Reviewed Oct 5 2021 by William H - rated 3 out of 5 Council run course in reasonable condition. Very reasonable green fees for the older golfer. Maybe due to the weather but no queues and good pace round the course.

Reviewed Aug 27 2021 by Sean W - rated 3 out of 5 Nice
played here a fair few years ago and thought it was in poor condition, but have to say its really improved. Greens are good and fairly fast, fairways in nice condition, bunkers need a little bit of work, Only real grumble was the practise area, the 'putting green' is a chipping green and the nets have more wear then my 1987 lucky pants. Overall and taking into account the £22 green fee you can't really go wrong. Will be back for sure

Reviewed Jul 24 2021 by Geofffrey B - rated 5 out of 5 Best Public Course in the area.
Panshanger is by far the best Public Golf course in the surrounding area. The holes are varied and very challenging especially for any right handed playerswith a slight slice or fade. Situated in the Mimram Valley means taht there are lots of sloping fairways that make it difficult to stay on the fairway. At the moment the course is in a good condition most greens are very good but rough/semi rough slightly longer than I would like so leading to lost balls a lot of the time.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Jun 6 2020 by Eddie M - rated 3 out of 5 Resting the course has benefited Batchwood
The coronavirus lockdown has done the course a lot of good. There are 15 greens which look good and the ball rolls well. The other 3 greens are recovering after the irrigation system had been damaged. The fairways are dry and have a few cracks. The semi rough is good, with consistent grass coverage. The rough is long and you can easily lose the ball. The letdown are some of the tees which haven't been maintained and are now looking rather worn out.(Round played: Jun 2020 - Score: 84 Handicap: )

For a public council run course it's not bad, could be better if as much time was spent not it as the rest of the sports center .Reception staff have no clue about tee times ,as I booked mine a week before and they still over booked my time slot and was told to squees in. Not enough rakes for bunkers ,Course (layout/challlenge)
