Good draining course

We played at Blake's as it boasts it's the driest course in Essex and after a couple of very boggy rounds we thought we'd give it a go. I don't know if it is the driest in Essex but it was very good only a couple of wet patches. Greens were good too.

Refreshing different

Being an inland links course, it was refreshing different from playing a conventional parkland track.

Wide open. And great value

Fed up of hitting trees. This seemed an antidote. Only to lose more balls in 1 round than last 4. Rough unforgiving. There?s water around too. Great challenge when the wind blows. Can't wait to return

Long time since last visit

Basically it's a big field.They are trying to improve it by putting in new bunkers which obviously costs a lot of money but they also need to plant more gorse to make it a proper golf course.Cost is ?15 on weekdays and I think that tells you a lot

Great course! On a hot summers day it as the feeling of being somewhere like Portugal with its wide open space. Well maintained course with a nice variety of holes.
