So Confusing but Nice course....
Five of us played today for our first time at Ilford GC. No clubhouse facilities, no marshalling and basically just the members on the course.Great shorter course in excellent condition considering that most of Ilford were underwater about two weeks ago.
As we looked a little lost after going over a footbridge over a busy dual carriageway a couple of the members kindly directed to the starting holes and talked us through the first three holes.
The major feedback really is the layout of the course is very very confusing, any Garmin products were picking up the wrong hole and frankly so of it on a busy day (this was not thankfully) would have been dangerous in the hands of the wrong golfers.
We will be back now we know what we are doing but hopefully a clubhouse facilty will enhance the experience.

Compact short course
Compact course with a couple of crossover fairways, short and tight in places. Greens very true but on the slow side.(Round played: Sep 2019 - Score: 87 Handicap: 18.4)

Lovely course easily accessible from London and Essex. Friendly pro shop and clubhouse serving food.
Recommend for beginners as not too long yet tricky enough to challenge those with lower handicaps.

The course has improved immensely in the last 5 years, greens have lovely
undulations with lush fairways. Needs to be updated on the GPS system

This is a real gem of a course in inner London. Although it;s not the longest course and there aren't not too many very difficult holes, the course is kept in really great condition most of the year around (Only gets a little yellow after long periods of hot weather) Absolute bargain round for the price you pay and they have very friendly staff.
I think this is a great course for all levels of golfer, but especially for the 18 - 27 handicap golfers.

First time on the course, was very wet but greens played well. Very narrow and if busy then I could imagine a bit hairy as you are driving over other people's fairways.
Nice and cheap as only £10 midweek round, will come back again but when less wet.

This is an excellent course , kept in very good condition , there are some holes that cross , there's a map on the back of the scorecard and using it I had no problem navigating around , not to long but requiring accuracy and with a couple of tee shots and one second or third shot over a river it's quite exciting to play , it cost a tenner on a weekday which is an absolute bargain , the greens are the best around here , lovely and true runnng

Great golf course with some real challenging holes, can't believe it's only £10 during the week and £15 on the weekend. Much better than other local courses and cheaper! Great pro shop with lots of stock and a friendly professional, well worth a game.

As you turn up to this course you cant help but think what the hell you've let yourself in for. The Bar looks like a house on a row of a busy street. But dont let this fool you. There is parking round the back of a row of houses and the pro shop is in what looks like a little cabin, however is quite big and well stocked.Even before you get to the course you have to go over a bridge and cross the A406 but what greets you the other side is like something from a different world.
Surrounded by the motorway and tall buildings you'll soon forget about whats around you and concentrate on what is a small, compact but wonderful test of golf.
Small greens, tight fairways lay ahead with short par 4's making you want to give it a bash but beware the bunkers and long rough, anything not straight will get punished.
The greens themselves are in great condition too. Seem to be well looked after.
In places it may be difficult to find your way around from green to tee and 2 or 3 holes have blind shots, either off the tee or onto the green, but id love to go back at some point and give it another crack.
All in all a good day out.
