Well worth a visit

It was my 2nd time playing here and this time I bought 3 mates who hadn’t played the course before. Everyone enjoyed it and the general opinion was that each hole is different, from blind tee shots, water hazards and long par 3’s. It had everything. It is a tough carry though!, I was knackered.

Regrettably disappointing

I want to be on here telling you how great this course is but unfortunately my experience wasn’t great. We arrived early for our 10.35 tee time to find a sign on the 1st tee saying course closed. It was wet and that’s not my gripe. When it’s a late tee time like mine was there is no excuse not to update your website with the course status. My friend and I travelled 35 miles and payed £35 to find only back 9 open. The lad in the pro shop wasn’t particularly helpful when we discussed a possible refund. We were told we could play two loops of the back 9. However when we returned the 10th there was 12 people waiting to tee off and it would’ve obviously been dreadfully slow so we packed up had a pint and went home. I will say the bar was very nice with lots of lovely looking food options. Also the 9 holes we did play were challenging and well set up. The greens were among the best I’ve putted on even despite the damp weather so fair play to the greens keepers for that. I will definitely return but would suggest ringing ahead for the course status 1st if it’s been wet.

Disappointing

I’ve played Rye hill before and was excited to be returning however I must say I wasn’t as happy this time as last. First of all the tee boxes were pretty shabby( not the end of the world) secondly the fairways were patchy and poorly cut, again I could see past that but the greens were most disappointing, worm holes everywhere made it practically impossible to hit a putt without having to move 10 mounds of mud from the worms 1st. I’d suggest sending someone out early and scraping these off the greens. Pace of play was excellent because it was pretty quiet. Staff were friendly In the bar afterwards.

Nice course

Always enjoy this course, they are improving the course with new water features and tee boxes etc so there is a bit of work going on. We played off winter mats which does make the course a bit easier and there were a few temporary greens in play.but as far as temps go they were some of the better ones I’ve seen. Overall an enjoyable last round before lockdown begins.

Great course

Greens were as good as I’ve ever seen them, it was club championship day so I imagine they were as quick as they could cut them so made putting interesting. We teed off in the afternoon so only paid £22.50 which is a bargain for this course.

Lovely course, great views and friendly locals

I like this course because it challenges you on every hole, it’s not a course where the you can bludgeon it off the tee with driver every hole. You need to think your way round. It tests all aspects of your game including your fitness because there are some challenging climbs up the hills. Also the staff and locals always make you feel welcome. Give it a try, it’s worth it.

Lovely course, bargain price

Just played for the 1st time, very impressed with the course, greens were quick and rolled true. Shame about the vandalism on a few greens but you can’t blame the course for that. Very busy so pace was slow( 2 ball took 3 hours 45 mins) but I didn’t mind as I played well. My only gripe was with the frosty reception I received in the club shop. Our tee time was put back because I booked through GolfNow and I was told I should’ve rang the course to confirm the booking despite receiving a confirmation email. The way it was said didn’t give a great first impression, fortunately the course did so I left happy.
