Fantastic facilities and course. Friendly welcome and great value for money, Wonderfully scenic course with great wildlife. Deer, pheasants, woodpeckers, squirrels and plenty of birds of prey were spotted but alas for me no birdies or eagles !!!

The best course I've ever played on. Scenic. Challenging. Varied holes. With a one-off hole - the 7th.

Played Broadstone on a winter warmer deal. £45 for a bacon roll and coffee on arrival, 18 holes and then a meal afterwards (can't argue) Greens were in brilliant nick for the time of year. Staff were great and the food was lovely. I will be definitely returning to Broadstone ????

It is not often that you walk off a golf course and say that you cannot remember a single weak hole (although the 18th is not as strong as some) From start to finish each hole was a delight to play and having played about 60 of the top 100 courses, Broadstone has to be much stronger than 90 in that list? Top 40 at least is where both myself and playing partner would have put it. Better than Parkstone, better than Hankley Common, much better than Moortown, Little Aston, Southport & Ainsdale and many more on the list! I am happy playing at Burnham & Berrow but would be just as happy to be playing at Broadstone!

Big course and a big welcome. The unassuming drive into the course does not prepare you for what awaits. A well appointed modern clubhouse with excellent facilities and great views across the opening and closing holes. Excellent practice facilities adjacent to the clubhouse. Driving range, chipping green, putting green. A warm welcome from the professional and all staff whether catering or bar making the visitor feel as though their patronage is valued and a genuine sense that they all know what you are about to experience on the course. There is an excellent half way house where food can be preordered from the seventh tee by intercom so it's ready when you complete the hole. A nice touch and tasty bacon sandwich. In the clubhouse I can heartily recommend the club sandwich but ensure this is partaken after the round as you may not want to go out if eaten before. Friendly members complete the welcome and are always keen to hear of your experience and provide a knowing smile when you can't help but enthuse about their course. Then there is the experience. Each hole has it's own character but all fit into the whole. A very strategic course where a drive into the correct position gives the best approach to large undulating greens. The bunkering is spectacular with the Colt signature heather adorning most of the traps. You must bring your “A” game to score well but the course is still enjoyable if not quite on form. Punishments are strict but not penal. You may not like the lie you've found with an errant shot but in general you will have a shot. The one part of your game that must be on song is the putting. The greens are fast and undulating and a deft touch is required to avoid the three putt. Ensure you are confident from 4 feet because these are generally the tap-in lengths. The course is laid out on a vast expanse of natural heathland and makes you feel part of something bigger. Millionaire golf? Yes in feeling but not in price. A must play on any visit to the area.

This was our first visit to Broadstone GC as a society and what a super day it turned out to be. We were warmly greeted by all of the staff that we met and enjoyed some really tasty bacon rolls with our coffee. The course was in excellent condition for the time of year and especially so considering the overnight rain. We all thought that the course was outstanding. Whenever you walked off of one green to the next tee you imagined that the next hole was going to be perhaps a bit ‘ordinary’ after the last one but not at all. Great golf holes just kept on coming !!! The meal afterwards was superb and to have a choice at this price was exceptional. our compliments to everyone at Broadstone GC. Do not change anything and we will definitely be returning next year. Thank you. Jeff Mussell- BAGS Hon. Secretary

The course has been having trouble with the weather this winter and has the 18th closed (so they have replaced it with a 106 yard par 3). The club reduced our fee by £15. The pro came to the first tee to chat to us and advise us how to play the course, he drove round in a buggy to check how we were getting on (how many pros take the time to do this with visitors?) The course is a very good layout, although the stroke 1 7th is a bit silly with a blind tee shot and blind second shot. The back nine is the better half as everything is laid out in front of you. The greens were fast and you had to keep the ball under the hole, as some putts could roll off the green. Afterwards we were well treated in the clubhouse by both staff and members.

Broadstone golf club is set in a beautiful location,on the day i played with my friend David Wilkes,it was 30 degrees,and absolutely beautiful.We had a buggy( can be a bit temperamental with the alarm),which had all sorts of amazing touch screen options,including a GPS map,with the options to set distance,measure distance to and from any point of the hole,truly remarkable..
The course itself was in lovely condition with no restriction s or damage to the fairways.The holes are a great and challenging combination,with many levels,this results in some beautiful views -down to the tee on the 3rd,and other blind drives.....it is very well maintained,and there were no problems with traffic through the course....
I would say,this is a challenging course,holes that look easy can prove to be tougher than first expected... we always make a little video as we walk round at every course we play........ i dont know if it is allowed but feel free to have a little watch http://youtu.be/uMrlWC1Ux3A
Verdict -9 out of 10......

This is by far the best course I have played. Value for money everytime, if only my game could stack up against it. Have just joined this club and with the work carried out over the winter I can only say it is all for the better.
