I am now a member of this club, they do make a lot of effort to keep the course in good condition, and it is nice to play on well kept greens. There is a water hazard on 10 of the holes, and in recent years they have spent a lot of money up grading the course and drainage.They also have marshals at peek times.

Reviewed Jul 2 2018 by Scott W - rated 3 out of 5 cheap as chips for twilight
18 hole course for £8.00 after 3pm. It`s a short course but there are still some tough holes. You can get round this course in 2 hours so it`s perfect for an evening of golf. People don`t mind letting you through which is always a big help.Greens are ok and the fairways are ok. It is the Rayleigh Clubs small practice course. I like the layout apart from back to back par 3`s on the16th and 17th. Only 100 yards each. Some blind holes to keep you on your game. I will play this course again and again. I use it a a confidence booster.

Reviewed Jun 22 2018 by Steve M - rated 4 out of 5 Good local course in Rayleigh
There are 2 courses at the Rayleigh club this review is for the East course.The East Course is well maintained and the greens are good if a little long.
It is not particularly hard or challenging except for a couple of holes.
It is a shame there are so many par 3?s and only 1 par 5 which is a good hole.
Overall and enjoyable course but not too challenging
