What the club says: Built in the late 1970's the Abbey course has now matured into a fine, championship standard parkland course measuring over 6,500 yards. Designed by Donald Steel, one of Britain's leading course architects the course has been extensively upgraded and lengthened in recent years.
The layout includes matured trees, lakes and on the whole the fairways are wide with the rough not too punishing, the picturesque 7th is a 192 yard drive from the medal tee with the green surrounded on three sides by the river arrow. The 13th is a challenging uphill par 4 drive between two mature oak trees at 250 yards with the green concealed out of sight at the top of the hill.

Reviewed Jun 11 2020 by Andrew M - rated 5 out of 5 An amazing Local Course.
This really is an amazing Course that sits almost in the middle of a housing Scheme. Easy enough to find if you use a Sat Nav. Once you enter the Car park and see the Course it really does look amazing. Not a bad walk if you sometimes struggle as only a couple of holes where you have an uphill walk. Some fantastic holes and they have just completed 3 new holes which are superb. Give it a try and you will NOT be disappointed.Course (layout/challlenge)

Proper test of golf! I enjoy it as it is not easy. No push over holes as there is danger everywhere. If you are visiting the Midlands - book a round. just 3 miles off M42.(Round played: Jun 2020 - Score: 87 Handicap: 13.4)

Reviewed Oct 11 2019 by Robert J - rated 2 out of 5 The pictures on the website make the course look very good but in reality, we were disappointed with it. The course was wet in many places and lots of mud on the walkways, not sure what it will be like later in winter. Lots of water but not a lot in play. Rough was just a little too high, constantly searching for your ball when it was just off the fairway. Pace of play very slow, we ended up behind two groups of members who joined together to make a 5 ball!! Greens in good condition though, bunkers short of sand in the middle, ok around the edges. The course just felt a bit sad. Unusual layout with two longish walks between a housing estate. Did not use the clubhouse. May give it another try during summer.

Reviewed Apr 13 2019 by Richard M - rated 5 out of 5 Just renewed membership for 7th year
It is a great course, and not resting on any laurels.Quite a bit of work has been done so some new fairway bunkers have gone in (currently GUR) and a few closed up. All the greens have been worked on and already much improved over the last 3 weeks but still a way to go until they are 'summer ready'. But just playing early April and seeing how manicured the fairways are looking off the tee I think this course is going to be incredible over the summer.
Although a member for 6 years already and I still play 30+ other courses over the course of a year I always look forward to returning to my home course.
The club house (Tawny Bar) has been extended and is much bigger and better. Just beware you could be having a post match pint with a bunch of girls just wearing robes having let the spa for a drink/lunch........... :-)

Reviewed Jan 8 2019 by Stuart P - rated 3 out of 5 We played here after waiting for heavy rain to stop falling. Within half an hour of it stopping, the course was good enough to play, just as the pro shop told us. There is a decent variety of holes, the fairways and greens were in good condition and it was a test for us who varied from 28 down to 20 handicaps. The back nine seemed long in the wet conditions but an enjoyable time was had by all.

Reviewed Nov 22 2018 by Jim R - rated 5 out of 5 Great course, despite weird front nine configuration
Great course, almost every hole has something that could hurt your score. Front nine configuration is weird though because the 8th hole seems like it should be the 9th as it plays back up to the hotel. So it plays like a front 8 and back 10! That doesn't, however, detract from the quality of the course.(Round played: Nov 2018 - Score: 92 Handicap: 26)

Reviewed Aug 17 2018 by Richard M - rated 5 out of 5 Course is playing nice
Great challenging course. You must be precise with so many tee shots so as not to get blocked out for your second.Not a weak hole anyway - they can all wreck any card!
The funny thing to me is the 3 par 3's are all stroke index 16-18, but all have so much water surrounding them - all potential card wreckers - beware!
Greens are in great condition. Well done to Craig Tidmarsh and his greenkeeping staff for a tip top job this year.
Never spoken to anyone who has not enjoyed the Abbey...I've been playing solidly as a member for 7 years!
Today I had a shocker +10 over handicap - so this course can bite!
PS Best driving range by miles for miles around!
