Reviewed Dec 6 2018 by Robert M - rated 2 out of 5 The course is scruffy despite the time of year and it has fallen behind other such courses in its category. For modest investment and some TLC it could really step up a level as it is a great layout. Much improved leaf clearance this year, however.

Reviewed Nov 14 2018 by Joe R - rated 3 out of 5 Fantastic value for money. Good walking course with some interesting holes and forgiving fairways. No. 7 hole is a real challenge.

I am an OAP living in St Albans so I can play for £13 --or about £350 a year.Good value for a municipal course and greens ok --apart from the leaves --it is late sept!
Bunkers not great because of the lack of rakes --I expect they get stolen.
Watch out for the many walkers who do not stay on the paths

Reviewed Jul 20 2018 by Martin R - rated 3 out of 5 Public course, worth a visit
Batchwood is a municipal course which offers reasonable value for money for a reasonable quality course. It's biggest let down are the bunkers which contain little or no sand in places. Usually well maintained but occasionally shows a lack of attention.(Round played: Jul 2018 - Score: 99 Handicap: 28)

Course remains quiet and easy to get on when you want. Value is well above average

Reviewed May 15 2018 by Joe R - rated 5 out of 5 Have a bash at Batchwood, you won't be disappointed
Batchwood is a challenging course with a good variety of holes. The course is always in good condition. If you don't make a birdie, you can at least look up and see beautiful birds of prey soaring above you. On the outskirts of St. Albans and with the Cathedral sitting proudly on a mount in the distance, Batchwood is great value for money.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Oct 28 2017 by Marek L - rated 3 out of 5 Considering conditions - A good test
Drizzle all day with heavy rain fora couple of days before hand. Greens damp and slow. Some like the 1st tuffty. Not the best. Layout good with some interesting holes like the 7th, which must be the signature hole. Would like to visit again to assess greens again. ITs a municple with Gym attached and so facilities lacking but there is a members building. Not sure if allowed in and certainly no indictation if we were welcome. The gym entrance had all the cards and dealt with payment. No food on show just hot drinks and very few snacks. Would be better prepared next time(Round played: Oct 2017 - Score: 83 Handicap: 15)
