What the club says: Designed in 1913 by Tom Simpson and Herbert Fowler, the undulating ground has been used well to provide a challenge on every fairway and green. The course snakes through mature oaks and occasionally crosses ravines, so club selection is always important to get exactly the right distance. A varied course where every hole is different

Some generous fairways accommodate all levels of handicap golf and our rough will penalise you with a restricted shot, not necessarily a lost ball.

First time I've played there but thought that greens were in fantastic condition with the putts running true. Fairways were dry and bunkers were variable with most too firm and lacking in sand. Quite a few of the par 4s had a similar feel to them.

The course still had winter mats in play on a lot of the holes and the greens were very firm so required quality approach shots in order to hold the greens.

Awful

Started off with a rude member who was angry a society was playing his course! Wish i could have seen him after as i would have told him he is welcome to his course as it was awful. 16 tee?s off mats. 2 temporary greens. Fairways poor(playing off mud) and greens sodden and ball bounced instead of rolled.

Very wet

Possibly the wettest and muddiest course I've played for some time. Leaves are a major problem, despite the greenstaff being out with a blower. To think that we haven't had that much rain and the trees are actually holding their leaves, I wouldn't want to be playing here in a couple of weeks time. All of the above contributed to a very slow round, with plenty of ball searching going on.
That said it really is a good course, just play here in the summer.

Challenging, interesting course

Played a twilight round on a weekday. Fine conditions and course very well maintained. Challenging layout with plenty of interesting holes, and ups and downs. You are never far from trouble - lots of places to lose your ball - definitely a premium on hitting it straight. And the undulating greens were tricky. But overall I loved it.

Nice course hidden in the hub bub of Croydon

Before the lockdown, managed to play this course after the rains of winter. Was in very good nick though the greens were a little slow compared to Addington Palace which I played the day before. Some challenging holes especially the par 5 12th. A very tricky hole and deserves to be the SI 1 hole. Will be looking to visit again later in the year. Clubhouse was already closed except the Stud Bar. Pro shop was open and looked fairly well stocked.

Very nice but very heavy

Probably not the best time of year for this course. It's a very nice layout but is very muddy and wet. Greens run true but are very wet and slow.
Excellent clubhouse and a very friendly welcome, even from the members that were following our society. (Poor souls)
TBH they could have made more effort over the food. Had to wait ages.
