What the club says: Under new and revitalised management, the course richly deserves its reputation as being the home of year round golf. There are no temporary tees and greens at College Pines due to the sandy base on which it stands.

We pride ourselves on the hospitable and friendly approach we take with members and visitors alike.

You will always be guaranteed a warm welcome at our Club and we look forward to seeing you.

I loved my experience at College Pines. You could not hope for much more in terms of the course condition and it represents terrific value for money. All 18 holes were in good shape, and we did not have to worry about saturated ground or having to hit off a mat, which is common elsewhere in the UK over winter.

Great Course

The course leads you in relatively gently the dogleg left first is a reachable par for an average senior golfer like me .
There are some quirky holes that make you think.
The last time I played hear was 20 years ago and I can say that it has been allowed to develop into an enjoyable but at times taxing course with strategic rough and OOB

College Pines

This fabulous course is a must if you are in the area. As the name suggests, set within a forest of pine trees the lay out is beautifully defined but not too tight. With most other courses wet and barely playable College Pines delivered - its sand base means the water soaks through leaving the course a delight even after weeks of none stop rain. Extremely friendly in the club house and pro shop, you will be made very welcome. Definitely worth a round!

Great Condition

Played here the other Monday, the course is in excellent condition as always. Perhaps the best winter golf course in England, built on sandy soil it drains incredibly well, no standing water or boggy areas even in the winter rain. Greens were rolling true, PGA Professional was very helpful when giving advice. First round here since the new owners took over the club, the investment they have made is obvious as the course has improved considerably in such a short time. Atmosphere in the clubhouse was very welcoming.

Course drains so well , greens were quite tricky, very busy as not many courses open in the area with all the rain. Limited availability of buggies and Wednesday is competition day for seniors (4 balls) so your round is slow. But the weather was fine and the bar remains open until you leave.

Unbelievable Condition

October - Rain, November - Rain, December - Rain, Early Jan - Rain. Most other courses in area boggy or under water. Played here today and not so much as a mud patch anywhere, full tees & greens. It's that dry most ball washers were water free zones!
Seriously good for the time of year and unsurprisingly busy as a lot of people travel to play. Paired up today with a couple of gents made the round more enjoyable and played well below handicap - more enjoyable.

Fantastic course

Generally play CP every New Years Day - built on sand, drains very well and small areas of holding water (mainly around Greens and Fringes). Proper tees and greens in play, chance to enter a full summer course in winter. Greens still quite quick, even due to recent rainfall; Fairways not too wet and if you keep ball at a lower trajectory, can manage some rollout too. Good course to play in the winter period.

THE best winter course, by far

If you live in the Worksop or Nottingham area you will know that this course is bomb proof in winter, so much so the course survives when golfers give up in bad weather. Anyway, now they have a new greens roller the greens are faster and they have started roping off key run up to greens to help protect some of the areas which could get muddy if they allowed traffic through them. The course is a challenge and will test most golfers, with some short tricky holes and a couple of long par fours, but nothing unreachable in regulation for a good golfer. The staff are great and professional and know how to manage the course in the right way bearing in mind everyone on earth tries to play there in winter. The food is lovely and a treat before and after the round. Lets hope with the new owners coming in we will see an airline added, maybe some changes to the course layout and upgraded paths. But even if it stays as it is, everyone will come.

This is a lovely course, always busy so be prepared as pace of play is sometimes slow.
This is a year round course and you can book a buggy throughout winter as the drainage is excellent.
