What the club says: The Golf Course was laid out in 1936 by the legendary H S Colt who was also responsible for the design and remodelling of many famous courses including the New and Eden courses at St Andrews, Muirfield, Sunningdale and Royal St Georges. Edgbaston is a natural parkland course surrounded by mature woodland. It is a tight course that demands accurate play to tricky greens that are always in excellent condition. Edgbaston was nominated as one of the top 200 courses in the UK by Peter Alliss.

Superb

A fabolous setting, with greats views from the gently rolling up and down to the clubhouse. Course was in great condition. Thanks.

Hollow tinned greens for an OPEN event??

With so many good courses and fantastic greens in the area, I finally booked into an overpriced pairs open @ £35, fantastic clubhouse and facilities but things turned worse wehn we hit the putting green to find the greens were recovering from being tinned and sanded. great short game area and a range just down from the 10th tee.

Moseley single medal £20 you got a coffee and a pastry what a nice touch, not even a coffee or a water. sadly I won't be back after this complete joke, If you have an open event your show casing your course I guess the rumours that the greens were shocking was true!

Deflated, one last word course layout was very nice.

Seen it looking better

A very good course but lacking a bit of TLC on this particular day. A little rough round the edges, and the greens were just 'coming back'

Fantastic course

Cours was fantastic and greens a dream. The pro shop and staff were very welcoming and helpful. if booking a society there be mindful of numbers and the confirm early if possible as they were unable to accommodate my total number.
The winter package is great value.

Excellent course, superb welcome

We visited Edgbaston on the Winter deal, ?30, including bacon roll and coffee on arrival. Firstly, this is a really good looking old fashioned clubhouse. We were met with a warm welcome both in the club shop and in the bar when enjoying our bacon roll. Everybody we came across were really friendly and welcoming. The clubhouse has a perfect balance or character and modern facilities.
The course itself is a good challenge, not the longest at just over 5800 yards, but requiring accuracy throughout. There is only 1 Par 5 so the course is Par 69.
We were allowed to play through by 4 sets of members, 2 fourballs and 2 two balls, all very happy to do so and very pleasant as we passed - this certainly added to the experience and allowed for a slick round with little waiting.

Wow, Absolutely Stunning.

Had been told about this gem which is close to the centre of Birmingham. It certainly is. Very grand looking, however made very welcome. The course itself has some fantastically scenic holes. My favourite is the 16th. WOW, what an amazing hole when you are standing on the tee looking down the hill towards the hole. Get yourself up to this course if you ever can. Its an amazing course. We enjoyed it immensely and the holes flew by. We had something to eat when we finished and the food was also excellent.

Played Edgbaston on Monday 20 th feb with golf stewards and although not a fan of parkland courses this was fabulous. A tough front 9 with some long par fours that require accuracy off the tee and taking long irons. The back 9 is slightly easier with several tricky interesting holes. The greens were up around 8 and good for the time of year . I would recommend Edgbaston to anyone .
31 points with a 4putt on first. Hcap 7

Played here Friday 18th Nov 2016, called on Wed 16th to book, the pro offered to match teeofftimes.co.uk price at £30 each for a 2 ball, when we arrived a different pro disputed they price match made a fuss and tried to charge us £35 each, he finally relented and we paid £30. The course I have played many times was in awful condition tee to green, the fairways were covered in leaves and unlike other courses I've played this week there looked like no attempt had been made to tidy up a little, the greens as always were in good condition a little on the small side but nevertheless firm and true. Of all the members we saw around the clubhouse and on the course only 1 person acknowledged us with a nod of the head (stuck up is an under statement). Overall the experience has left a sour taste in the mouth and I doubt I will ever return (I took 16 golfers for an expensive day out here last year) its vastly overpriced at £30 per round Hollywood Golf Club is in far better condition and fairly priced at £15.
