Despite the changeable weather a thoroughly enjoyable round at one of our "go to" courses. Surprisingly busy for a Wednesday afternoon in October. Course in good nick despite the recent inclement weather and at £14 a round as preferred member a real snip. Managed to put a decent score together which was pleasing in the conditions. Will certainly play here again.

A really nice set up. Played woodland/Lakeland, nice contrast between the two sets of 9 holes. Woodland tight and a bit tricky if you're not straight. Lakeland was a bit more forgiving. Course in good condition, a real pleasure to play

Excellent Course

We played this club during a 2 night/3 round stay.
The greens were probably the best I’ve played on in this country. We played on the day of the club championships and came across some brilliant pin positions. There was interesting holes on all three of the nines. Only downside was a five and a half hour round on the Monday, caused by a visiting society/group. The course does need a marshall. Bunkers were out of play due to recent heavy rain damage, but this didn’t really detract from our enjoyment.

I’ve visited Dorset Golf and Country Club a few times and have always had a really good time. With three loops of nine to choose from it's very easy to spend a pleasant day there. Courses are always a challenge, the hospitality is great.

Good course worth visiting

Fairly open course, so forgiving. In very good condition and most enjoyable. It was quite a slow round with 4-ball games ahead, and I have had this before on a number of occasions here. Greens good but disappointed that golfers ahead hadn't been repairing pitch marks. Bunkers are many! And bunger sand fairly poor and having to play off very compacted surface. There's a fair amount of walking between holes, but 3 separate 9-holes to play.

Great venue

Had a 2 night 3 round stay in a lodge. The facilities are superb and the courses interesting. The greens were huge and very tricky with so many slopes but all were in great condition. The courses were challenging with various obstacles and many bunkers. The rough was a challenge and ditches in awkward spots as well as trees. Most greens were heavily protected by bunkers but these were the only let down and need more work plus sand in them as very compacted. Food and service were great with friendly staff. Would highly recommend going there. 3 different 9?s so played all twice. The lodge we stayed in was huge and well equipped including a sauna

Nice course

The woodland course, although shorter, is more challenging because of the trees. There is always trouble lurking there.

Great layout. Course is let down by the poor state of the bunkers
Could do with some more steps on some of the tees for us older golfers

Mid week round was very quiet due to there being nobody staying at the resort.The course is in good condition but a little bare in places.
Very good course for all levels.
