What the club says: The course has been established for over 100 years and has always provided a challenge in a beautiful parkland setting. The holes meander 'on and on' as opposed to 'up and down' in a secluded way, framed by mature indigenous trees and wander back to the fully modernised traditional style Clubhouse.

Great course with very deceiving holes, only issue is the first cut of rough is too deep

Despite huge amounts of rain during the week and the round the course mainly drained well and greens were good if a little slow. Always a great course.

Really enjoyed it. Some of the par 4s could be par 5s. Tight off the tee. Great greens

Great course in good conditon except for a few patches. Challenging in parts and some great holes, especially the 18th over the river.

There's a lot to like about this course. The course sets a number of tests but often forgives wayward driving. The setting is excellent with wonderful views over Bradgate Park. The pro shop and club staff are extremely helpful and the bar food was good. I spent a very enjoyable afternoon here.

Good greens considering the rain we had before, fairways in good conditions. Greens are small targets, a very fair challenge. Small putting green to practice, no ther facilities. Price is far too steep unless you are in a society like we were.

This has got to be in my top 3 courses in England, a good test for any Golfer plenty of long Par 4's. What I like about this place is, it's always in good condition & you can play there almost whenever you want, I can't understand why it's never busy. Anybody looking for a game whilst in the Leicestershire area, this Course is a must.

After doing a lot of work on the Drainage and the Greens over the last year, the course is now looking fantastic and playing even better. The new bunkering on the 18th green really adds to the hole. A joy to play.

Having played at Rothley Park a couple of times now I felt it fair to give the course a much deserved review.
This course is an excellent test of golf with holes that challenge the entire spectrum of handicaps.
The course offers the low handicapper a few birdie chances, but the twist of this course is that you can just as easily rack up a 7 or more!
The greens are true and run at a pretty quick speed (I would guess at circa 10 on a stimp meter!)
However, there is just one minor downside to this course (which has stopped me giving it 9/10) and that is the condition of the tees. They appeared not to have been cut for at least 3/4 days. They were, to be blunt, extremely scruffy, which given the manicured condition of the rest of the course did let it down and rather badly.
PLEASE dont let that put you off playing here, it is a fine course for all levels and one that you will enjoy. The staff and members are very friendly as well, which always put one in a better frame of mind when goinjg out to play.
