Reviewed Dec 6 2018 by Andy W - rated 4 out of 5 Sunny Winters day
ave played here many times before but managed to pick a lovely sunny day in November and the course was in the best condition I have seen it. The greens, which can often be poor, were in excellent condition really helping make it a great day. If they were always like this I would play here far more often.(Round played: Nov 2018 - Score: 88 Handicap: 17.8)

this is a short course that bombers would easily play if they keep it straight. Position is key to avoid the water on the course. fun round to play but would be better in better weather. Good clubhouse and facilities.(Round played: Nov 2018 - Score: 92 Handicap: 17.7)

Staff very helpful, having had to postpone due to bad weather, they re-booked us for the following week with no issue. Despite not being able to see the first two greens due to fog, the course was in great condition. My only criticism would be the tee boxes were a little shabby. The greens were slick with some tricky pin positions. Having never played there before, I found there was a little confusion as to where the next tee was and a bit of crossing over other fairways and going back on ourselves. The guys I was playing with did question the stroke indexes on a number of holes. I didn't have an issue with this but on about 2 or 3 holes the ladies tees were at least 90 yards ahead which I felt was unnecessaryThe club house facilities were fabulous. We didn't eat but the food smelt lovely. The changing room area was immaculate. Will definitely be playing there again. Great value for money.

Reviewed Jul 13 2018 by Tony B - rated 4 out of 5 Blacknest Golf and Country Club, worth a visit
Not too long a course, with some very picturesque holes. The type of course that tests you to use every club in the bag. Plenty of water scattered around and plenty of soft sand in the bunkers. At this time of year, after the baking hot sunshine, the fairways are looking a bit dry and sorry for themselves, but that will no doubt improve with a fair amount of rain. The real test on the course are the greens. Lots of small greens and a lot of undulations on them as well. Very nice clubhouse and pleasant staff. My only criticism of Blacknest is that the tees are pretty awful and could do with a fair amount of work to them. All in all a very nice course and would recommend a visit.(Round played: Jul 2018 - Score: 87 Handicap: 17.5)

Reviewed Jun 26 2018 by Neville S - rated 4 out of 5 Lovely Parkland Course
Although the course is fairly short, 5478 yards from the yellows, it is far trickier than you might first think. The frequently tree lined fairways aren't the widest, but there's a good mix of holes, and quite a few of them where there are opportunities to drop shots. Water, ditches and bunkers play a part on most holes.The greens aren't huge, but they were in a very decent condition, and with the recent hot/dry weather it made finding them a little awkward.
The clubhouse is on the smaller side, but it is very friendly and the food was good, and the welcome there and in the proshop was very pleasant.
I certainly intend going back again soon!

Reviewed Jan 30 2018 by Warrick/Macclesfield - rated 1 out of 5 Mudbath - AVOID
Regrettably played this course on Saturday 27th January 2018 – we walked in after 11 holes due to it being a mud bath. There was no difference between the length of the grass on the fairways and the rough and there was what appeared to be a rabbit scrape in the middle of one of the greens. There was slippery mud everywhere, pools of water which were impossible to avoid. THIS COURSE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN OPEN (if only to protect the course).We spoke to someone working in the professional shop once we had changed out of our dirty clothing and his response was “you are entitled to your opinion” – not exactly decent customer service.
We spoke to a local in the car park afterwards and he said that the course is well known in the area for being in this condition and “unplayable” for at least 3 months of the year.
PLAY IT AT YOUR PERIL.

Reviewed Oct 5 2017 by Ian C - rated 5 out of 5 Played on the Open Fairways Card - ?14 a round, had an offer on for ?15 a round. Breakfast taken in the clubhouse beforehand, excellent. Some of the fairways were very wet considering that we haven't had a lot of rain so we have labelled this a "summer course". Greens however were in good condition and the green keepers were busy cutting & mowing the grass during the round. Well worth a visit.
