Reviewed Oct 2 2025
Was looking forward to playing here for the first time, but after doing so, I personally wouldn’t return.
Felt the person in the Pro Shop wasn’t overly welcoming and didn’t provide a good first impression.
Arriving on to the first tee, we were impressed with the standard of the tee area, wide and in good condition.
Moving along the course and approaching the green, our buggy came to a grinding halt. Not knowing where the 2nd tee was and no signposts to direct buggies (this is a common issue throughout the course), we had ventured into the geofence area which wasn’t explained to us whatsoever.
The greens were in good condition, some were way slower than others, but most were very quick. The greens and the courses overall condition was the most positive aspects of the club, albeit some bare patches in the fairways here or there. The bunkers were really poor, with barely any sand in the ones I went in, with one practically like playing the shot off concrete.
Course layout is pretty decent if you know where you’re going, but for newcomers, signage is a must. Especially those in buggies, it’s hard to know where the buggy path is, or which one to take for your particular hole.
Overall, we were not that impressed with the experience of the course, and again wouldn’t return. Our view was this is definitely not worth the £60 fee per round we paid.

Nice variation but busy
Some very nice holes with lots of challenge and well maintained throughout.However spacing and pace of play was poor, constant wait with people behind as well. Also an insane amount of dog walkers, runners and bikers to add to that.
However very nice golf course with good practice facilities would play again but maybe different tee time.

Nice hidden gem
Pretty hilly in places, a short course but a good challenge. Some tough part3 holes and a couple of really challenging par 4s. The course was very firm and bouncy, which presented a real challenge on approach shots. In nice condition, with true greens. Pace of play was a bit slow but the members I joined for the last couple of holes were very friendly and helpful.

Really nice
Played with two friends on a Friday afternoon. Pro shop really helpful - we weren't sure whether to play as the heavens opened just before we arrived but we had booked a tee time. Course quite dry considering incessant rain for weeks. Quite quiet. Simple but tasty food in club house. Recommended.Reviewer Rating

Challenge with great views
Challenging course with holes that go up and down the valley sides. On common land so have to watch out for pedestrians and dog walkers. Playing regularly would certainly keep you fit. Good clubhouse with helpful staff. Difficult to access on the edge of the city, journey to and from the course impeded by city traffic. Bar prices reflect Surrey location.Reviewer Rating

Lovely course set high on the Downs
Really lovely but quite testing course, on the North Downs, north of Guildford. Greens were true, but not too quick (quick enough downhill!) and everywhere was in great condition. Staff in both the pro shop and the upstairs bar were great (prompt, friendly), and I will definitely re-visit.My only gripe is that the food was a bit slow on a not particularly busy Friday ; we ordered food at 12.55, knowing we had a 1.45 tee off. Food arrived at 1.35pm so we had to bolt it down and play. Notwithstanding that the course is a gem and I would really recommend it.

New Milford Layout
The new Milford layout is worth a look if you've not played it yet. The holes over the road have been closed and four new holes created. Milford isn't a long course but the rough ad bunkers can provide a test. The greens were very good when we played. Due to Covid no facilities other than the course were open.Reviewer Rating
