overpriced

Enjoyed the course. Some fun to play holes but this is really a £25 course at best.£50 is shocking. Quite scruffy in places. Have never played holes where i had to aim for area of green away from where green keeper was working, twice . They were not going to move and unfortunately they were working near the hole, so no birdies on them 2 holes. Staff friendly enough but so many more courses around offering far better value. Might play again if offering deals.

A COURSE IN DIRE NEED OF WATER - AND LOTS OF IT!

I played this course on Saturday, having played it for the first time in January and being generally impressed. However, following recent dry weather it is clear that this course is not being looked after. The greens were far too firm and bouncy - my playing partners struggled to stop the ball, particularly on the front 9. They resembled cricket pitches on some of the higher spots. They have recently been tined, but many holes on the green remain, presumably not filled in with sand! This made the surfaces hugely inconsistent. The tee boxes were dry, uneven, dusty and full of un-repaired divots on the par 3's.

A shame, because the layout is great, but some serious water is needed on this course for me to want to play it again. I hope that the club's management/greenkeepers reads this - as based on this experience we're unlikely to return again, solely as a result of conditioning of the course.

Fairways and greens ok, but not great. Nice treelined course, nice clubhouse. Beware the 14th...very tough.

Liked the course,friendly staff,good food, and that's where my gripe is (lunch),I've been on a personal challenge of losing weight,when I asked for a healthy option for my lunch I got told it was ok to have a cheat day,which I thought was a tad rude and unhelpful.

Great course but so slow

Redlibbets is an under-rated golf course in Kent, course is really varied and in very good condition it also represents value for money with the facilities also to a very high standard.

However the course management is pretty poor or at least certainly was when we played. Tee times are 8 minutes apart, which is tight, and often tee times are paired together with another group which in principal is fine however this isn't marshalled by a starter (usually) so as expected most golfers then split off into their own groups meaning the course is at some points playing two tee times every 8 minutes.
This for us left us waiting on every hole before walking off at 12.

As a course great it just needs to be managed better to ensure a speed of play.

a real gem in Kent's courses

Redlibbets course is very interesting, expecially the back nine. the greens are deceptively quick and you must take the slopes into consideration especially on downhill putts.
I was disappointed with the condition of the bunkers and especially the variations of amounts of sand from one bunker to another. Especially frustrating was hitting the hard rubber lining which sometimes was only a quarter of and inch under sand. The fairways were in good condition.

Hi Alfred, thanks for your review and we are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your recent comments. We have spent a vast amount of money on bunker renovations but take on board your comments regarding variations of amount of sand which is affected by heavy rain. The issue is being addressed. Hope to see you on site again soon

The course was in reasonable condition, greens could be better but I guess they get a lot of traffic, Tee boxes needed lots off work skidding around on sand doesn't help. Also a 5+hour round!

Hi Jim,

Thank you for your review. I am surprised with your feedback on our greens as we take great pride in the fact that they have been kept to a high standard even throughout the dry spell we have faced up until September.

You are correct that we are a popular course, being open to all can lead to a slower pace of play on occasions. I am pleased to confirm that we are addressing this situation by increasing our on course team. We are also working hard on the course and on the tee boxes, the sand that you mentioned is part of the recovery process for the tee boxes.

I hope you can join us at Redlibbets for another round to try our greens out again and enjoy a better paced round.

Thank you once again for your feedback.
