Golf Society Day at Harleyford

We held a Charity Golf Society Day at Harleyford and raised money for 2 local schools with 44 players attending.

Harleyford (especially Peter) were very helpful, professional and accomodating during the build up to the day, and on the day the team at the club house really looked after us and made it a really special day.

Thanks again to all the team at Harleyford. if you are planning a society day this is a great place to hold it!

Tight, tricky and a little dangerous

The whole layout is amazing and beautiful. The shop and clubhouse are amazing as is the oractice facilities.

The course itself is a massive challenge if you've never played there before. There are a lot of dog legs and slopes on the fairways and a few blind tee shots but if you are playing well then you can score well but you'll need to think your way round. The fairways have had some work done so were a little rough in patches but the greens and the surrounds very top notch. The humps and bumps make you a bit weary on appraoch shots and the greens and true, fast and have slopes you never knew coul3d exist. Was a pleasure to play on greens like that.

Now to the dangerous bit a few of the greens and tees are very close and at some point acyually tee off over the previous green.

But as a whole I'd love to back when it is at it's best. Holes 7 and 10 are probably my best.

Good club but poor condition

We attended a charity golf day. The venue is well laid out with spacious bar and dining area and good changing rooms and showers. However the course was in poor condition with dry and bare patches on fairways and greens were inconsistent with different grasses causing poor travel and direction.

Nice course ; would like to play again

A interesting and quite challenging course, but with no water to worry about. Quite a few of the holes require thought, as they are either curved or dog legs, or downhill requiring a shot short to the green (or else you will run through). The Par 3's vary in difficulty (as they should) and the greens seemed pretty true and consistent (quite fast but not silly.) I played badly (blobbed the first, played the wrong ball on the second so blobbed that) and that's partly why I'd like to play again; knowing where you are going helps with club selection. Overall though a nice course, and a really interesting challenge with nice views. Clubhouse and Pro shop were welcoming..

Excellent course in great condition

Really interesting layout, not least because of the wooden sculptures dotted around. Condition was excellent and a couple of fun holes during the round. A little pricey and a shame that the pro shop seemed to have closed relatively early. The signage could have been more user -friendly in terms of direction around the course. Nice little halfway house to get a hot or cold drink and a snack (vending machines).

Great Course

Terrific Harleyford round of golf as usual yesterday with my son who plays scratch comps these days. \We love this place and play regularly. \The course is in great condition this year due to the rain. Also it’s nice to see the rough being cut back this week. \Two things would improve the course I think: \- A manned half-way house with hot snacks and drinks selection like we had in the past. \- Some streams/ponds/water hazards\We also used the club for a fantastic anniversary party and we moor the boat in Harleyford Marina.\It’s nice to see young players being encouraged again. \All good

Lovely course in great condition

As a high handicapper this course was quite tough for me, but that didn't stop me enjoying it. Well maintained and a good interesting layout. Tough greens, lots of slopes and borrows. Tall rough is best avoided as it's very hard to find a ball in there. Very enjoyable and a friendly club

Standards slipping

Despite the incredible amount of rainfall in August, I expected to still see good conditions at Harleyford... unfortunately the greens were all very bobbly and looked as though disease had taken over a number of them, and the fairways had a tinge of late autumn-ess to them with lots of dried mud, to the extent that I feel preferred lies should have been in play. The course itself is still a treat with few gimme holes and a great challenge, but the greens are what HGC is known for, and the greens are what's letting it down at the moment.

Overpriced poor condition golf course

Disappointed with this golf club, lovely layout but condition was very bad, patchy fairways and embarrassing greens. Very overpriced green fee for what should be a ‘pay and play’. Maybe worth £15 not £50. Field of a driving range.

Stunning course and home of Tyrrell Hatton

Harleyford is a hidden gem in Marlow, impeccable greens and fairways all year round, not a sign of winter mats or winter greens even is the wettest days of winter due to the clever course design which naturally drains.

The signature hole of 12 is a stunning and challenging PAR 3 and if you are lucky you might bump into Tyrrell Hatton as this is his home course when in the UK and I've been lucky enough to warm up with him on a chipping green a few times.

Awful experience

Chronologically, I started the day at the driving range, there were a variety of poor range balls and they were very much overpriced, if you pay for 25 balls, only 23 come out. I walked up to the driving range and it was effectively a field with very few targets (yardages on the post weren’t even accurate). The mats were rock solid and ‘stoney’ which I noticed caused damage to my irons. In addition, I couldn’t even hit driver because they don’t provide a rubber tee - you have to pay an extra £3 to borrow one. The chipping green was in poor condition, many divots taken out of the green and incredibly slow.

Proceeding onto the course, the fairways looked like the rough and the greens were painfully slow. One of the positives is that the design of the course is relatively pleasant, it’s a real shame that it’s not maintained by the green keepers. After a tedious front 9, the ‘newly renovated’ half way house contained two vending machines that didn’t take cash and the machine didn’t register my / my partner’s contactless cards. The back 9 was equally disappointing, poor condition and slow bobbly greens.

After the round, we went into the clubhouse to have a drink and a small meal. The menu was simply appalling, overpriced and lacked a variety of healthy options. For instance, we ordered a bowl of chips (£3) to share, they were completely undercooked - we had a couple each and left them. I ordered bangers and mash (£10), the sausages were clearly of poor quality and the mash was mediocre. My wife ordered a Caesar salad (£9) and she thought it was very much ‘average’.

To conclude, this was a dreadful experience, we had high expectations from their social media platform images as well as the gallery on the Harleyford website however this was completely unrepresentative of the reality of the course. I’m very disappointed by the range, the condition of the course, the greens, the clubhouse menu (variety and pricing).

Before paying for green fees or range tokens at this club, I’d strongly recommend having a look around the place - in order to know the lifeless reality of the club before spending money.

Thanks for the review. I am sorry that Harleyford didn't live up to your expectations. I was shocked to read this review as that is not what we expect our customers to experience. I would be grateful if you could get in contact to discuss improving your experience. There are a few things in your review that are factually incorrect so would relish the opportunity to get this rectified. I look forward to hearing from you shortly. The Harleyford Team.
