Nice course, worth playing

Played Dean Wood on one of their open days, great value. Friendly welcome in pro shop and clubhouse. The course is quite impressive with some visually stunning holes from elevated tees. Some tricky par 3s especially 15th and 16th. Good layout with variety of holes. A little up and down in places but not exhaustive. Greens true and good speed. Will be back next year for sure.

A great in land course with a challenge for all golfers and excellent greens.
A warm welcome to all and a picturesque hidden gem by James Braid over 90 years ago.
Quite tight in areas making shot shaping and course planning imperative.
Front 9 is flat but the back 9 is more raised tees and greens making it a course of 2 halves.
Make your score on the front 9 and keep hold of it on the back 9. Excellent day out.

A hidden gem of a parkland course in nice surroundings and kept in great condition.
The greens were as good as I have seen anywhere this year, even now in October.
A true and fair test of golf for all. The front 9 is relatively flat and you can make a score to keep hold of on the back 9 which is very picturesque with some raised tees and inviting greens.
Can't wait to play it again. a warm welcome in the clubhouse is given by all who are properly dressed golfers. Five star Excellent Food and beverage.

Well presented and kept course. The front 9 are relatively flat and fairly narrow, good straight shots are essential. The back 9 are rolling hill wit wide fairways and greens protected by steep bunkers. Good atmosphere around the course and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Played this course May 2013 - what a hidden gem it was !

Front 9 gives you a false sense of security for what is to come on the back 9!
A real test, but very fair and suitable for golfers of all abilities.

Greens & fairways immaculate - top 100 course in my opinion

Reviewed Jun 18 2012

Played Dean Wood yesterday & after some horendous rain the 2 nights prior to the game I was expecting a call to say the course was closed. Good enough it was open with no restrictions & what a great course it is.

1st 2 holes were pretty easy then after that out of bounds on most holes, tight fairways but pretty fair lots of bunkers but if you hit your drive in play it wasnt to bad on the front 9 but then from the 10th to 18th the course was superb hitting over valleys, water in play 2 190+ par 3's then the 18th was one of the hardest holes I have played out of bounds left & right tight fairway plus it was 50+ yard par 5.

Was well looked after in the pro shop very helpful & the food & clubhouse was superb. Would recommend a visit especially if the weather is nice & will be on our society calendar in the near future
