A fantastically beautiful course with hills, trees and testing dog leg shaped holes. Fairways were immaculate greens were very quick and the whole course set up really make you think and plan your shots. Junior tees need to be better highlighted as they seemed a hazardous afterthought in middle of the fairways.

Along with The Warwickshire and Kenilworth, this is among the best courses in Warwickshire. Every hole a different test. The signature 11th is the best par 3 hole I've ever played. Great twilight offer of £25 after 3pm at the moment.

Played here with a golf society on a very busy day but course in excellent condition and I happened to win so that was a bonus even though I lost four shots off of my society handicap. Any one who visits here has to be fit or should hire a buggy if they have walking difficulties.

Did not play particularly well on this course, nice setting though and greens in good condition. Fairways were a bit dry and worn, they must have had a dry summer hence the dry patches in places but cannot fault the greens as difficult as they were they still played well.

Made our 4th society visit here last week and the course was as good as ever and in fantastic condition. A really nice course with some great holes. Booked breakfast before our round and almost everybody in our group of 18 commented on how good it was.

As an ex member of this course I feel that too much money has been sent to suit the female members. Too many trees cut down, too many bushes thinned out. Planned bedding areas around 1st and 10th would be a waste of money, spend it on the course instead please.

I agree with the previous review, that this course is a friendly members club. The gentleman behind the counter in the pro shop is a very nice man. He was extremely helpful.
We had a breakfast to start with and this was very good.
We walked the course and the weather was very hot.
The tees again, were a let down, too much sloping not enough flat ones.
The fairways were in very good condition but the greens were a significant let down. The main reason for this was that there seems to be many different types of grass in the greens, so the ball never ran true. The greens were big but if they don't run true, then you have wasted your round. I normally average about 1 and half rounds a hole, I think my putting on these greens probably justified half of my rounds score.
Therefore, I need to ask myself the same questions I asked about Ingon Manor:
Overall, was this course worth a price tag of £40?....No!
Did the course live up to its recommended reputation? .....No
Would I play there again?.....No
To me, it is a course that has a good standing from the time you drive in, to the time you stand on the 1st green. Unfortunately, after that, you start to feel let down. The greens and tees are the start of every round and they both need to be a lot better. The course itself, is a very pretty but with a puzzling layout. There needs to be much better signage from each hole to the next. It just looks like the course has had a change of heart with the order of the holes. You are sure the next hole is beside you but you then have to walk quite a way to.
In conclusion, If you want to play a pleasant course, this is for you. If you want to play a frustrating course that will help your handicap go higher, then this course is for you.
Sorry but this is mine and my playing partners conclusion on what should have been a much better managed course.

This is a very friendly members club with good facilities. The clubhouse is modern and fairly spacious. The practice facilities while being a bit spread out - the practice ground is a 2-minute drive away from the clubhouse - give an opportunity to practice all aspects of the game. the professional has just opened an indoor centre as well - as yet untried by the author!
the course has a bit of everything - undulating and flat holes - staright and dog-legs. There is some water, but not enough to put off the higher handicappers.
The course is well-maintained, with good greens that putt fair and true.
Green fees are reasonably priced and I would recommedn this course to anyone who while in the area fancies a game of golf that will test you but not like Augusta!
I chose this as my home club over all the others in the area for 3 main reasons
1) the LACK of requirements to book a tee-time as a member.
2) The facilities clubhouse & practice
3) The ambience of the club. (The members are very friendly).
If the course were to be more tree-lined then i would give it 9.
All sceptics, please note that I'm a fussy so and so when it comes to my choice of golf club!
