This review is directed at Golf Now and NOT Torrence Park. When I arrived at the clubhouse I was informed by the receptionist that Torrence Park was now a 9 hole course and not an 18 holes course as advertised by Golf Now and subsequently charged for by Golf Now, despite the course informing them of its changed status on numerous occasions by email.

I was extremely disappointed to find out on my arrival that the proprietors of Torrence Park had undertaken to sell a substantial section of the site for development, which meant that many of the feature holes that I had enjoyed playing previously were now gone, never to return.

Had I known this in advance of booking my tee off time through Golf Now I would definitely have selected a different course to play. I can state categorically that I will never play Torrence Park again.

While I only have the word of the receptionist at Torrence Park to rely on that the Club informed Golf Now of its changed status by email, it has nevertheless made me very reticent of using this website in future as they clearly do not update their customer facing information to provide a reliable and informed choice to customers at the point of booking tee off times.

Very disappointed with Golf Now. Must do better if you wish to retain this customers patronage.

Front 9 fairways long and uncut and indistinguishable from first cut and rough. 16 out of 18 temporary greens. 2 greens in play dressed with sand but not dragged so very difficult to judge the pace of the ball on these greens. Pace of play extremely slow with a 4 ball group of members refusing to let anyone play through them from the first tee to the last despite them playing very slowly on the front 9 in addition to them loosing and looking for balls. Very frustrating, which resulted in me lodging a complaint at the pro shop when I eventually finished. I wouldn't recommend this course to anyone. The members that I played behind were very poor ambassadors for their club, for the sport in general, and were generally very unwelcoming. My advice to anyone thinking of playing this course would be to save your money and your sanity and book any course other than Gloucester.
