Don't play this course
Fingle Glen is the worst maintained course my wife and I have ever played on. The greens are in a terrible condition. They had been hollow tined recently but that wasn't the problem. They are diseased which has left bare patches. The bunkers have not been maintained. The sand is compacted. The fairways were covered in clumps of wet mown grass. The layout of the course is very odd and lacking in signage. The buggy we hired had not been cleaned since the previous players.Reviewer Rating

DO NOT PLAY HERE. Temporary greens in August, other greens undergoing maintenance. Staff did not tell us this, just happily took our money and let us discover for ourselves. Very slow and stubborn members playing in front of us. Two three balls and us (two ball) stuck on 2 holes the whole way round with an entirely empty other 16 holes!

Fair course - hopeless organising
Visited this course with a large society, the first visit that this society had done to this venue. Over the years, I have organised over 300 society days and this one proved to the most disorganised of the lot, from stopping breakfasts @ 10.30, despite advising them that many members would require it, to changing the "you can have a choice of menu on the day" to a choice of one, - OK thankfully, that meal was quite good.Thankfully, the weather was good, the undulating quirky course was very playable and overall is enjoyable to play, but, if you want anything other than a game of golf, forget, go down the local pub / restaurant where you will be more welcomed. A nice course, but with the appeal of a holiday camp. I even sent a letter to "the owners" - nothing critical, but with honest views, but three months later, I still have not received the courtesy of a reply.

Played here for the first time as a 3 balls with fellow golfers who have played before. The course was wet under foot due to heavy rain so we were on a shortened course. Signage was quite poor in places, first 13 holes were on blue tees but 14th was yellow/red/white on a mat with a sign pointing to nowhere. Another tee(7th) had tee markers in an elevated tee, walked over to it to then be waved over by group in front of us who pointed to another 'shared' tee where we should be teeing off. So very confusing. To top it ell I think we were overcharged for green fees which we questioned before paying, though assured correct price... Checking on their website when I got home I think we were overcharged by a couple of pounds... Not a huge amount of money but having queried in the pro shop I would have thought it would have been checked before we paid. Will probably play again when the weather is better as unfair to rate the course in wintery conditions.... But signage and green fee pricing are pretty much thingsthat should have been under better control, so feeling somewhat underwhelmed from a customer service standpoint. On a positive note coffee andd bacon sandwiches in restaurant were nice.

Disappointing......Had a nice day for it and was looking forward to this course having herd decent things, have to say though it was disappointing. Was looking for a tee time around 11:30 and got on at 11:24 at short notice, result!...... To be honest should have given me cause for concern, course was near empty on a beautiful September Saturday on Ryder cup weekend, all other courses within 25 miles were pretty chocca.I think it was quiet because it isn't that great, greens on front nine were full of sand and holes, fairways and tees covered in missing divot marks, and generally the course is a bit repetitive and boring.Seriously hilly, take a cart, we didn't and I had cramp on the last two holes!

This course was not good value for the money...poor, bumpy greens made putting even the "gimmeeputts" very dicey. We should have been informed as to the condition of the greens as they had not recovered from the hollowtining and verticutting.

Nice variety of holes... This is a Fairly hilly course that will challenge the long hitters if your not fairly accurate... Unfortunately this poor little course suffers the abuse of non handicapped/non members chopping & churning up the fairways, both with buggy's & their lack of golfing etiquette!

Never played here before but knocked it round latish afternoon on a Saturday. Short course but played in high winds which made it plenty tricky enough. Had far more variety and changes of elevation that I was expecting and it's an interesting track. Greens were decent whilst not being that receptive. Pace of play was unfortunately painful on the day I played as think I was behind a smallish society/group who weren't the quickest, but that's luck of the draw. Nice welcome in the hotel/pro shop and also got a good deal paying only £15 to go round which was a pleasant surprise.
