Greens in good condition, some of the fairways could have done with some more grass on them but overall course in pretty good condition.

HILLY BACK 9

Definitely a course of 2 halves ! The front nine are varied and interesting - the back 9 very hilly and "samey". Excellent greens.

Donnington Valley Golf...we had two three balls on sat .....the course was in excellent condition with lush fairways and tricky greens ....my only "complain" was the pace of play and some tee's did seem in a dangerous place with balls landing to close for comfort !!!

Reviewed Oct 28 2016

Course is tougher than the length might suggest. The ground was soft in places, so lies in the rough were variable, some courses in the area have much firmer ground and are in better shape. Had a couple of tee shots find the fairway only to blocked off to the green by branches which I found annoying, not played before but now I know the line. The layout could be better, a lot of criss crossing, I think it's because they want the 9th to finish by the club house, but this compromises the flow. Overall we had an enjoyable round and the facilities were excellent.

(Round played: Oct 2016 - Score: 90 Handicap: )
