What the club says: You don’t have to be a member to enjoy our superb facilities, so why not spend a day experiencing one of the Midlands finest golfing destinations. The Par 71 6500 yard course is a fantastic challenge for golfers of all ages and abilities and our immaculate putting surfaces with subtle undulations will test the skills of even the very best putter.
Our famed signature hole, the 18th is a challenging par 3 over water set in front of the stunning clubhouse meaning that once navigated your post round drink on our stunning patio will taste all the more refreshing.

want to go back!

played in the mizuno pairs 17jult2023
course was in excellent condition - massive watering of the fairways meant they were "fluffy carpet" light rought ok - heavy rough would drive you to drink! (my playing partner lost 3 balls I thing) the greens were immaculate and tricky - a thinking course to get on the right part of the faiway/right part of the green (back of the green downhill put - 3 put!) it was reallly windy and i liked it - the wellcome from the staff at the proshop/turn/bar and the starter was great --- will be back again as would other 3 (all of us first timers) well done---

Open to the Elements

I played this course with my husband and unfortunately it was a very windy day, which probably made the course a lot harder than it would be normally. The course is very open in places and hence there are quite a few bunkers around. Nice greens and fairways the rough just off the fairways is not the easiest to get out of, but the rough after that is vindictive, if your in it you do not have much chance of finding your ball.

Good course for accuracy

To be honest I had a bit of a mare playing this course, it was very windy and I found more sand than the average 8th army veteran. The fairways are good and the greens excellent and quite fast, the first cut off the fairways can be a bit of a challenge but the rough after it is in my opinion Punitive. If you go in it, forget trying to find your ball. All in all a good day out but if I played there again I would have to pick a calmer day.

Hidden Gem - The Best Shropshire Has to Offer

The Astbury really is a magnificent facility and golf course. Firstly upon driving up to the course you are treated by Astbury hall, a beautiful building which is now host to a well equipped pro shop and fantastic club house, bar and restaurant - all of which are run by a very friendly team.

The golf course itself is immaculate, the greens and fairways are the best I have played on in recent memory, and in that time I have played a number of the top100 uk courses.

Each and every hole is different, whether it’s a short par 3 protected by immaculate bunkers, or sweeping par 5s that needs 2 good shots to get anywhere near the green.

On the turn, they have a fantastic half way house serving light bites and drinks which went down a treat with the group.

Thanks to the team, looking forward to playing again soon.

A stunning and unique venue

The Astbury really raises the bar for golf courses across the UK. The layout has developed nicely since reopening last year and the playing surfaces are always in excellent condition with real attention to detail across the whole estate. The shaped tees provide an interesting feature on every hole and there is clever bunker positioning that keeps you thinking all the way round. Set in a stunning location in the Shropshire countryside, this is the course to play in the region, and the clubhouse has to be one of the most impressive in the UK.

Excellent welcome in the pro shop, great tees and greens. Fairways and rough was very sloppy and borderline unplayable - would like to come back again in the summer when there is a bit of run on the ball as the course is wide open and only protected by relatively small greens. Current weekend green fee is ?60 I think which is too much given the state of the fairways but understand a pricing structure has to be in place by the season we are in - weather has been appalling the last few weeks!

Worth a Visit.

Played here on the 17th October 22 and would say that it was enjoyable. The flags were in some scary positions. Just miss and boom its gone. Nice holes with lots of approach play having to make sure you hit the green as most holes have a few bunkers short and front of the green.

I used my county card discount which I think made it half price (?27.50) I think?
On the whole a good course but I did have some complaints.
1. ?35 for a buggy with no GPS or ball/club cleaner or USB ports.
2. No ball cleaners on tees.
3. No bells on blind holes, and there are several.
Course was not busy so pace of play was not compromised.
Greens were very good and consistent across all 18 holes
Fairways were also good but first cut is too long. I was told that this is deliberate as there are not many hazards on the course.
Some tee boxes also needed cutting
Staff were very friendly.
Halfway house and bar looked very good but I did not use.
There is a putting green and a chipping area.
A couple of practise nets near the 1st Tee.
