Was a good round although playing with a female was tough as some ladies tee were missing. A lot of people oblivious to golf going on around the course too.

A very interesting course, like other reviews have mentioned there are a number of great blind holes, though in our opinion they would benefit from bells on some of these; it was impossible to know whether those in front had cleared. During our round we experienced walkers, dogs, cyclists and horse riders on the course, so we were left waiting on some tee's until they were out of sight! Even though it was short, the course was not easy to follow, so the plan provided by the Pro was invaluable! The greens were very slow, and were not over generous in size. Personally, due to the quirkiness of the course, I would recommend giving Painswick a try (strategic layout, you could leave your driver at home); however it may not suit everyone. Finally, the members were very friendly and made us feel very welcome, overall an enjoyable day with unbelievable views.

Course is a lot of fun, you must be accurate to get around well here. Unfortunately the clubhouse didn't add match the course. There was no-one in the proshop when I finished, and I wanted to purchase some stuff from there. Also I then went into the restaurant and waited for a long time to be served when there was only three people around. I gave up in the end, shame, I would have spent quite a bit of money on balls, a glove and lunch.

Interesting short course where accuracy is important, to much left or right or to much club will get you in loads of trouble!

Very unusual course, lots of criss crossing fairways, and blind flags, very hilly and a difficult walk. Overall enjoyed the course as it was so unusual

Return to a favorite...quirky and sometimes frustrating but always an enjoyable challenge. In good winter condition but teeing off mats was a disappointment.

quirky to the extreme

i've played Painswick twice in 2022, and i'd recommend it to anyone - don't assume that because the course is short it's easy, it's so easy to get into trouble. Main advice - don't think about pushing a trolley.

Wow what views!

A tough course it has to be said, tests accuracy very sternly.
A tough walk but well worth it, a great place to play a wonderful round.

I loved it!

I can see this course being like marmite, you'll love it or hate it. I loved it!
Quirky doesn't come close, it's an unbelievable mix of holes, yes it's short, yes there are several blind shots, but the undulations, quarries & fort are what makes the course.
Superb views all round, especially off the 6th.
I printed off the hole descriptions from the web & they definitely helped.
The members & the guys in the clubhouse were all really friendly.
The current let down is the greens, they died off in the summer so they've had to re-seed them all & some of the tee boxes need a mow. But they are minor quibbles from a fantastic experience.
Gary G's long summary of the course is absolutely bob on.

Awesome course

It is a lovely course but the hot summer has baked it badly. It is playing more like crazy golf than actual golf at the moment. The greens need watering with large areas of bare or patchy putting surface and the fairways are like concrete so even a good tee shot will end up in the rough...

If you want to play golf here personally I would wait unti we have rain. That said the local competition was very kind in letting us go first.

It is a good value course if you book from teeofftimes, no one was there to meet us but you can get your score cards from inside the club house.
