What the club says: Opened in 1933 Pype Hayes is a popular mature course with plenty of subtly curved fairways lined with gorse and broad leafed trees, firm contoured greens and lots of deeply sanded bunkers. The key to most of the par 4's is to play an iron for accuracy off the tee as the greens are still reachable with a middle to short iron. Don't be tempted to attack the pin on holes 3,4 and 11 as missing the green often means a dropped shot due to the out of bounds. Play safe and be content with hitting the green, once on the greens you'll find them a joy to putt on. It is a course which is very forgiving and, apart from a few ditches, has no water hazards. It is not very hilly, but there are sufficient gradients to make it interesting.

Good in summer terrible in winter

The course is an absolute mudbath in the winter months flooded everywhere, if they are opening the course in these conditions they should lower the price as £26 is far to expensive for these conditions

Very nice course for the money

Very nice open fairway course, well worth the money, nice big open fairways, greens are decent, only the bunkers need some work as sand is compacted so hard to get club head through

Long time since played here

Decent fairways and greens quite fast considering rain. Some boggy areas between 11th and 12th.
Decent pace of play
No practice greens available. Big downside.

Course was in good condition considering the weather there were a few wet areas but it was to be expected. Disappointing that there isn't a practice putting green.

Course is really let down by the green keepers some green are scabby and some fairways need mowing the rough was way to long for a first cut and the bunkers are just dreadful I wouldn't call them bunkers more like pot holes with nothing but stones very little sand

Very Poor condition

Played in a 3 ball, afternoon of 10th May. The course was in poor condition on many fronts, a couple of avoidable examples being - Piles of grass cuttings sitting in front of entry point to greens and bunkers, stopping the balls roll (could live with the grass in front of bunker !! But not the grass preventing ball rolling onto greens). Unevenly and badly cut fairways, the grass on majority of fairways was too long, bunkers in terrible condition with weeds thriving in the majority. I have played the course many times going back years, however will not be returning until the basic course maintenance is significantly improved.
