Fantastic Round - Forest & Beeches

In bleak winter weather, me (off 9) and a mate (off 6) decided to make the trip out to Forest Pines for a ?20 round. We were met with bright sunlight and lovely manicured holes and surroundings. The Forest Course was immaculate and such an interesting challenge - I'd give it 8.5 out of 10. Our second nine was Beeches which wasn't as good but still 7 out of 10. Both courses are a challenge, but Pines stands out for me as superb. The undulating fairways and greens plus the mature and huge pines mean you have to be accurate off the tee to give yourself a chance. We did find it amusing that it seemed to be very favourable to a draw player (my mate) and not a face player (me), so beware. The Pines 9 was closed but is one of the better ones out of the three. I would certainly say to aim for Forest and Pines or Pines and Forest if you are doing 18. But if you end up doing beeches you'll still have a really enjoyable round. The club house and catering are excellent and the staff were very engaged. Watch out for a recent change, you have to register your number plate with golf reception to get an all day parking pass ... or risk a fine. Go there and if the weather is good you will not be disappointed.

Just Fantastic

Stayed and played at Forest Pines in July. All 3 courses were in fantastic condition, a really good test. Hotel and food excellent. Well worth the 2 and half hour journey.
Back there in a couple of weeks.

Lovely Condition

Beautiful course in lovely condition. Not easy , you have to be straight and some of the greens are very small and very heavily bunkered making accurate approach shots a must.

Fabulous course can;t wait to return

Someone said this is the Woburn of the North - very very true
The golf course is basically right around the back of the hotel. It was a bit confusing what needed to be done about parking a car, but they have a tablet to register your vehicle when you enter the building.
The pro shop and 19th bar are basically at the rear and within the hotel complex. The upstairs bar has impressive views. You look down the 1st hole of the Pines course and the 9th green of the Forest -both lined by beautiful straight lines of pine and beech trees – impressive. Leaves you with one thought “We definitely need to be straight today!”
The course charges £60 at the weekend but there are Teeofftimes offers and you can get a round from as little as £20.
It is 3 loops of nine. Only the Forest (par 36 - 3093 yards of yellows) and Pines (par 37 – 3272 yards) were open. The Beeches will open later in the Spring. So, a total par of 73 (SSS 72) measuring 6365 yards is not that long when you consider that extra par. It doesn’t need to be long, as the tree-lined course makes it a tough enough test. Considering there were five par 5’s averaging 465 yards (the longest being 487 yards). And, only one par 4 over 400 yards (ninth on the Pines – my last hole measuring 430). It is not a long bombers’ course. It is a strategic players course!
Overall the course was one of the best I have played. Built on sand it is well drained. Parts of the heathland Forest course reminded me of North Hants, and some of the pine tree lined holes are like Bearwood lakes - both exceptional courses.
Overall the experience was fantastic. The fact it poured down for the first half hour and some greens had standing water temporarily, and virtually all greens had had some hollowtined work done to them in the last few weeks did not deter me at all. I just can’t wait to return in the summer.
