Has the potential to be an excellent course but needs a little care and attention in places. A couple of fairways contained muddy areas that hadn't been roped off ready for repair. A couple of greens were a bit patchy. The tenth tee (yellow) is a disgrace. The quality of bunkers was variable. Water is in play at almost every hole requiring carefully chosen clubs and accuracy. Make sure that you are fully equipped before travelling because the pro shop is sparse.

I've been playing The Suffolk for about 10 years, have always enjoyed it & the condition has improved significantly in the last few months. Always greeted warmly & the challenging layout makes it an interesting round every time. Look forward to playing again soon.

Reviewed Jun 24 2015

This could be a fantastic course but sadly at the moment is very far away from that. It is very green and lush. However the state of some of the fairways is v poor. ? of the tee boxes are like teeing off from the Village Green and the water hazards, which are challenging but good, are ridiculously overgrown with very high nettles amongst other things. The fairways are in good order but after that there is only mid rough, not skirt on the fairways and now low or tempering of rough. It is poor. The greens are generally ok. It appears the course suffers from the same as the Hotel, (from reading Trip Advisor) in poor condition and in need of repair and refurbishment. The whole complex lacks leadership and management. That itself would improve matters very quickly even without the required investment

An interesting course with a few enjoyable holes. However,the whole place (the course and the hotel) is looking tired and needs a lot of investment to bring it up to standard.

Reviewed Aug 11 2014

I find some of the reviews on here difficult to believe. Sadly, this is a course in decline. I have visited the course many times over the last 7 years and each time it is in worse condition than the last. Tee's are overgrown, fairways are frequently waterlogged due to ditches not being cared for, allowing the water to drain off. Greens are now showing weeds and signs of distress. This is a massive shame, the layout is good and it could be a great course. Clearly the course is being neglected, i assume for financial reasons. I hope they get some investment soon or it will be too late. I will avoid now, but will keep tabs on the place in golfing press in the hope of a turnaround.
