What the club says: The Blakes Championship course, designed by renowned course architect Howard Swan, is best described as an inland links. The layout and undulations of the course are totally unique to the area with rolling fairways and sleepered bunkers giving the feel of a traditional seaside links.

Reviewed Sep 25 2019 by Adam H - rated 3 out of 5 This club has a great signature water hole mid round and is in an open parkland setting. It’s not overly challenging but has some nice views and is quiet. Greens were in good condition.

Nice challenging course, with a variety of holes, some nice par 3's, fairways in good condition, bu the greens are patchy/bumpy in places and slow, but they were all consistent, so you soon got used to them. for the price it was a very enjoyable round on a Sunday. The clubhouse is nice but never seems to be staffed properly, we booked on Golfnow so pre-paid, when we went into the clubhouse everything was shut including the pro-shop. The only people around were 2 barmen who looked to be preparing for a function (they also do weddings etc). They seemed a bit surprised that they had a gold course!. No food available so we had breakfast at the local harvester around the cornerCourse (layout/challlenge)

The set up is lovely and the price is great, with a little extra effort on the course this club could really be great! However, the price was good and it is great for someone still at the early stages.(Round played: Jul 2019 - Score: 105 Handicap: 27.6)

I was really pleasantly surprised at round of golf for ?20 n a Sunday morning. There must be a catch!Course design and layout excellent. Downside below average greens and tee boxes, sand also a little hard. With effort this course has massive potential.

Reviewed Apr 19 2019 by David M - rated 3 out of 5 Decent track but the greens were poor. Service was pretty slow in the bar but there was a society in the clubhouse. At £20 with a buggy (not that there were any available) it’s decent value.

Reviewed Mar 25 2019 by Joe - rated 1 out of 5 Poor but Cheap
The course has some good challenging hole layouts, but the course condition was poor. Didn't realise I was on the fairway at times as it was more like the rough. Greens were awful and one of my putts actually bobbled up about a foot off the floor. I understand it's winter and cheap but I have played cheaper courses in the winter which have been in a lot better condition.Course (layout/challlenge)

We've played the course a few times before, and must say the course has been improving over the last few years. That being said, on this particular occasion (Early February) the greens were not in the best condition. I will be back there again in the future.Course (layout/challlenge)
