Better courses nearby!

Played at this parkland course expecting great things after reading the reviews on this site. Left Completely disappointed and very wet. Being a clay golf course I’m sure I should have expected the conditions after rain but nowhere near worth £60.00. There’s a course just south that offers much better value and customer service for half the price.

I played Cowdray on recommendation and was lucky to know a member and be signed in as a guest. The greens are dreadful and full of dead patches. My friend who indroduced me was embarrassed by the condition of the course. I'm sure it's better in the summer. Best holes 4 & 5, the views are lovely of the South Downs.

Very strange. Played here numerous times in the past and loved it. What’s happened. They still have the winter markers out around the greens and looks like a mud bath, the greens really poor and bobbling around all over the place. I’m sure it will recover to it’s normal amazing condition but some way away yet.

Good course but third round in a row of over 4 1/2 hours with the last round being nearly 5 hours!!! I'm sure as green fees we are seen as only a visitors so it doesn't matter... won't be returning..

Good but could be so much better

Beautiful golf course in some of the finest scenery and countryside in West Sussex. Very pleasant club house and changing facilities, golf shop more of a kiosk than a shop and dreary staff in there, who looked like they'd rather be anywhere else, than serving punters. Some fine holes, especially on the front 9, but very disappointed to find so many unrepaired divots on the fairways and some of the greens. A decent half way house, but closed on the day and some members I met, moaned about the fact it is closed more than it's open. No sign of any marshals and no sign of anyone in the starter hut, disappointing given the stature of the club and it's reputation. Slow play an issue in places, no doubt some of the octogenarian members shuffling their way round with the usual 'thou shalt not pass' attitude. Liberal attitude to dress code, some very casual attire worn by some players I saw, again disappointing.

Come on Cowdray. Let's have everyone properly dressed, let's have a couple of marshals out in buggies on the course and let's sharpen up a bit. The club feels like it needs a breath of fresh air, feels a bit stuck in a rut, feels like it's living on reputation. You have a very good course, yet the golfing experience felt me wanting more.
