As I have promised to play the course again and this time I have paid my Greenfee. Well when I played in April last there's no comparison what amazing job they have done from the bunkers to the green's. Great job ???? well done it's all in all in great condition thanks.In the middle of a busy town a little tranquility.

Brilliant!
Fantastic course, great greens all for £25 - a steal. Will be back. The old established layout is tight and the greens are small but great variety of holes. Didn't wait to play a single shop. Pro very friendly.(Round played: Sep 2021 - Score: 83 Handicap: 20.2)

sub 3 hour rounds abound
I am a member here and I probably pick times that are less popular but I always get 18 holes in here within 3 hours.I have played every course in Northamptonshire and I can't think of any other course that can boast that.
in these times of penalising slow play this course solves it without really trying.

A jewel in the middle of Northampton
Beautiful course with lots of trees. Greens in beautiful condition, fast but with many undulations. Very tricky. First time we've played there and look forward to the next round when hopefully I will play it better. Nice bar and food good(Round played: May 2019 - Score: 130 Handicap: 36.8)

Best kept course
A true gem here in Northamptonshire. Tight fairways challenge your accuracy, greens to hone your judgement skills ( who needs a flat surface) . View the course flyover on the website you will want to play . Good clubhouse for your event, and a half way house too.(Round played: Jun 2017 - Score: 117 Handicap: 12.9)

As a former member I can thoroughly recommend this course.
Playing straight is the order of the day and whilst it is not long the course is punishing for those who can't keep it down the middle
The greens are outstanding as are the club house and facilities in general

We play at KGC on a regular basis I must say it has improved, but for a parkland golf course you should be able to get the course ready for the season/autumn.Just not nice to loose so many balls.
Then as we are paying a full greenfee,couldn't get anything to eat or drink in your clubhouse, only opened at11 we played at 10:30 and when we came back guess what it was closing at 3pm.
Greenstaff and Pros where pleasant

Played for the first time and enjoyed it immensely. The course is tight and a number of holes run very close to each other, but I think that makes it much more fun. Greens were in good condition and the course look great considering the weather.Reviewer Rating

I came across this little gem driving through Northampton, I asked if on the off chance if I could play as I didn't book, well : "what a nice greeting "The lovely lady in the Shop/Reception made my day and I have promised her to leave a great review, not only because she didn't charge me, because how they are doing a great job. As she has told me that the greens undergoing some maintenance work and they haven't been cut. Just wanted to say thank you Kingsthorpe for the great communication and you have a good set up there. I will be back as it is still early in the season and I loved the layout of the course. Well done ????

Deceptively hilly parkland course in the heart of Northampton. Not the longest but some challenging approaches and undulating greens make for a challenging round. Very enjoyable.

This was a decent course.Challenging greens and overall you needed to think about your game.
Some of the fairways were not in great condition.
But overall enjoyed the course.
Would be nice if the club house was still open at 8:30pm to get a post round drink!

Played here for the first time and thought it was a very well looked after course. Greens were in very good condition. The fairways were good to. A very tight course in places so you have to keep it straight and in play. A few short par 4's to tempt you to go for the green in 1. Will play here again.

Very friendly course and members, we pitched up to find ourselves teeing off behind a seniors match, one of the members approached us and proceeded to inform us that we were teeing off behind them(4 ball) and there were three more 4 balls in front of them. They suggested we go off the 10th as there was only a couple of 3 balls off there and we'd get held up less. This proved to be very good advice as we were not held up the whole way round despite only being a 2 ball. The greens were in excellent condition and very consistent, an very enjoyable round.
