Testing course

I would like to play Crondon Park again . It was the third course our Society played on a tour and not being used to play 3 consecutive days I knew my swing had become shorter . I am not a long hitter thus knew Crondon Park would test me out but usually very straight . I did not drive my best but front nine apart from making a mess of the first and the par 3 4th did ok . Back 9 tiredness caught up with me and did not play anywhere near how I know I can . Thus would like another bash at seeing if I could get around the course to my 18 handicap . I believe I could because I keep the ball in play and that is the key at Crondon as it punishes any drive off line .

Nice course but unfortunately we played shortly after the greens had been tyned and sanded making putting very unpredictable.

Poor value for money

At it's best, I'm sure a very nice course, good challenge. However course quite tired, accepting it is late season and no doubt heavy use once lockdown eased, but needs maintenance. Unfortunately greens had been spiked and filled with sand - very unreliable ball tracking and distance. Very slow - 45mins late teeing off early Sunday afternoon after competition, and slow progress. Not good value for money.

Great Course - worth a visit

Very nice course to play even though the greens had just been serviced and were very unpredictable & bobbly. Pins in very difficult positions which made the day even more challenging but a very nice course to lay. And the staff were all excellent

Taxing

Keep playing this wonderful course in the hope it will improve my game, alas, all I get is more frustration. Drive straight, manage your round and putt well you will attain a good score, however, if like me you only achieve 1 or 2 out of the 3 you will be frustrated. Excellent condition for the time of year and 4th was a real challenge in the wind

Worth a round

This can be a challenging course with some long holes suited to the long driver. The wind can play a big part as it is open and high in places where it can be gusty. It will benefit from straight line drive as it can be very unforgiving if a bit wayward, there are four holes where playing across water will cause you to decide to 'go for it' or play safe. All in all a very good course, lovely setting and good clubhouse, would definately recommend.

Difficult

The key to this course is to make sure you drive straight and hit the fairways, very unforgiving if wayward off the tee, 4th and 14th are tricky par 3's due to the water hazard but all in all a nice course
