Good downland course, generally in good condition
Have played here a fair few times. Interesting layout with two slightly contrasting nines, the front is downland, the back os more parkland. Generally in good condition but crows have had their way with some areas of the fairways and greens needed a cut when I played. Very enjoyable place to play. Make sure you stay for a drink on the veranda. Great views.(Round played: Sep 2021 - Score: 77 Handicap: 3.5)

Great condition, tight and challenging
This is a tough golf course - you need to be very straight off the tee and solid with your putting to score well. Despite the greens having been hollow tined and scarified a couple of weeks earlier they were still firm and fast. The front nine is downland and the back is more parkland. All par 5s are reachable with two good shots and there are a good few risk-reward holes.(Round played: Sep 2019 - Score: 75 Handicap: 3.6)

Lovely established course with tricky greens. Clubhouse is a bit of a let down. Members are not the friendliest.

Very good course. Very well maintained and dries dramatically well. It is a good challenge without players spending half their time looking for balls. Lots of slopes. Greens in good condition. Three temporary greens. The first hole was out of commission due to maintenance. work on the green side bunker. As at most clubs at this time of the year some of the bunkers lacked sand which sometimes made life a bit difficult (the answer, of course, is don't go into them in the first place!). A very pleasant clubhouse with a good atmosphere about it. Pro very friendly - and a good sense of humour. Played 5th Feb 2013.

Challenging downland course, lush and green
I have played the Royal a few times over the years. It was in a very lush and green condition when played this time but it can be hard and fast if dry. Greens were a bit soft and were not rolling as well as they can. It is a challenging course with long par 3 holes and long par 4 holes that typically play into the wind. Great views and a lovely clubhouse.Reviewer Rating

Vastly improved
Reviewed this course a while ago and was disappointed with the condition, what a difference a couple of months makes, I was impressed with the quality of the course fairways are like walking on carpet, greens look nice and roll lovely, bunkers are a lot better, very impressive and apparently they have a really good new green keeper starting this week, looking forward to seeing what results he can bring to the courseReviewer Rating

Testing course
This is a course that is set out well and is very testing, the greens are nice but fast but the rest of the course is in a bad condition, bunkers are inconsistent and there is so much GUR around the course making it look poor, the facilities are good and the clubhouse is lovely and food is good, everyone is very friendly but the condition of the course lets it downReviewer Rating
