Reviewed Aug 9 2021 by Michael H - rated 5 out of 5 Loved everything about the course, heathland with elevation changes. Very pretty surroundings, good value too at £55 on a sunday afternoon.

Reviewed Mar 18 2020 by Matt H - rated 5 out of 5 Best in Suffolk
Personally feel Purdis is the best course in Suffolk.The layout is fantastic, the removal of tree has been a good decision to open it up and some of the views over other holes are great.
The condition is spot on and the new bunkers have really bedding in. It might not be the easiest course around but overlook the score and take the course for what it is, a stunning layout in pristine condition.

Reviewed Oct 27 2018 by Matt H - rated 5 out of 5 Gets better each time
Having recently carried out some work on the bunkers (new and old) this course gets better each time.Now a lot of trees have been removed it was a bit of a shock at first but as the round goes on you feel it makes such a positive impact on the course.
The course is tough, offline and you'll be in trouble. But the condition and layout is the best in Suffolk. Greens were running perfectly.

Played in the rain from start to finish but still a very enjoyable game. Fairways were still recovering from the dry spell in June/July but greens were in great condition.(Round played: Aug 2018 - Score: 76 Handicap: 9.3)

Purdis is a great course to play during winter as it drains and holds water very well. Greens always true and some very challenging holes.

Reviewed Jul 12 2016 by Matt H - rated 5 out of 5 Course, as always, in excellent condition. Lush fairways, perfect greens. Manicured bunkers all add to the experience of a true classic heathland course. Can be tight in places so higher handicap players expect to lose a couple of balls if your not straight!

Reviewed Feb 1 2015 by Matt H - rated 5 out of 5 Course is in fantastic condition considering the recent weather. Hold the water really well fairways are tip top. A couple of greens can hold water but to be expected but in general run really well even when sodden. Can only imagine how good they will be come the spring/summer.
A fair amount of heather and gorse round here so try your best to stay out if it.
Cant wait to head back!
