What the club says: The course, which is kept in excellent condition and open all year round (weather permitting), has a well-deserved reputation for being suitable for all categories of golfers and 'The Common' as stated by Ken Brown, is one of the most friendly Golf Clubs in Hertfordshire. Hertfordshire County Scratch and Tigers matches are regularly played here as well as a full programme of Mens, Seniors, Ladies, Juniors and Mixed Competitions.

Harpenden Common golf course has eleven holes set on the Common and a further seven holes which were designed by Ken Brown in 1996. As you will see from the course planner, the first is a par 4. This runs past the clubhouse parallel to the 18th. As you move round the course each hole has its own character.

Flat parkland course, slow play

Mainly flat parkland course, first few holes very muddy even though not much recent rain. A few interesting holes but had the overriding feeling of back and forth. Some enormous greens and greens in very good condition. Very slow players. Fairways being spiked.

Good

Fairly open course with a nice variety of holes including some quite tough par 3's. Some long par 4's and some short ones.Bunkers good- what is it with eyebrows? Grren were quick and at times difficult to read so dont be surprised if your puts swings away from the hole when you not expecting it. Excellent clubhouse.

Course in good condition - easily walkable which allows for players of all ages and abilities. Front 9, more of a parkland set-up, with the majority of the back 9, more open with wider fairways and more bunkers.

Hertfordshire Gem

Playing off the yellows, qiute short but very tricky to start, tight fairways with lots of trees to worry about until the 12th when it opens up a lot. Greens were in excellent condition, fast but true. Good test for an average player, would certainly give it another go.

Cricket Lovely Cricket

This is the only golf course that I know of that have a cricket field in the middle of one of their fairways, the course was in reasonable condition for this time of year as we are now recovering from the extremely wet winter months and a very cold beginning of spring.

Friendly & enjoyable course

Members club that has reputation for being friendly. Course is very flat and easy to walk. Relatively short course but does challenge the better players. Long hitters are better off using a 3 wood in many cases. Bunkers are in great condition and the greens are quick. Not fully recovered from winter maintenance yet, but still better than many courses.

Good flat course. No long but quite narrow in places. Very good bunkers. Strange to have two consecutive par 3 's in the middle of the round. Finishes on a par 3 right in front of the club house for those who like applause or ribaldry. Definitely one to revisit.
