What The Club Says
This course, designed by the internationally renowned Donald Steel is set along the River Crane. It features the contours and lakes of the rolling countryside and is named after the majestic river, which comes into play on many of the holes. The course was opened for play in 1992 and the tricky parkland layout is less than a 30-minute drive from the centre of Bournemouth encompassing wonderful features of the surrounding Dorset countryside.

Lovely course, BUT?.
Played here again on Sunday 20 July.It's a lovely course but from 2nd tee onwards (we started at our allotted time) we had to wait. Took us 4.5 hours to play 18 holes.
There was no apparent course management in relation to slow play.

Good Summertime Course
Coming out of a wet winter the course is now showing some conditioningGreens played quick, tees where all starting to grow and fill in as the fairways are. Couple of tees are being repaired and looking good. Food is always very good and the staff helpful and friendly.

Disappointing
Played the 9 hole Woodland course and was very disappointed. There was no map of the course available so we had to assume where the green was on the longer holes. A number of the tees had artificial grass with no real option to play from real grass. The fairways were not close mown so swallowed balls and if you missed a fairway it was awfully long! The greens were in a poor condition with a lot of sand in bald patches. If the course had been maintained better it would have been very enjoyable, but we won't be going back.Reviewer Rating

Wide open course, enjoyable
Recent annual maintenance on greens so not a good time to give an assessment. Otherwise well maintained, although semi-rough a bit thick in places. I should imagine they would shortly cut fairways shorter soon (but their green maintenance and spurt in grass growing means they could do with another cut). But good course.Reviewer Rating
