What a fantastic course. Members and staff were very friendly and helpful adding to a great morning of golf. The course itself is in excellent condition, although the greens played a little slower than expected. The course is picture perfect and each hole presents it's own challenges. We were fortunate with benign conditions on the first 9, however it become a much sterner test on the homeward stretch, with every hole seeming to be into the wind. I would love to come back soon. I wish I was a member!

A most enjoyable course with fast greens and sculptured holes through the dunes. A course that requires a few rounds to get to know where to miss and how to get the best out of your game.

A great day out to be enjoyed by all. The challenging Channel course is a real test and is not to be laughed at. But the Championship course is a fantastic course to play, the undulating fairways which are tight and are a test to maintain with the wind coming off the sea makes sensible play a must. The bunkers are cavenous so enter them at your peril. The greens roll true and fast even right at the start of the season to the credit of the club. Change is coming and the club are looking to update and improve. The clubhouse has a certain character which some may find dated but adds to the charm of the whole place. The food is delicious and extremely fairly priced, recommended to all as a must play, but not for the faint hearted, it is tough course but a pleasure

One of the best, if not the best, links course I have played - and I have played a lot of them!

Frankly the hardest and most testing game of golf i've ever played and I've played some of the best links in the UK....
The fairways are in places 10-15 yards wide and the penalty for missing them is often strict, the greens are fast and tough to hold and when we played the wind blew at times up to 30mph. We were fighting for life at one point, the course definately beat us.
But a what a beautiful way to go, it's a true test of your game and well worth a visit!

I visited Burnham & Berrow this week.
The course was in superb condition with greens as quick and as true as most clubs could hope to achieve in the middle of summer for their club championships or other prestigious competition.
Burnham and Berrow isn't an easy course. If you are a higher handicap (say, 18+) you will probably struggle to score well but just go and enjoy this fantastic links course.
The par 3's are exceptional. For my money possibly the very best collection of par 3's you will find on any single course.
The clubhouse is very traditional but firendly and comfortable. They have a good menu and the hot chocolate is to die for!
Easy to see why they have been selected to host two major championships this year: The Brabazon Trophy and the British Boys Championship,

Smashing Course. A truely terrific links course. Tough as hell. Played 3 times over 3 days and each time the course changed due to slight changes in the weather. Good facilities and friendly staff. I would play again without doubt if I was in the area again. Only downside was the lack of yardage books. Playing this course blind for the first time will be punishing. This is was all links courses should aspire to be like.

Beyond doubt this is one of the south west's gems, and a true test of golf. A genuine links course, the course is almost always playable even in the worst of winter with greens to die for!
One little known feature of this club is that whilst the main 18 can be difficult to get on, running parallel is a quite superb 9 hole course, definitely NOT a pitch and putt which always welcomes visitors, this too is well worth a visit

Lovely course, some interesting holes
Played recently and was very impressed with course condition. Greens ran very true. Not an easy course if you go off line but some good holes. Probably not quite worth the guest fee, but if you can play with a member then recommend.Reviewer Rating
