Royal Winchester Golf Course
I played at the Royal Winchester Golf Course earlier this year during a weekday. The weather was kind to us and the course was in general good shape. I must mention that the staff in both the Pro Shop and the Club house were fantastic, even if their prices were a bit on the high side.The course is a parkland style with very big fairways and not much rough and the ground staff do a good job, however the course itself was a bit on the boring side. If I was to describe the course design I would compare it to a magnolia paint, safe but boring. There were no memorable feature holes, the only thing that stuck in my mind was that you had to cross a live fairway to get from one hole to the next by peering around a hedge to see if there were any golfers on the tee box.
Pace of play was another concern, there were two of us in a buggy, but the round still took over 4 ½ hours to complete. The slow playing members, playing in groups of three did not allow us to play through, even when the opportunity arose.
The halfway hut was also disappointing and very costly as I found to my detriment as a small bag of crips (23g) labelled “not to be sold individually” cost an eye watering £1.75. I did mention this on my return to the club house, but they did not what to know what practices are carried out at the halfway hut, which is very concerning not just as the pricing level, but possibly no visibility at hygiene level?
Would I play here again, probably not as there are other courses such as Liphook, Blackmore, Hindhead, Hayling, etc that offer more features and a challenging course for the same pricing structure.

Course in great condition greens good fairways good bunkers ok, it's just the rough needs thinning out to enable you to find your ball, I know you shouldn't be in the rough but we are not all professionals

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
