Golf Day
From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel genuinely welcome and went above and beyond to make sure we were well looked after throughout our visit.The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and clearly take great pride in creating a great experience for everyone who comes through the doors. Nothing felt like too much trouble, even when I made a couple of last minute requests and it really made the whole day relaxed and enjoyable.
A big thank you to Vera for looking after us so well – we’ll definitely be back and would happily recommend Essendon Golf Course to anyone looking to book a Society Day.

Awful condition
The course was branded as one of the top 10 in Hertfordshire. It was expensive. In summary the course was the wettest underfoot I have played on in 30 years. The course should have been shut. Everywhere was that bad we walked in after 14 holes. Something we have never done. Really disappointed and will not be going back.Reviewer Rating

Nice course - worth a visit
Nice course in good condition, although playing preferred lies at the moment. Greens not easy, and varying speeds. Nice layout with some attractive fairways.Reviewer Rating

Annual day out disaster
If you can carry the ball 200 yards do not play this gaff, you will hit a good shot down the middle over a blind ridge where you ball will be in a man made ditch that you are unaware of. Mickey Mouse course (in terrible condition due to the warm weather but they can’t help that).There is no obvious way to mange your game around here, absolute biff track.
We paid £100 for this nonsense, worst ‘annual day out’ ever

Definitely worth a visit
Old course played. Very enjoyable course, nicely laid out, very attractive views from tee boxes. Greens excellent condition, very fast initially, rain slowed them down a bit later on. Fairways a bit bare in places, common fault this summer. Possibly consider pick and place. Staff excellent. Really helpful and ensured everything ran smooth.Reviewer Rating

Drive well and score!
Had played the New Course once before - this time conditions following heavy rain were very different but enjoyable nevertheless. Well drained ensured limited standing water and although plenty of water underfoot we had a highly enjoyable Threeball. Testimony to a high standard of maintenance and quality of Essendon generally - will be returning soon and play the Old Course as well as the New again!Reviewer Rating

Over priced!!!
The green fee should be £30. Not worth the trip! Welwyn Garden Golf Club+mill Green is much better!Reviewer Rating
