Risk and Reward Course

A cracking course in the east of Essex. You need to be on the ball from the first hole, with out of bounds to the right on the first four holes. After that the course is more open and some very short par 4's which are driveable. Greens are small which means a good short game is crucial. They are rapid too which was a nice surprise. Would definitely play again, especially for £10 twilight!!!

Nice course - super friendly staff

A touch on the short side with most par 5?s reachable in two. Some nice holes, well payed out. Greens very very fast and true.

Great value and great course

First try for us and couldn’t have been more impressed. Great friendly welcome and course in brilliant condition. Greens fast and true, fairways also good. Told tees are being renovated and good on the whole. Would definitely come back

Good course

This is a different type of course. A lot of the holes are protected by trees in front of the hole.

Reviewed May 11 2013

Love this course. The original 9 holes are some of the most interesting holes in Essex. The most recently added holes allow you to open up the driver a little more with plenty of space for wayward shots. Very Friendly clubhouse and staff. Speed of play on every visit has been good with 3.5 hour rounds on every occasion.

Reviewed Dec 14 2012

Given the recent cold and wet weather and the amount of rain that came down during the round I thought the course was in very good condition. 1 temporary green and 1 really wet one, but other than that they played well, rest of the course was excellant and very fair. A few winter tees in play but mostly on par 3s which is better for play. A course that makes you think and create shots which I really enjoy and as my coach is based here and he's been really good I must give him a plug, Craig Lockwood. Just wish it was nearer home and the weather was better!

Reviewed Mar 12 2012

Although I enjoyed the course and the round, I did find the layout a bit higgledy piggledy. There is a lot or walking between Green and Tees and I think it could be laid out better. There are also a couple of holes where you walk round the corner straight into the line of play, such as the short Par 3 11th. The walk back to the 18th Tee is long and goes alongside the 2nd so beware here as well.

Favourite home course
