dog walkers everywhere
dogs are off the lease and roaming everywhere ... in front of the tee box just before you smash driver and pooing on the verges. Not really much of a golf course if this can't be controlled. Shame because greens are v good.Reviewer Rating

Nice course
First time visit to Banstead Downs and enjoyed it. Some fun holes, especially the two driveable short par 4s but overall I felt the course is a little featureless and layout is a bit repetitive. However, the conditioning was quite good, with good fairways and greens. The interest comes from some steep false fronted greens, undulating fairways and some deep bunkers attractively framed by thick rough. I can imagine it gets pretty fast and firm most summers as it was pretty firm still with all the rain this year. Tempted to say it's not the most challenging course but I did play my best golf in years, so probably not an entirely reliable viewpoint.Nice pro shop, friendly enough atmosphere, fast paced round (midweek twilight), warm up nets and decent chipping and putting practice areas.
Crossing the road halfway round at rush hour was interesting to say the least!
Would return but plenty of other courses I want to try first. Good value at ?30 with a County card. Wouldn't pay ?50 though.

Coming out of winter it's still a bit patchy but worth playing on the twilight rate. Can get a bit slow if there are matches on (got stuck behind 4 x 4 balls, wasn't let through so skipped ahead and played the 16 - 18 loop twice instead)

Decent long course with some pretty holes and challenging greens in terms of borrow/speed. Excellent practice facilities although the greenside bunkers were pretty devoid of sand. Wide enough to hit driver on most despite lines of trees/woods. The course involves crossing a busy dual carriage way twice , quite scary but not noisy despite proximity of roads.Reviewer Rating
