Reviewed Jan 8 2020 by Philip R - rated 5 out of 5 Excellent landscape, scenery & routing
Crowborough feels like an adventure - almost all its holes are dramatic, there are great views, there's strategy and the condition is good. It's a very memorable course, underrated and great value compared to its heathland relatives in Surrey.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Nov 27 2019 by Roger J D J - rated 4 out of 5 Shame about the weather
Unfortunately we played the course on the wrong day. It was very wet with lots of standing water on fairways and greens and flooded bunkers. Very low cloud gave no views and some fairways were difficult to make out. That said, a great course, pro shop and clubhouse. We did not try the food or practice facilities. Course condition marked as fair due to the weather. You could see that on a better day it would be very good. There were very few people on the course.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Oct 3 2018 by John A - rated 5 out of 5 Would I Play Again? Most Definitely!
There's a lot of history here, well detailed on the club website. It's also worth looking at the descriptions of each hole to make the most of playing this course.Beautiful views of the South Downs from the elevated first tee invite a long drive to a wide fairway, but there are some long, sometimes intimidating carries over heather and deep ravines to come later.... this course may not suit the higher handicap player.
Good variety of holes with different challenges, all of which are memorable after just my first visit. Nice 'springy' heathland fairways, greens rolling true, well maintained bunkers.... generally the standards you would expect to find at a top 100 course. A few dogleg holes where driver is not always the best choice from the tee.... I know now for next time!
I live 70 miles away, so it won't be a regular for me, but I will look forward to returning to play here again.

Shame about the weather and especially the rain. Some great views of the South Downs from the Highest Golf Course in Sussex. As mentioned very wet under foot and last couple of greens underwater. Condition though not bad , greens very playable. Some tees need a bit of work. What can I say apart from would play here again...in better conditions.(Round played: Jan 2018 - Score: 96 Handicap: 15.6)

Reviewed Jun 4 2017 by Eddie M - rated 4 out of 5 This was an evening game, for a twilight price. The course is a good layout with lots of up and down holes. The holes are tight with trees waiting to catch errant tee shots. The tees need a bit of water as they look a bit tired. The fairways are in good condition (they are difficult to stay on), the greens rolled well, but looked poor.This is a course where accuracy is more important than distance, I would hit a lot of three woods off the tees. There were a couple of blind tee shots with no obvious marker post.
