Golf course review of Notts Golf Club (Hollinwell)

Top notch in almost every respect. Great facilities, courteous and friendly staff, together with a superb course in great condition. Played Lindrick the day after and Hollinwell was better in every respect except the speed of the greens

Golf course review of Notts Golf Club (Hollinwell)

The best course in Nottinghamshire bar none. Always in great condition. Great green, short finely cut fairways and menacing rough. Superb test of golfing skills.

Golf course review of Notts Golf Club (Hollinwell)

This old heathland course is a severe test of anyones patience and golfing skills. Many prestigious competitions have been played here, including Open qualififying for 2008. The fairways are firm and fast, rough penal and greens so slick that a nudge travels 20ft, and in places as undulating as Augusta! The course is hilly, with some wicked blind shots, especially the teeshot on the tenth. Some of the views are spectacular. The clubhoyse is old fashioned but very friendly, the proshop well stocked and reasonably priced, the food excellent. Definitely a course that has to go on your must play list.

Golf course review of Notts Golf Club (Hollinwell)

Played this on the clubs '4 ball summer deal' which if compared to other top courses in area is brilliant value.
This course is rated as top 15 in England & top 40 in UK and its not hard to see why. Very similiar in style to Woodhall Spa but in my opinion its tougher!!
6600+ yards off yellow.
4 x par 4's over 420 yards.
You really have to think about your tee shot on every hole and i mean really think it through, you can't just simply 'Boom' it down fairway like you can on 99% of courses and expect to be able to play your second into the green.
If you manage to avoid the perfectly placed fairway bunkers and actually hit the tight fairways, but if your not in the perfect place, then the heather, or trees, or green side bunkers will make your second shot have to be something special... It really is that tough.

Golf course review of Notts Golf Club (Hollinwell)

Without doubt the best layout I have ever played not a poor hole on the course. Some of the most devilishly placed fairway bunkers I have come across and true bunkers not your usual sandy hollows you can take a 3 wood to. If I was being hyper critical the greens were a bit woolley, but it is October after all. If you want to try golf how it was meant to be, give this gem a try. If you don't enjoy it you are playing the wrong sport, try darts or snooker.
