Green courses are back

Amazing to see how quickly the course is returning to normal. Greens and bunkers have been maintained, some of the tees must be next in line.

A bit greener than Cottesmore.

Very dry but tees have grass and greens have grass but are slower and have more issues with cracking and replacement patches, together with tarpaulin around edges. In the middle of the day but it is quiet. Won't be long before greens will need a lot more than just water. Rest of course will be ok.

Wow, what a shame a little gem has been ruined. Greens are in a shocking state and getting even smaller, lucky if you can get near them with so many roped off areas. Perhaps a little more care on the course instead of worrying if the food is ok would help. I won’t be wasting my money here again.This used to be a good course with quick greens, now????

Not in the best of states

Greens tined recently and still recovering and quite hard but not fast. Can't land anything on them. Fairways could do with some seed as could the 1st cut of rough.

Course not at its best

Greens were ok. Been tined @ 2 weeks ago so still recovering. Fairways looking very dry and little grass. Not much rough and what rough there is is very dry and missing clumps. That is the 1st and 2nd cut of rough. Greens are so dry you land a ball, on most holes, short they will roll off back. If you land one on green then chances are unless a SW/LW, it too will not stay on green

Another nice day at The Darenth

They continue to make improvements, making the most of the beautiful Kent countryside.
The owner sets the scene, he always seems to be around, chatting away in the clubhouse or out on the course checking on the greenkeepers progress.
