Reviewed Mar 31 2021 by Thomas Dege - rated 4 out of 5 Great Value for Money
If you don't want the pretentiousness, but do want the convenience and joy of a fun, relaxed 9 hole course then this is a great spot to come to if you live anywhere near Cheltenham / Gloucester. Cannot wait to play my first post-lockdown-3 game tomorrow. I hardly play anywhere else, and my mates love it too.. although we are rubbish. The greens are slow and play true making them forgiving, but you'll have your fun with the water and the woods. An amazing number of people I play with are caught out by the stream on the Par 5 5th hole and the Par 4 number 6. Hole 1 and 8 are your most likely Pars and 3 and 7 your most likely Birdie options. Enjoy your 7 shots on hole number 5.Course (layout/challlenge)

Don't waste your time and money here when for the same price you have courses which are 20 times better in the local area. This course is no more than a seaside pitch and putt and would do nothing to improve your golf.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Mar 13 2019 by Karl from Stroud - rated 5 out of 5 This is a very forgiving course with wide fairways and no sand. A few water jumps, dog legs, generally not very busy, and really well-maintained. A nice, friendly, social nine-hole course which is excellent for honing your skills without losing your balls!

Used to play on this course when I was a child, I can happily say that the level of improvement since then is impressive. The greens are a very high standard for a 9 hole pay and play, and the course in general is well kept. I’ll definitely be playing again.Course (layout/challlenge)
