The course was rain affected

disappointingly the course was affected by a seriously wet period so 18 temp greens. Well done for keeping the course open vut I am unable to give a full export as not putting challenge to shout about.
Would play again In more favourable conditions.

Beautiful Course

The course is over various valleys, so expect to be playing uphill, downhill & across slopes. It looks stunning and has great viewes out.

It can be confusing as a first timer to know where to go next but fortunately everyone was very helpful in pointing us in the right directions.

The rough is fairly punishing we found - especially with the leaves making it hard to find your ball!
I cant wait to come back and play it again though.

Give it a go for sure!

This is a course worth playing without a doubt. There are a lot of negative reviews about the greens which is fair however, they are making a come back and it's still worth playing especially if you're a 2 putt player! Wonderful creative course to really test your skill! Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Give it a go.

North Downs is a wonderful course, not long, with well maintained fairways & superb greens. It's more of a challenge than at first realised two sides to the course giving wonderful views. The club house is a very pleasant place to eat well priced & good food. A 4 ball with a coffee, bacon sandwich after 7 holes. & a beer to finish with for £25 each is a fair price. Friendly golfers make North Downs Golf club a place to visit.

Nice to come back and looking good

Rough was wet and long before you got to fairways but overall not penal. Fairways good, tees were a bit worn. Greens were slowish but with this amount of rain, what do you expect..

Hello Darren,
Thank you for your review and feedback -with our practice facilities we do struggle for spare land - we do offer a chipping practice area between the 6th and 7th Hole. Get Golfing continue to invest in the club as we are a not for profit organisation with 3 greens having new drainage put in! Hope to see you again soon.

Slow greens and GUR Bunkers

Didn't go in any bunkers but all bar a couple had water in them. Greens reseptive if coming from a height but still ran on if low. Good day putting and 2nd 9 got driving under control but damage was done on 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th and especially on 9th yet again. This time hit left , hit tree came out, skipped on path, hit bush, shot back and ......lost! Emotional roller coaster.

Hello Mark,
Thank you for your review. With 50mm of rain the previous night the bunkers were in GUR until the water level reduced. Our team worked hard and managed to get them back in play for the next day. Good to see you back at the club on hopefully with some more settled weather!
