Chose this from tee-off times at short notice, £25 for the round so was expecting big things, course layout very good but the underfoot conditions were not great
To be fair we have had some serious rain the past few days. Greens were still bumpy and full sand so didn't play well. I found it a long course so all round game needs to be spot on to score well.

Played here with some friends.
Positive is that all the staff we dealt with were terrific, great service
As for the course it's a bit soulless, maybe I am spoiled by living in fife and being a member of Leven which is a great course, but deer park is a bit bland.
Fairways were in good shape but the greens were very mixed, many were rather muddy and the 10th in particular was a mess and would have been better on a winter green ( still parred it tho!)

Great course and ideal conditions. The course is a good length with a large variation between the holes to ensure you need to hit all types of shots to get around successfully.

good course but it can play long. Bit challenging at some points especially the back 9 when you are hitting up the hills.

Played Deer Park today (25th August 2013). Put in simple terms, I will not be back.
The layout was nice and the potential for this course to be very good is there, unfortunately the condition if the course is nothing short of awful. The main problems are as follows: fairways the length of the first cut of rough, both fairways and rough was completely covered in the remains of grass cutting (the worst I have ever seen), sand less bunkers (though containing a number of large stones) and finally very very slow greens. The greenkeepers are not doing a good job!
From my view, this is yet another example of the course playing 2nd fiddle to the number of other things going on with the club attachment; gym etc.
Really not happy that I spent money there, could have played a municipal course in better condition for less than half the price

Reviewed May 1 2013
Course is really bad just now, I wish I had read the previous review before playing this week. They have put in a lot of drainage channels but as a result the front of every green has several lines of gravel/chippings. Lots of soggy areas. Greens were ok. Not very enjoyable. The £18 doesn't do it, I felt I was wasting my time there, you can't play proper approach shots or chip and runs as the channels get in the way. I really suggest you play elsewhere for now. Hopefully by the summer things will be better, but for now you will be wasting your time and money at Deer Park.
