What the club says: First formed in 1896, this historic course offers a stunning blend of wooded heathland. Combining a beautifully peaceful environment with some stunning views, ‘Farnham Sands’ is a prime example of fine Surrey Golf. An all-weather golf course with superb drainage and playability all year round. A quaint and quirky Clubhouse awaits after a round with first class hospitality.

Charming course with heather in places. On sand so drains well. This was a golf society visit so cannot comment on how it plays all year. The catering we received was first rate, happy to visit again. Not cheap.

Challenging classic heath/parkland

Played here in the Silver Frigate over two rounds. A challenging course if you don't know it with quite a few blind shots ad shots that need to be hit specific distances to avoid trouble. Lots of slopes on the greens, which were pretty fast but not so firm that they wouldn't hold well-struck approaches. A real varierty of par 4 and 5 holes but the one criticism of the layout is that three of the par 3 holes play to very similar lengths. Conditioning is great, bunkers are lovely. Greens became a little bit bobbly later in the day but well worth playing. But don't expect to play your best first time out.

Relaxed and enjoyable day

This was a society day and we were welcomed by the clubhouse staff with Tea and Coffee ready n the bar before moving into the eating area for a Full English breakfast.

For the time of year the course was in very good condition especially the greens. The bunkers are china clay so they can get a little compacted this time of year so that wasn't unexpected.

There is some work going on with large water areas built that will come into play on 14th and 17th holes which meant there were some GUR areas and a temporary green on 14.

A lovely course that offers up birdies but you need to plot your way around to avoid dropping shots to par.

Great setting and challenging course

Second visit so should have been easier this time but it hammered down with rain but this only really affected the course towards the end of our round when a couple of the approaches were waterlogged.

Had a great breakfast before the round and a nice pint after service was excellent.

Very attractive course across heath and parkland. Rolling fairways, interesting greens, good bunkers. Every hole is a good challenge.

Wolf in sheep’s clothing

A good test of golf for any level of handicap. Although a little short by today’s obsession for length, one needs good course management to produce a reasonable score. A different course from the white tees will make you concentrate on every shot.

Long established course in excellent condition

The club was very welcoming to our society with helpful and attentive staff. The park land course is well established in a scenic location. Considering how many courses are struggling to maintain course condition after the recent heat wave, this course is in excellent condition, tees, fairways and greens. Accuracy is required on many of the holes and the undulations on some greens are testing.

Definitely worth a visit

What a superb course. Tree lined fairways, some really challenging holes, well placed bunkers and lightning fast beautifully manicured greens. Challenging for the average golfer but well worth a visit. Lovely terrace overlooking course and great little cafe at the 9th serving food and drinks.

Average!!

I don’t see why the reviews for this place are so high. It’s average and not particularly friendly. A lot of restructuring taking place and needed by the looks of it but won’t return. Many other higher quality places for same money in area.

Weather has been wet, but course in very good condition. Very enjoyable course, well designed, nice views. A lot of new bunkers being put in which will make it more challenging. Clubhouse good and members very friendly indeed.

It remained dry for most of the play but what rain we had did not detract from a good day's golf. The course is in good condition at the moment with well kept fairways and greens. the greens were a little slow but at least consistent. The normally luxuriant heather was not currently very thick so it was a bonus if you had to recover from it to be able to do so. The course from the yellows seem to play long and there are some challenging holes but all were OK with good "course management". The club house was clean, welcoming and cosy.
