What the club says: Pyrford is set in an area of outstanding natural beauty and wildlife. Ringed by magnificent woodland the fairways weave between sculptured mounds and the 23 acres of lakes, fringed with bulrushes, reeds and lilies, give the course its distinctive and unique characteristic with water ever present.

The 6,230 yard course is separated into 2 loops providing a choice of starting positions. Every hole is different and whilst the course may not be the longest by today’s modern designs a good score will require careful strategy and use of every club in your bag. The best players may well be tempted to take on the challenge of longer carries yet the design gives the less experienced player a safer and more productive route.

Different combinations of tee positions provide a challenge for players of all abilities and the unique design ensures no two rounds are the same.

Not for the faint hearted…

… or the mid to high handicapper! It has to be said that this is a beautiful looking course, from the drive in to the well appointed and tastefully redecorated clubhouse. The staff are very helpful and couldn’t be friendlier (on what was my first visit). \\The practice facility is ‘modest’ but the mats look new and its irons only. It’s fine for a warm up. The course is well signposted and paths are good - I’ve played far more expensive courses in a lot worse shape, so congratulations to the staff at Pyrford. \\The course itself isn’t long, bar a couple of holes you could probably leave the driver in the car. The fairways are in good shape but show a lot of use in places, tee boxes likewise. Heavy rain when I played meant that there was standing water in places, not sure how it copes in prolonged wet weather. Greens are good for the most part, one or two patchy places and bobbles. \\Helpfully the rough was down at the moment, which is a mercy as fairways can be narrow. Given the amount of water hazards on this course, if the rough is up as well then this would be a perilous course for all but the most accurate. On that note - for me as a mid handicapper I think the design is just too much water hazard (feels like it’s water on 3/4 of all holes). Combined with a lot of bunkering the balance of risk/reward for good but even slightly off centre shots feels tough. Playing off 18 I still shot my handicap but lost a few balls in the process. Feels a little bit too hard work to be enjoyable unless you have super accurate iron play. Some nice par 3s keep you interested though. \\Overall this is a pretty and well maintained course and the staff and management should take a lot of credit for making it a must play course. I couldn’t be a member here as it just doesn’t suit my game but I can understand why plenty are. Definitely give this a go - at least once. Oh, and take a LOT of spare balls…\

Despite they seem to be plenty of staff milling around the service was quite slow and to cap it all off having been kept waiting on breakfast it turned up cold and the majority of players left most of it if not all in some cases.
The course itself was satisfactory but not brilliant which was a bit disappointing as I've played it in the past and enjoyed it immensely.

The course was absolutely perfect in every way. From the well-maintained fairways to the challenging but fair greens, every detail was thoughtfully designed to provide an exceptional golfing experience. The layout was both scenic and strategically interesting, keeping me engaged throughout the entire round. The staff was friendly and helpful, adding to the overall positive atmosphere. I was thoroughly impressed and very satisfied with the experience. It’s a course I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch day of golf. I can't wait to return!v

Stunning

What a golf course. It's beautiful and offers a different sort of challenge to lots of local courses as it's much tighter and with a lot of water. You don't need to hit long but game management needs to be on point. Greens in excellent condition! Even the food afterwards on a gorgeous terrace was brilliant. My only reasons for scoring down are that the practice area is poor and it's ?67 for a visitor to play at the weekend.
