Great Course
What a fantastic course. Fairways generous and in good condition for mid October. Greens were true and course is a good test for all handicaps. Views are 360 degrees, beautiful on a clear days. Yes there are walkers, mountain bikers but they do not impact on the enjoyment. Clubhouse and changing rooms quirky, probably do with an update; food and drinks excellent and good welcome. Pro was great, and course definitely worth the 1 hour drive.Reviewer Rating

Most enjoyable round ever
Arrived here after reading a few good reviews, and was certainly not let down!! Although the clubhouse can give a bit of a poor first impression, I found the course a genuine treat to play. 8 blind holes really make you think about your shots, but if you follow the marker sticks and get a good hit, you can be rewarded. Great views from the course we're an absolute bonus. I've played some great courses, but this was the one that I genuinely walked away with a smile on my faceReviewer Rating

Remarkable & Memorable Course
Played here June '19 .Every once in a while i discover a course that is a revelation & this is one of them .
It's on top of a hill on the highest point in Gloucestershire .Hence you get a combination of incredible far reaching panoramic views ( the best views that i have seen on an inland course) & a course that has endless excellent holes .
A very natural & undulating course & there is a feeling of tranquility ,remoteness & getting away from everything up here.
The holes are very well designed to fit in with the natural contours & the course covers a vast area to the extent that on the farthest part of the course at the 13th green it seems as if you are miles from the clubhouse .
Great collection of par 3's & just when the course starts to feel a little long winded you come across a superb stretch of holes (13 to 16 ) as you turn & head back towards the clubhouse .13 is a par 5 which inclines & then drops down sharply to a green surrounded by mounds as you come over a ridge which reveals even more views ,14 is a brilliant par 4 where you hit up to a marker post then go up & over 2 ridges ,15 a great par 3 across a chasm & 16 another excellent long par three through a funnel of mounds.It feels very evocative on this far section of the course.
Course condition was good in is kept to be natural with the greens being very nice to putt on & the course as far as i can remember is bunkerless.
It feels slightly underwhelming when you arrive ,as is the clubhouse .Yes it's a long & undulating in places walk round but for anyone who hasn't played here before if you pick a sunny day it is absolutely worth it.
An absolute bargain at £12 after 2 p.m.

Fantastic Course
After securing a hot deal for £10, We visited Cleeve Hill without lofty expectations. The pro greeted us warmly and gave us some tips and background to the course. This happened to be the 80th different course I have visited and instantly goes into my top 10.Admittedly there are a lot of blind shots and the route isn't always the clearest, but wow what a course.
I played with a long hitting golfing partner, so we both experienced the course from different perspectives, we both agreed it was a real challenge.
After 3 days of heavy rain, the course was in great shape. Greens were surprisingly quick and it took us a few holes to adjust. The views are some of the best I have ever experienced, situated right on the edge of the Cotswolds and overlooking Cheltenham and it's racecourse. I plan to make the trip back up Cleeve Hill soon and we have added it to next years Society league's list of venues.

A truly unique and rewarding golf experience. Sharing the course with sheep causes you to pause and consider the origins of the game. Course conditions are excellent, layout is challenging, people are friendly, food is good, cost is reasonable ....all in a setting that is scenic and memorable. Only regret: as a visitor to Cheltenham, I'm not able to play Cleeve Hill on a regular basis (with my golf buddies back home).

Played the course with my son and we loved every minute of the round. Cleeve Hill gives you a golf experience in its purest form with sheep all over the course and fairways that lean right and left to blend the landscape.
I would come back and play this course week after week and never get bored as the wind changes the dynamic of every hole dependant on which way it blows. One hole you are hitting your Sunday best 180 yards into the wind, the next hitting 350 with the wind from an elevated tee....breathtaking.
Greens amazing, views amazing course amazing! Golf on the day doesn't deserve a review!

Gorgeous Views
If your legs are up for the challenge, and this course isn't easy walking, then you'll be rewarded with a lovely course and some outstanding views.The greens, tees and fairways are good rather than outstanding, but some of the holes are really pretty. The holes I loved were all downhill, 9, 10, 17 & 18, but the views as you work your way down to the 13th are stunning.
The fairways are all pretty wide and the greens aren't the trickiest you'll play, so the main protection is when the wind blows. There's little to protect you from it.
The clubhouse certainly has seen better days, but there was a warm welcome there and in the pro shop.
I would absolutely recommend Cleeve Hill.
