The course is in great condition, the green keepers are doing some good work. Not the longest course but good course management is key. A chance to use every club in the bag. Staff are friendly and helpful. I don’t know any other members so some form of introduction would be good for general play.

Even though it is less than 20 minutes from where I live this was my first visit.
Facilities can be described as small, functional, well staffed and stocked. All the staff were friendly and helpful.
Tee boxes were generally good and where they were worn remedial actions was visibly being taken. The fairways were in excellent condition as were the greens; which were reasonably paced and true. Even the paths were well maintained.
Well placed ditches, water and a proliferation of bunkers that were perfectly positioned to catch anything a little wayward ((which is why I hit 4 !). Tree and bushes are reasonably well established though still quite young. Plenty of varieties of birds (herons, terns, pheasants) around to watch when the golf spirits desert you.
Food from the clubhouse was reasonably priced, simple and very enjoyable.
On the whole I cannot complain about anything (other than my own personal shortcomings).

Welcoming, well maintained and well worth a visit
The Burstead's green keepers work hard to produce well kept fairways without too many muddy areas, surrounded by fairways that are challenging without being so difficult as to spoil your round. The greens are approaching superb, especially for this time of year.Reviewer Rating

Excellent course
Lockdown has helped this course re-emerge as one of the best courses around. A real thinkers course with some very tough challenges and no 2 holes the same.Only blemish is when joining in that new members not treated at all well - no introductions to others, no invites to existing groups / comps, no possibility of joining existing weekend swindles (all full apparently) and you’re just ignored with your only option to play rounds alone. Tried raising with the Pro and the committee - no one cared.

Awesome for time of year !!
Played on 2/1/21 and given the endless rain over the last few weeks and the time of year the course was superb. Virtually zero surface water from flooding, tees and fairways all in good shape and the greens were fantastic. Not much more needs to be said, great staff, great course, great value. They obviously know what they’re doing at the burstead !!!Reviewer Rating
