Thornbury Par 3 course is a lovely gentle round of golf; suitable for beginner, the elderly, young and those looking for a short game. Some of the holes can feel rather samey being between 100-120 yards. However the front and back 9 holes do have a different “feel” with most of the back 9 being situated at the bottom of the hill. The 12th hole has one of my favourite holes locally shooting down hill. It is a pity the designers didn’t use this hill a little more in their course design.
I consider this course to be quite poor value for money being nearly £12, when locally you can get a full course for £10 and this course does receive half the attention the Marlwood course receive from the green keepers (I used to work there). The course could do with a few ball cleaners situated near the tee and a couple of bunkers were without a rakes. On the plus side I was expecting the course to be in much worse condition in late February than what it was considering the last couple of months of rain but it was rather nice. However despite the greens being slightly mossy they did run very well and were predictable with good pace. This is a course I enjoy playing a couple of times a year as I find it fine tunes my short irons and wedges off the tee.

The Marlwood course was in excellent condition today. The greens were generally firm with very short grass but also smooth and predictable (however the balled stopped quickly from a high pitch). The fairways were wonderful (not that I was on them much). Some of the rakes at the bunkers need replacing as they are missing teeth. But the course is in lovely condition.
The Marlwood course has wide open fairways allowing you to hit the ball long and slightly erratically without punishment. This course will favor the longer hitter as there is only one hole which requires tactical layup shot, due to two hazards on hole 17.
I feel the course requires a twilight price as £14.50 is quite expensive for fading autumnal light (I got 15 holes done in good light, 2 holes is poor light and one hole in near pitch darkness (I'm stubborn)). Currently their are two local courses with green fees of £10.

The beautiful course in Thornbury is where I learnt to play golf so it will always provide me with nostalgic memories. The course is in good condition and is maturing nicely. It was busy that Sunday evening and the grass on the greens was a little flat making it hard to hold on the greens and making putting tricky. The rough was extremely dense on that day making it impossible to find wondering balls.
I love the views from the 8th tee across Thornbury and 15th tee across the severn. Some holes feel a little repetitive, for example the four par 3s are very similar yardages.

Nice and easy course o get back into the game. Scored better in the back 9. Greens weren't brilliant. Fairways were nice. Let down by people slacking on the dress code, denim jeans etc.
