Needs some TLC

We thought the place was scruffy and needed some serious maintenance. Far too much clover and uncontrolled rough.

Poor condition - needs a lot spent

Despite a nice location and a relatively nice clubhouse , course is in really poor condition. Greens are okay but the tees are a disgrace ( White 3rd is like something from a farmyard ). Fairways not much better.
I’ve never seen so many weeds in my life.
There are some nice holes but it is just ruined by lack of investment and any/good greenkeeping. I think someone spending too much time on the horses/ owners club rather than the golf.

I was that unimpressed I gave up after 13 holes (10th hole closed so only 17 open) only to find the fancy looking bar closed… At 6:30 pm that’s not good enough.

This course needs a lot of money spending on it to bring it up to scratch and then it probably has some potential . Can’t see ever visiting in the near future even if it was free. Disappointing as live local.

If you’re in this area and better to play Broadway, Cleeve , or even travel down to Painswick. Avoid !

Such a shame!

The course is part building site with wide muddy trenches across some fairways. Such a shame as this was a great course previously that was playable all year round. Now very rough around the edges with the new holes in the worst condition! Won't be going back any time soon!

In decline

I have played this course numerous times over the years and it has been good value for money in the past and a fair test....nothing exciting. However with this visit there has been an obvious decline in the course maintenance. The tees are a disgrace with only the greens appearing to be maintained. Avoid until vast improvement.

Rolling Hills, Superb Views

Played here on a warm, sunny day. It's uphill & down dale, and it was a pretty strenuous walk. Some of the views are outstanding, and several very challenging holes. Apparently it it up for sale, and there was sadly, an air of not quite being up to scratch. Lots of uncut rough areas, and weeds on the fairways, which should have been sorted. Some of the fairways were a bit ropey - apparently a hangover from last year's very hot weather. If this place was really well maintained it would merit a "very good". It'll be interesting to see how it pans out. At the moment it is not somewhere I would rush back to, given the number of terrific other courses available at similar prices around that area.

Haven't played this course since before Covid and there are new owners of the club, who are involved in horses. A lot of work has been done to change and add new holes and a gallop all the way through the course, one hole has been removed a some stables have replaced it. The work has not bedded in too well and there are a lot of scruffy holes. Having said that, the greens were immaculate except for 2 of the new ones which were not up to standard. Fairways great and also bunkers had lots of sand in them. Views fabulous but rather strange having horses run by as you are playing your shots. Members very friendly and pace of play good. Did not stay for food as the clubhouse menu was not your normal golfers breakfast etc and a bit pricey

First time playing the course. My understanding is that the course has recently changed ownership & there?s clearly some work that needs doing & that appears to be underway. The greens were quick & true, albeit a little patchy in places & the tee boxes need some attention. However this didn't distract from a very enjoyable round, on a very scenic course. All Of the staff were friendly & welcoming.

Needs improvement

The greens were very good at Naunton but the tee boxes and the fairways needed a lot of attention. Little to no grass on both tee boxes and fairways. Thebgrass that was on the fairway was far to long and was almost like playing in the rough in places. The food and hospitality on the other hand was brilliant.

(Round played: Aug 2018 - Score: 91 Handicap: 20.3)
