Course well worth the visit but rest of the club leaves a lot to be desired. Pro shop is without doubt the most unwelcoming and unhelpful I have ever been to. Bar was great but a bit like being in a Witherspoons pub

Old Thorns pro shop are very unwelcoming. On top of this they 'accept' greenfree vouchers, but even though they quote you in 2 separate phone calls £25pp, they still insisted on charging us £30pp. We could have paid £30pp as we happened to have booked a twilight tee time anyway without our greenfree voucher, but they insisted on taking it. £5pp or a greenfree voucher isn't a huge amount - but the principle and also their attitude was second to everyone! Having said that the course was very good. Not going back in a hurry though!

Great course well worth a

Unfortunately the course was suffering from the very wet weather we have experienced this year but it was playable unlike some course in our area.The fairways had been cut and the greens were in a reasonable conditions.

Good course

Bit wetter than expected and with some tees favourably brought forward but overall in pretty good nick considering the weather. Tougher couse than used to but reflected in the 3 extra shots it gave most of us.
We had a voucher for a 4ball, otherwise would have been very expensive at £50.

Good hotel, course needs some work

Lovely layout but it's a long, hilly walk. The greens are quick but need care because they're all tricky. Some (the 15th in particular) have ridiculous slopes on them.
The bunkers are poor as are several tee boxes. One is an almost permanent temp tee, even in August!
The hotel is large, but doesn't feel crowded. The food is good. The sports bar is expensive.
There are better resort courses, Belton Woods and Forest of Arden come immediately to mind.

Great Course

Really nice course with some lovely looking holes. Scenery is very nice.
Driving range is very small and basic and you can't use woods.

Good value for money if you go with twilight rate. Course not in the best condition and feel it could be better given the rest of the facilities but still a decent challenge with some great views and tricky holes to navigate.

Good for weekend break

Went here for a weekend break and enjoyed it. The course was good, although I think the tees needed work. There are some lovely holes on the course and I think it would be great to play it in summer with the greens in perfect conditions as the slopes on some of them would be interesting. Food was good in the hotel and the sports bar had plenty of room to watch sport.
Negatives would be that it is a single course location and there isn't room for a full driving range so that would place it mid level rather than at the top of the places to stay for a golf break.

Enjoyable 2 rounds over 2 days in April '17. Very friendly staff, buggy hire was a bit expensive. 1 temporary green (a shame), All the greens were fair to middling, but this may improve over Spring and Summer.
