What the club says: Forest Hills is a naturally undulating parkland course set in the beautiful Forest Of Dean and is currently regarded as being one of the finest courses in the area, with such excellent drainage, tees and greens that it is playable all year round. Challenging enough for County Events and friendly enough for visitors and societies to enjoy a day's golf.

Lovely course and friendly members
I played here with the Forest of Dean golf club in our away game with our neighbours.The course was in superb condition, the layout is very interesting. I needed to do some research on the google maps /Shotscope before playing as I had only played it once before many years ago. This is quite a tactical golf course, the driver shouldn't be used on every hole (if you're wild like me), there are a few dog legs which require precision and distance if you're using the big stick so I used hybrids and 4 irons to keep myself in play and let the driver rip on appropriate holes. There is a variety of ponds, trees, bunkers and long grass to catch you out.
The greens were very fast and challenging with mild to moderate undulations..
The food we had was very nice.

Haven't played this course since Dec 20 and there have been lots of changes to the club structure, which are really good. Course paths are also being improved, a work in progress. Price have increased as well but just about acceptable. Course is a really good challenge with lots of different types of holes. Fairways and greens excellent, even the rough was cut to a sensible length. Staff very friendly. A must play.

Fantastic course
Fabulous course in fantastic condition. The fairways well groomed and greens fast even though it was raining all day, if it had been dry they would have been rapid. It looks like they up grading the course & facilities which will improve an already fantastic placeReviewer Rating

Always worth playing!
Hadn't played the course for 4 months and after a lot of rain this week, it was still in excellent condition as always. All holes are a challenge and varied in style. Greens a little slow but expected after the rain. No heavy rough, fairways excellent. The pro is very friendly and helpful and we had a great experience in the clubhouse, where the staff were great, even had some banter with the chef. Will always play this course, any time of the year.(Round played: Oct 2020 - Score: 90 Handicap: 17.1)

Average Course at Best
Arrived as 3 x 4 balls of good to decent golfers , found ourselves behind a Visiting society of 40 playing a Ryder cup style event off the white tees ! Had to wait 10 minutes on every tee , one of our groups walked off the course after 9 holes which took 2 hours 45 mins , the other groups completed the 18 holes in 5 & 1/4 hours !! Poor course , felt at several times in danger of being hit ,would never return to play as not 1 hole of the 18 was memorable, bland , uninteresting & tatty , is only worth £10 green fee rather than the £27 we paid , in you enjoy nice courses , don’t go here !(Round played: Sep 2020 - Score: 92 Handicap: 15.9)

Absolutely fantastic, all aspects of the course in great condition. The pro is always friendly, unable to use the bar due to Covid 19 but still a great day.
