Not great

Fairly short course took over 5 hours to play on a saturday. The greens are not very good and the sand in the most bunkers is more like cat litter.

So joined this club via PlayMoreGolf golf after having been a member at wokefield before.
I personally like this course which is quite challenging , at the present time the greens need work on them and there are still two holes needing to be played off the mats which shouldn't really be the case by now, overall average in condition.

Breezy Round!

Course is in reasonable condition, greens not quite as good as they used to be, but good enough. As ever, a slow round! It seems that mid week afternoon rounds are slowest of the week!

Pleasantly Surprised

One always gets a bit snobby when you are invited to play on a council owned course. Downshire ticked a lot of boxes, staring with a very warm welcome for breakfast which was very good. Pleasant staff in the fairly well stocked pro-shopand finally a cheery welcome back with the usual golf club lunch fayre, which again was well cooked and reasonably priced.
Onto the course, always nice to see the greenkeeping staff working on the course. it is not an easy track with a fair amount of ditches, streams and lakes, worth doing your research before you play or having a decent GPS with you. You could be critical of the tee boxes that were a bit scruffy all the way round. Green were also a bit 'patchy' but given the dry weather most greens that I have played on recently could do with a good soaking. The course layout, although not that long there are some tricky holes with well placed bunkers to catch the unwary. These bunkers do have good, proper sand in them, still could not get out of them however! Also there is the water and ditches to be aware of.
The difficulty of the course was reflected in the score with nobody really taming the track.
Value for money it was great. Considering that it probably gets a lot of rounds played on it it does hold up better than expected.
Would I play it again - yes.

Good course at Downshire

Despite the weather having been wet for a number of days the course was in good condition. The greens are the weakest point but that is a relative situation as they used to be excellent, now they are not quite that good.

Two holes with mats to tee off from. The course could do with improvement but as a pay and play venue it's a good challenge.

good course

Enjoyed the round today. The course was driest I can remember and the greens were quick and tricky and took a long time to get used to! Very good value compared to comparable courses.
