I know we're just coming out of the winter months but tee boxes were in a terrible state - a lot of bare mud patches, hardly any grass, a lot of sand and you couldn't get a level stance on many of them. The fairways ranged from bald to lumpy and the 18th was simply mud; no grass to play from and not easy on a par 5 to be trying to hit a 3 wood off mud. The greens were lumpy, covered in sand and must have added a minimum of 6 shots to our rounds thanks to untrue bobbling putts.
The clubhouse on the Cray course is based in 1976 with shoddy facilities that just seem to be getting worse, and I'm no golfing snob by any means but allowing people to play in jeans and trainers just doesn't do the club any favours.
For the green fee of £28 you'd expect some course maintenance but this place just seems to be taking your money and going downhill fast. Shan't be back in a hurry.

Fairways: average
Greens: Poor (sand on every one)
Green fees should definately be reduced during winter as the greens cost me at least 5 shots due them being so sandy and gritty.
I was also warned by a member never to leave clubs unattended as pikey's on quad bikes steel them if left alone!
Have played this course in summer before where the £28 green fee is justified.
Plenty of other courses worth playing which are better and cheaper.

A bit repetitive
Cray Valley's par 4's are quite monotonous and repetitive.The par 3's are more interesting, the placement of par 3's so close together makes for alot of waiting around on the tees.

Good course once ! Avoid.
OK so recent heatwave has made lots of courses baked, Cray is brown with hard earth. Greens had holes in them that showed no sign of being repaired and had obviously been there for some time.One of the hottest days of the year teed off at 11.40. got in about 3.20 only to find food and drink bar closed at 3.15!
Also Ruxley course appeared closed, driving range closed overall disappointing. Avoid there are better courses available at similar price.
