What the club says: Hainault Golf Course actually consists of two 18 hole courses, both are spectacular.

The Upper Course

This course hugs the hillside closest to the country park. The course has tighter fairways and is more hilly than the lower course. Although it is shorter and has a par 70, the upper course is still a very good test and will punish the wayward golfer.

The Lower Course

This course hosted the 2003 Essex Amateur Championships final and was the first pay and play golf course to be awarded such a prestigious accolade. The course is a par 72 and is a very good test of the long hitter, rewarding accurate long tee shots, but punishing poor course strategy, beware not to be tempted to mimic Tiger!

No buggies

They should not be letting buggies out at the moment.There should also be a simple system regarding pin placement

Excellent Course

What a fantastic course, greens are in perfect condition. Although they are very busy all week they manage to stick to allocated tee times. They have very lovely staff working in the shop and are always available to helping any customer needs. Any issues that may occur on the course, the staff are very good when handling any situations that may happen on the course. For example people playing 5/6 balls.

Has the potential to be a great course, just needs looking after. Bunkers need sand, greens aren't in too bad condition (given thats its a municipal in Jan) but shame idiots in buggeys don't respect the course

I have been playing at Hainault Golf Club for over 20 years and I have to say the condition of the course is A1.
I would highly recommend a visit to this course it has obviously had lots of money spent on it over the last few years.

Great track spoilt by non golfing regular societies.

If you don’t mind being behind a society that has no idea of etiquette or the rules of golf crack on. 5 hour rounds behind 5/6 ball’s playing from 2 or 3 sets of clubs and they get away with it and are never challenged by the management. Most days around 10ish so stay away around this time or after????

Worth a visit

This venue has two courses and is very forgiving well worth a visit.
Monday and Wednesday you can get a buggy for £15 thats half price and on a Tuesday play both courses for around £20 .
Lower course is 6480 off the yellow tee and the upper cource is 5948.
The course has a cafe and is soon to open a smoke house also has a Italian resturant.

Very good condition

It's been about a year since I last played Hainault. It can get bone dry in summer and very muddy in winter, but it was in excellent condition on September 18th. We really enjoyed our game, and it's great value (especially for the over-60s).
