Starting to look overpriced
As a nomadic golfer, I have played The Rayleigh Club's east course on many occasions over the years. It's mainly for the pay and play brigade or players that find 5,500 yards plus to much.It's a decent test and has generally been in ok condition, but over the last couple of times I've played it, the greens are showing a far bit of wear and tear and are very bumpy. Now I guess you get what you pay for. But given a midweek round has gone up from ?15 pre pandemic (which was about right), to now ?20 it's looking overpriced for what it is. I know clubs have to make back their lost revenues, but they also need to take into account the quality of the course, otherwise sooner or later people are going to take their business elsewhere.

I played the course in early October and found the greens to be in excellent condition.
The tee boxes and fairways had improved greatly in the last few months, the new owner is visibly improving the overall quality of this enjoyable course.
I especially enjoyed the holes furthest from the clubhouse, while parring the picturesque final hole improved things. The food, staff and facilities are spot on.

Small but nicely formed
It's an OK course that makes you think on most holes. The ?20 green fee is justabout right in these current times but certainly no more. Due to its yardage
circa 4500 yards it means you can get round quickly and a good course to
sharpen up your game. The 6 minute intervals were too short as there was
a bit of bunching.

Since the new owner has taken over the club (previously Lords) the club house has been improved, bar menu is excellent, reasonably priced and well presented. The courses have improved in the last 6months beyond recognition,greens are excellent,fairways good and rough not too punishing, a most enjoyable round of golf, very helpful and pleasant and polite staff, you will do well to find a better all round club in Essex.

The course is tricky par 67. Course knowledge is preferable. Amenities are growing with a range, practise areas and the atmosphere is very good. Watch out for the society when HEART SX hosting their evenings as it can be very busy but its worth the sights......

It was disappointing to find that the 18th hole was closed today and not to have known about this until arriving at the tee. £1 off the green fee would have been a nice gesture.

We play most Wednesday?s on the East course, it has been waterlogged for much of the year so far. This week ( 3/4/24) they introduced temporary tees, by strimming an area in front of the proper ones. Not ideal when trying to play your tee shot.
Then they have the cheek to put up the senior rate to ?18 for a round.
Why don't they wait until the course is actually playable before putting prices up.

Ever improving
Since bunkers were reconstructed last year The Rayleigh Club course is a great course to play. Big hitters will love front 9 with visitors n shorter hitters preferring most scenic back 9. Very rarely closed due to great drainage.Reviewer Rating
