What the club says: The Griffin course was originally designed as a 9-hole, but quickly took shape with another 9-holes following almost immediately. The course is noticeable for its lack of bunkers as it benefits from a combination of tricky tight fairways and small greens, requiring accurate golf to make a score here. A person who thinks their way around can really make the most of the shorter par fours and avoiding the water is always a good play.
The Phoenix course is the smaller of the two courses and offers a great introduction to golf with some easier holes as well as a test for the more complete golfer. Both courses wind through tree lined areas but the Phoenix has a more open middle section to allow players a bit of freedom.

Tried to rain but course in good knick
Though it raied last night and this morning, course in good condition. Greens true and a little damp but on the whole nice to get a round in after so long. Playing off Whites was an Eye opener on some holesReviewer Rating

The course protects itself with its undulating large greens. PAr 3's under 130yds. Longest par 4 is the last at 347 yds which is a slight dog leg to left and plays across 4th fairwayReviewer Rating

Still very muddy and short 18th
Fairways were still quite muddy and sticky. Chipping suffered for it. Greens not maintained yet. You can see that these were full of water, i.e. water table. just recently. Work on drainage but greens will need a lot of work soon if not maitainedReviewer Rating

1st Visit - Would love to return
Really great venue - both courses a delight to play. A mixture of everything, with well placed hazards and a fantastic environment. Well look after, although some of the tee boxes looking well worn, which isn’t surprising as I’m sure this must be a very popular venue. Our society will definitely returnReviewer Rating

Excellent 9 Hole course
This is a interesting and challenging 9 hole course with 3 par 3's and some quite long par 4's so for those who struggle to play 18 holes this is a great course. I enjoyed my first attempt at this course a lot but the 300 long waiting list is another challenge. I would seriously consider 9 hole membership of the Phoenix Course if it was made available.Reviewer Rating

Excellent
Course in very good condition, especially the greens, some very interesting holes and good course management a must. The only gripe we had as a four ball of experienced golfers was pace of play, not helped by no one other than us using the mandatory calling through procedure on the par 3s. I think 41/2 hour plus rounds are the norm!Reviewer Rating

Some interesting holes...
But overall not for me.. the course was tight but that wasn't the problem.. it's just a little boring.. it didn't help that the greens had all been sanded so absolutely nothing stuck, and putting was either through treacle or on glass depending on the break. Not one I?d personally rush back to play.Reviewer Rating

My local - Cottesmore
Played Phoenix Course today. I loved it.The greens are great after the Covid-19 break, and I think the 9 hole Phoenix is fantastic. It's made up 6 4's and 3's, and there is enough variation on the course if you are playing twice for the 18. I played in the glorious sunshine in the Summer.
A great terrace bar overlooks the two courses.
