Reviewed Aug 20 2020 by Andrew G - rated 4 out of 5 Great round
Finished in 3h7m which was pretty quick, course in good condition, rather dry. Ball ran forever.Shame the bar closes at 17:00, and the Pro Shop doesn't sell drinks or snacks.

Reviewed Aug 18 2020 by Marc A - rated 4 out of 5 Traditional South Downs Course
Great test of golf on a traditional downland course. Stunning views from most holes. A lot of effort is being put into this course from new owners post lockdown(Very noticeable work on good greens and surrounds bearing fruit having been left rundown) A little walked on by locals not sticking to paths but should improve as more regular golf traffic plays. Glad to have put this on my golf CV.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Apr 22 2020 by Marek L - rated 3 out of 5 One of the few course that are completely playable after the wet winte
Apart from 2 greens, the 5th and 16th, the course was fully opened and no real sign of the rain that had fallen. Mainly due to Chalky ground which drains exceptionally well. Considering the course was under threat of closure , together with Waterhall (which is now closed for good 31/3/20), the course was being well maintained. Greens were a little long but that is not a surprise considering the winter conditions. As long as it stays open this will be the obvious course to play if other courses are waterlogged.Course (layout/challlenge)

Damp dank day - we were warned the greens had been sanded but they played remarkably well under the circumstances.The course is in good condition throughout and we were off temporary tees.

Reviewed May 2 2018 by Mick P - rated 3 out of 5 Not bad for a popular course sandwiched between three communities, Hollingbury has had its fair share of locals vandalising the greens but there was no evidence of that on this particular day, all in all not bad..
