Great course but serious challenge!!!
Sherwood Forest is a excellent golf course and will give any golfer a serious challenge. Despite playing in November, the fairways were bone dry and in very good condition, minimal scaring etc, tee boxes were excellent. The greens had been tinned so difficult to judge, but all the signs where there that they would be superb in the summer. The facilities are good and the club house is very picturesque and echos tradition. The course it's self is extremely challenging, and almost every hole has at least roughly around 150 yards carry in heathland. So accuracy off the tee is essential! To fully enjoy this course in all its glory, I would recommend a handicap of at least 18 to enjoy this course to its full potential All in all this is a great course and one for any golfer to tick off his list.Reviewer Rating

So enjoyable
From start to finish I loved it. From deer roaming over the course to seeing the autumn trees in all colours the views were great. The course was really nice and interesting with no 2 holes alike. Loved playing the 3rd, 4th and 18th with the clubhouse as the backdrop which looks magnificent. Members and staff were very friendly. Definitely worth a visit f in the north east midlands. Did Sherwood Forrest after Notts the day before with Golfbreaks for ?139 so pretty good value I think for 2 top notch courses.Reviewer Rating

Lovely heathland course. Was wayward off the tee for most of the day and played a total of 9 shots out of the sand.

Beautiful heathland course, despite playing in the middle of a very wet winter. Consequently the greens were damp, which was to be expected, but still reasonably firm. The course layout is fabulous, getting better as the round goes on. I played as a visitor, without a member, so only able to play mid-week. Very reasonably priced at £35 including a good breakfast. Fairways remained firm, the course is fairly undulating, with some decent views. Overall experience was excellent for mid-winter round. Would love to play again in the summer. A friendly member joined me for a few holes, and other players I passed were equally hospitable. Very special golf course.

quite a long course off the tee with some drives needing to be in the excess of 200 yards to clear the hazards,tree lined fairways that give you a chance if your drive is not accurate.

Absolute beauty
Played the Forester 2023 event with a much needed practice round the day before, what a course and brill layout. greens excellent and slick. score on the front 9 and hold on round the back 9. you will need your A game with the driver or a spotter :-) £55 with lunch and 54 holes (inc practice round) best value for money EVER. Staff especially Maria outstanding along with super friendly chef/bar staff. the event was really well organised and even with bad weather a joy to attendReviewer Rating

Superb, fast greens. Firm fairways framed with gorse, heather & trees. Challenging par threes & tough stretch of par fours on the back nine will really test your game on this classic heathland layout.

Picturesque course in Notts
Sherwood Forest is a great course, in sublime condition. A tough course to score well on as its very easy to roll into the long grass and heather, but a good challenge. Practice facilities are improving - and the soon-to-be opened range looks great.Reviewer Rating

First time playing the course at the midst of the wettest autumn on record. The course was immaculate and bone dry. Roll on the fairways and spongy greens. Playing off fairways mats but if that protects these amazing fairways, I’m all for that.\\Must play.
