What the club says: An 18 hole parkland course with a variation of hole designs to challenge golfers of all abilities. The course has memorable views and in particular when playing down to the green on the second hole where the verdant and pituresque backdrop is a sight to behold on any day.
Although the 15th, 16th and 18th holes run adjacent to the M6 motorway, its presence is hardly noticeable once you have left the 14th Green where it comes into view for the first and last time. The 14th green at Gathurst can be seen to the left of the M6 motorway when travelling north and around a mile from and approaching junction 27.
The 18th Hole is a long par 4, even longer in wet conditions, and a good second shot will land you on the green situated in front of the clubhouse and patio where afterwards, you can have a relaxing drink, either on the patio or in the friendly atmosphere of the bar.

Great Parkland Golf Course
First time I've played here and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The layout of the course is excellent with wide fairways. They are free lined, as it is a parkland golf course but they don't cause too many problems when going offline. If being over critical the greens could have been given another cut, but overall they had a good true roll to them.Reviewer Rating

Course was in very good condition. greens were a little long and a bit slow, so could've done with a cut to speed them up. always feels a bit cramped, especially on the back 9. But a good round to make you think.

Good Course
A course that uses its contours well, taking advantage of its slopes & hollows.It's in fantastic condition & the greens are fast & true.
The first is a fairly gentle start, but then the 2nd is a cracking downhill par 4. It arguably gets a little repetitive as you play around the practice area in the middle of the course, but that's being very picky.
I loved the 15th towards the motorway, it's a really nice hole.
The guy in the shop was brilliant & talked through almost every hole & where to go before we teed off which was brilliant.
Definitely worth a visit

Suffering a little
I really like the layout of the course and in perfect conditions it would be great. Greens seemed to be suffering with the heavy storms recently as they were slow and bobbly. Nice course tho(Round played: Aug 2020 - Score: 89 Handicap: 14.7)

Nice course, worth playing
Played Gathurst for first time in an open event. Well organised. Friendly welcome all round. Great breakfast. Good practice facilities. Course in great condition, greens firm and true. Some nice holes, a couple of water hazards in play especially on par 3 17th. A few ups and downs but quite easy on the feet. Will return for sure.(Round played: Jul 2020 - Score: 77 Handicap: 5.2)

Great courae
Went to Gathurst on an overcast drizzly day and got a little bit wet but the course was in superb condition. The fairways and the greens were as good as you get. Due to the torrential rain in the previous couple of days there was some water in the bunkers but hey the rules cover that. Played here a few times over the last 10 years and it's always in great condition.Reviewer Rating
