Dodge the dog walkers
Standing on the first tee waiting to hit our first shots and there are 3 people walking their dogs standing in the middle of the fairway chatting and had no intention of moving until we shouted.On the second of the Par 3s our last player went to hit his tee shot and two ladies just walked in front of the green without a care in the world so he set up to play again and another three then followed...Its so frustrating dogs everywhere on the front 9.The course is nice and challenging but just be prepared for the interruptionsReviewer Rating

Great value for money
A very nice parkland course, plenty of interesting holes with not one bunker. A very enjoyable round for £17 at the weekend.(Round played: Jul 2020 - Score: 83 Handicap: 10.8)

Surprisingly good public course
Set in park/woodland meaning dog walkers and joggers are everywhere didn't detract from our round at all. Plus as the whole course is open to public like common land I was amazed at just how good the greens were. They were in brilliant condition.Also I've seen many provate courses with much worse fairways.
Although I didn't have the best round as it was a new course for me, I thoroughly enjoyed my round and would happily play there again.

Public course off Epping Forest
Played on two occasions, late winter and early summer. Both times minimal interaction with staff on arrival other than ?hello?, the course itself is parkland, few doglegs and blind tees, greens are fantastic and several have slopes that require precision.The main downside to this course is it is a public course and as such the course and several holes attract sunbathers at various points, dog walkers and general public with huge lack of awareness of their surroundings holding up play.
Tricky course to review, some def plus points but overall not probably one to enjoy consistently each time, a real lottery on pace of play and public interference,

Worth a round
I have played here admit 6 times. It would be nice for more facilities like ball washers and something to clean your shoes with afterwards, but it's a fairly good course, quite challenging. It's rustic - not many water features and the fairway was a little rough.(Round played: May 2020 - Score: 104 Handicap: 25.4)

Played on Tuesday 10th March. It rained quite hard the night before but not so as to make the course as bad as it was. Standing water on many of the fairways approach to tees completely boggy with thick mud and water coming over laces of golf boots. Course in my opinion should have been closed as indeed West Essex is a mile down the road. Greens very slow and fluffy and you have to hit the ball as if for a 50 foot putt when you are 20 feet away.
That aside still got 20 points on the front 9 with 6 penalty points for 3 lost balls(one came down from 100 foot high, a 9 iron on a par 3 plugged so deep it could not be found)

Just About O.K. But Probably Won't Return
Played here January , 2020 .I hadn't played here before as i don't live in the area . I would say it's o.k. to play once but i can't see myself wanting to play it again.
It has a fairly pleasant & serene setting & i liked that it felt as if it's part of the town .I quite liked the dog legs 2 , 5 , 12 holes & 18 is a nice finisher but the rest of the holes aren't anything out of the ordinary. There are only three par 3's of which two are fairly forgettable .The course would have benefited in having 4 or 5 par threes & if they were better holes .
The greens putted the slowest i've seen this winter but they may have been being protected as this winter has been ultra wet so far .
Good value on the twilight rate @ £10 .The course may also be busier than you might expect .
