Poor Course
Played here July 2019I didn't enjoy this course & wouldn't play it again.I only played it to tick it off as i hadn't played it before.
It all feels a bit basic from when you arrive (walking to the 1st tee there are mounds of rubble/sand ?) to the hole designs .Also it's an undulating & hard walk round .
The green complexes are quite minimal & most greens are oval shaped with fairly flat or sloping slightly upturned saucerish surfaces & some greens just sit in a featureless open area surround with no greenside bunkering or moundings around it .I also found that on medium length approach shots the greens ,although not particularly firm , weren't that receptive & the ball would run to or over the back & if you landed the ball short the ball the same would happen.Quite a few greens had small patches of sunburnt blemishes on them .
The fairways & tees had a lot of weeds on them & the bunkering sometimes consisted of a hole with only one bunker on it & in an unusual position.
A hole layout map on the scorecard or a hole layout sign on each tee would have been useful as well as marker posts for the blind 2nd shots on the par 5 6th & 9th holes.
The 17th tee is close to the clubhouse but you then have to play a long uphill par 5 going back out away from it & we weren't motivated to play these last 2 holes .

Avoid like the plague
What a dive. The clubhouse feels like a prefabricated barracks room and the car park is a mudhole in Louisiana type affair. The course, whilst monet has been spent in it, is a shocker. No challenge at all and extremely dull. The greens however were the crowning glory. Diseased soft muddy awful looking things. I washed all my gear and disinfected my shoes after playing here. Avoid this place. Its terrible.Reviewer Rating

This place gets no better!! Haven't played here for over 2 years. Was told it was much better now, but have to disagree. Still no ProShop to speak of, advertises a non existent pro. Obviously had a lot of work done with landfill, but really hasn't helped. Yes it's given the course some contours but the overall condition is shocking. The fairways and greens are poor, and the rough is full of weeds. There's no facilities, tatty bar for its age, and the foodie not look inviting. It's really not worth the effort. Won't bother again, there is much better and friendlier nearby by.

Heard much about this course, but can only say disappointed. Can see the golf course has recently undertaken extensive soil dumping, but for what we had to pay, was totally disappointed. Sorry don't have much to say about this course but won't be returning, make sure you have your wellies. Clubhouse had no faciliites to speak of either.

Been a member for the last couple of years and the whole club has been going down hill , it needs a person who can give it some golf loving and talk to its members and not just the ones who are by the bar all weekend , it's the best course around but need someone who can give it what it needs , the staff are brilliant and the club house need knocking down and rebuilding . But for the money you can play it for a few years before it starts wearing you down that someone can do that to a golf course with alot of potential .

Have played here numerous times over the last 20 years and always found it a challenge but this round was destroyed by abysmal greens. These greens have not been looked after it seems, a lot of bumps, patches, rot and one green looked like a bonfire had been lit on it. The fairways were ok but not great and the tee boxes could do with some attention too. This was my first round back here since lockdowns and I really expected more. Such a shame it’s been allowed to get to this state.

Staff still friendly, bar area ok. Members themselves seemed a bit offish which was a little disappointing.

You get what you pay for its a no frills course and bar . Needs practice area as no nets and putting green very small and not fit for purpose. Could be a very nice course if managed better with proper green staff to look a far the course. The management seem more interested in selling logs for fires. Says it all really.

You get what you pay for at Chalgrave. It is cheap but it wasn't in great condition IMHO!
Some of the greens are ridiculously small( pitch and putt size), incredibly spongy and slow. Tee boxes were very untidy and fairways rock hard.
Clubhouse is just a very large porta cabin.
It could be a very nice course if some money was thrown at it.
