poor not helped by the condition. Worst coarse I've ever played.
Definitely well over priced at £26, not a patch on others similarly priced.

Pleasantly surprising

Hadn't played the course for many years so I was pleasantly surprised by how much it had changed. Condition was go with the fairways quite green after the dry weather. The greens were excellent and held the ball well, the tees were quite good and no doubt will get better with future rain.
Course layout was better than I remembered but there are a couple of holes that could be better.
All in all a very pleasant afternoons golf. Worth a visit.

Great layout

With the current hot weather all the courses are struggling but this was definitely more than made up for by the course layout. Clearly a little gem waiting to be discovered. Lots of work going on to improve the course which looks as though it will give further improve to the course. I will definitely be back in a couple of months when the changes settle in.
Really good course.

What could be.

Lovely looking golf course with many well laid out holes. The condition of the greens generally good if a bit slow. Fairways varied, some very good but a few a bit sparse, not what I would have expected. The rough was quite penal but more frustratingly lots of clover.
Some of the walks between holes are very long, you definitely need a buggy.
I really liked the course but the experience could have been so much better.

Hadn't played at Rye Hill for many years and was really surprised by it's progress.

Really enjoyed my round of golf, the course layout was good with lots of really good holes. The condition was generally good and the greens were excellent and a good pace. The staff were really good and the course was great value and very enjoyable. I'll definitely be back.
