Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

Enjoyed Emerald on first day, very challenging course. Sapphire on second day, shorter, tighter, greens a bit patchy in places, but a real test, and not a long-hitters paradise

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

Not my favourite course ever, but not the worst.

Very hilly so if you dont have the legs you used to a buggy would be advised.

Nice mixture of holes.

I only played this course as I was staying in the area and to be fair if I was local again I would pay them a second visit.

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

Beautiful course but definitely not one for the faint hearted! Probably the hardest course I've played to date, I had a bad day on course anyway, but the wind today really made the course play 30-40yds longer per hole. That said, course was in great condition, even though they watered the 10th green right after we'd tee'd off.

Not one for high handicappers, our four ball was made up of 2 off 19, 1 off 24, and 1 off 26. 8 over won the day!

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

two great golf courses both vey different in layout.
the sapphire course is the shorter of the two but is well protected with clever hazard placement and vert tricky undulating greens. Just hitting the green is not good enough round here you need to be accurate. the emerasld is a bit more open but as the name suggests it is very hilly so would recommend a buggy.

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

Excellent venue. Got a very good deal for B & B and 2 rounds including free buggy.
Emerald course beautifully presented, greens very receptive. Lots of mature trees with golf ball magnets in them so had a lousy score. 2nd day played the Sapphire, shorter course but good fun with par 3's over water.
Golf buggies has GPS which is brilliant.
Hotel virtually new. Snack prices OK but drinks expensive.
Overall a brilliant place for a couple of days away.

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

The golf course was quite wet when I played here but it came through well. The greens were catching and holding the balls but were still quite quick and very true. There are some really great holes here, no simple short iron par 3's or easily reachable par 5's. You really have to play well to hit a good score. Also great closing hole on this one, I risked everything for par, thinking it would get me through, almost chipped in for birdie but in the end the par still left me 1 point short of qualifying for Turnberry.

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

The shorter of the two Hill Valley courses is perhaps the most interesting with lots of good, undulating greens and well designed holes. Accuracy off the tee is imperative. As with the Emerald the bunkers and tees are in need of attention. We played in July and the greens and fairways were in very good condition.

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

The price on the weekday of Friday, was only £10. The course was neat and tidy, the green were excellent and the fairways crisp. We added a golf buggy for £20 and with nobody in front and nobody behind as we tee off just before nine in the morning, it was bliss. Clean locker room a well stock pro shop, although staff were hardly bubbling over with smiles, maybe because we were going out and they were'nt but who knows. Very relaxing day.

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

Course played long and the fairways are narrow in places but a good test for low and middle handicap players. Greens needed a trim but the weather hadn't been good for a few days.
My only crititism is the lack of hazards in the course planner.
Good value for money with a well stocked pro shop.

Golf course review of Hill Valley Golf Club

Having played at this venue on a few occasions we were extremely dissappointed with the customer service and course conditions experienced. On arrival we were told that there were no buggies on the Non-Championship course (I always mix the names up). We had booked two buggies for a four ball and had not taken our own trolleys. When asked if the conditions were wet, we were told that the course conditions were good but due to some golfers rolling a buggy the previous day there were no buggies due to health and safety reasons. As a result we were offered the hire of trolleys at our cost. I must say that the chap in the pro-shop was not the normal chap we have seen in the past, who has always been pleasant and helpful. The experience got even worse when we tried to order some breakfast and a coffee in the Sports Bar. Not only had the prices increased by approx 50%, but the service was appalling. The staff did not know the new menu items and could not operate the till.
Once on the course it was clear that the greens were in a poor state of repair. This can not always be balamed on the club as pitchmarks and divots are clearly the responsibility of the golfer, unfortunately the average golfer at this course clearly does not care about fellow golfers!
It is with some dissappointment that neither I or my friends will ever think about returning.
