What the club says: Hainault Golf Course actually consists of two 18 hole courses, both are spectacular.
The Upper Course
This course hugs the hillside closest to the country park. The course has tighter fairways and is more hilly than the lower course. Although it is shorter and has a par 70, the upper course is still a very good test and will punish the wayward golfer.
The Lower Course
This course hosted the 2003 Essex Amateur Championships final and was the first pay and play golf course to be awarded such a prestigious accolade. The course is a par 72 and is a very good test of the long hitter, rewarding accurate long tee shots, but punishing poor course strategy, beware not to be tempted to mimic Tiger!

Big improvement
The layout of both courses are excellent although in the past the conditions haven?t been great. Since the new owners have taken over this has changed and is getting better all the time. The greens are in excellent condition despite the weather we have been getting recently. It?s been years since I?ve seen the 14th tee (top course) playable. Heads up for Golfshake, the S.I?s have been changed.

absolute shambles
Played on Sat the 31st of Oct, paid full price for the old course. Fairways were woeful and under water greens. Not looked after by staff, upon finishing I informed them of the condition of the course however staff members were rude and didn't want to know. Absolute shambles, will never play there again








Brad Fenwick
Brilliant condition. Exceptional day for the 4 of us. Course was perfect the best I have seen it in years. Food in restaurant was great as well.








Mark Peterson
Fantastic condition. I played here last month and the turn around is unbelievable. Probably the best greens in Essex. Outstanding. 5stars*****

















Awful condition
The course is in shocking condition. I found out that their mower is broken so they cannot cut the fairways. This has been the case for 2 weeks. I mean surely they should have more than one? Also the fairways and rough are full of uneven lies and bare patches. The tees didn?t have grass on them and are uneven. The first tee on the bottom course is the most unbelievable tee I have ever seen! Not one blade of grass just dry dirt. They also charge full price!








Liam
Absolute joke terrible condition will not return do not play here! Much better options around the area








Bad condition
Used to be a nice place now it’s neglected and in terrible condition sad really








Terrible
The course is in terrible condition and the club still charge full value it is a rip off








Awful condition
Awful condition! No grass on tees. Fairways not cut for two weeks toilets disgusting bald patches all over fairways








Very unfriendly proshop









Nice course


















Nice Course
Lovely course, shame the guy in the pro shop was rude and particularly unhelpful. Have heard that the staff are rude from others who have played it but I didn?t believe it. Until I experienced it my self!








WORTH PLACE TO PLAY









Hainault Lower Course
Fantastic course worth visiting.








Both course are great









Good value course
Played a twilight round £15 after 2pm, very good value for money even thought greens had been heavily sanded.(Round played: Aug 2020 - Score: 93 Handicap: 20.4)
