What the club says: The Kendleshire is a beautifully conditioned golf course that has hosted three EuroPro Tour events.
The Hollows & Ruffet Courses were opened in the summer of 1997 to much acclaim. Designed by Adrian Stiff, the courses were set into the rolling Frome valley with plenty of water and a thrilling combination of pretty holes from the forgiving to the downright challenging. In the summer of 2002 the two courses were joined by the Badminton Course, designed by Peter McEvoy to follow the same lines but with his very own twist.
Each of the courses has its own stand-out holes, and when played in any combination offer the visiting golfer just as much enjoyment as the home one. The white tees provide a very stern test, however from the yellow posts there are plenty of pars and birdies to be had.

Great Course
A very challenging course for us high handicappers. We played holes 19-27 & 1-9 The walk to the 19th tee from the clubhouse was about 1Km! The signage throughout the Badminton Course (19-27) was extremely poor to non existent and we were constantly looking for the next tee. The Willows (1-9) was much better. overall we really enjoyed the courseReviewer Rating

No Signage
The course itself and club facilities where great - my big gripe was the awful lack of signage for guests whom don't know their way around the course. The walk to the Badminton course is a good 10 minutes from the club house and the lack of signage made our walk 20 minutes.this was the same for then finding the start of the the Hollows course. And a course guide would also of been helpful but again they didn't have one. For a club that seems to encourage societies it really lets itself down in helping people who are not playing with members.

I played the Hollows-Ruffet combination which was the original main course.Modern US-style course with water in play on several holes, surrounded by wooden sleepers.... think 17th @ Sawgrass! Fun course to play & great condition. Good finishing hole with a severely undulating green in front of the clubhouse to concentrate the mind!

On arrival staff were friendly and I was received well. Bacon bap to start was very good. On the whole the course was laid out and tended well with some challenging holes. Take some extra balls if your direction is not that accurate as the water obstacles and bushes will steal them from you and hide them rather well. There may be a slight delay where the two nine holes courses meet however it was a very good days golf. Well worth a visit.
