The golfers????????
Played this course during the development stage last year and it was abysmal, however a group of three of us returned this year to play again, the course is in good condition and the layout good though I wouldn’t say it’s worth the money they charge compared to other also good courses in the area, the club house is the joke of the place, the decor looks like it hasn’t changed from the seventies, and for three guys that run their own businesses that like to meet up and play golf we were told no mobile phones or electronic devices in the club house, only on the golf course, (but also please avoid slow play at all times would be on a sign somewhere I would imagine!) anyway my review would be good course massively over charged, with an out of date clubhouse with no atmosphere and wouldn’t returnReviewer Rating

The once great course
I had been wanting to play Thorndon Park golf club for a number of years and after having recently played it I wish I hadn't bothered, the greens were abysmal, the fairways atrocious and they are carrying out major works on the course. probably the most over rated course I have ever played and whoever does these course ratings you see in some of the magazines etc. obviously aren't playing them.(Round played: Aug 2018 - Score: 89 Handicap: 13.4)

Rough!
Ridiculous rough, not visitor friendly (no signs to show where next tee is), groundsmen strimming next to the green you are putting on and visitors have to park on rough ground, as members have the tarmac. Greens are super fast.Reviewer Rating

Course was in good condition given the recent weather and has a good mix of hole layouts making for an interesting round. Quite expensive for the time of year and facilities arguably appear a little dated.

Reviewed Jul 25 2013
Course was in excellent condition. It's been extremely dry and the greens, tees and fairways were green. Other courses are yellow/brown, however when paying £60 a round in a weekday, I would expect that.
Clubhouse is not the manor house, which really only comes into view on the 18th and is a shame since you would expect a nice clubhouse for the money, but then the clubhouse does offer nice changing facilities a good pro shop and nice bar so can't really complain.

Very nice course - worth a visit
Course in great condition although the greens were extremely slow. Bunkers very well maintained, fairways in good condition, tee boxes level and not cut up with divots.Well worth a visir

The course is good but the rough is very high at the moment and they've left a collar around the bunkers which is unnecessary

Worth the visit
This is a member only course and the visitor price is reflected in this - ?50 with county card, so not the cheapest deal. The course does live up to the billing and is well looked after with lovely greens in particular. The catering and service was very good and there was plenty of space on the patio given the requirement for social distancing. A well organised course with a fair challenge to please all golfers.Reviewer Rating

Excellent course
Thorndon is a lovely course in a beautiful setting with no disappointing holes, and surely the best course in Essex. The fairways have taken a beating over the dry summer and preferred lies would not have been inappropriate on some. The greens were good. Played during COVID restrictions, the clubhouse was OOB and an interview meeting closed the drinks service by the time we got in.Reviewer Rating

Great course condition for this time of year, particularly the greens. Disappointing to be told to put my phone away in the clubhouse when I was sitting by myself sending a few emails.
