Challenging even though on paper it looks short
Some great looking holes. The scorecard yardage would suggest this is easier than it is. Tree lined fairways on most holes. The only negative is the greens were very slow. If this course could get the greens faster then this would put the icing on the cake for this great course.(Round played: Jun 2021 - Score: 100 Handicap: 30.3)

Nice afternoon game
Played 11 holes after work one afternoon, the conditions were very hot, so can understand the firmness of some of the greens, I?d say the fairways are in really good condition, some of the greens are browned but it's been dry. Even though it's a short course it can be tight, so it can be challenging in places, some great island green holes and some quirky holes, worth the trip to play as it is an enjoyable track.Reviewer Rating

Good day out.
Had a lovely round with the course to myself (Sunday PM). Very short but quite tight, most would be better off leaving their driver in the car. Greens were in reasonable condition, a little slow but true. Overall a good test of your short game and worth the money.Reviewer Rating

Short but fun course
I played Thorne today and I went in with low expectations. Firstly £22 on a weekend is good value. The course is quite short but there are lots of trees so it's important to play with accuracy. And there are some nice holes. The dogleg on the 12th got me! I need to return. And there are some subtle water hazards too. Course was in decent condition. Judging from the reviews, its improving in that sense.Reviewer Rating

Worst course I've ever played
I play a lot of courses and don't leave reviews.I played today as part of a 3 day golf trip.
As soon as we pulled in to the car park and seen the putting green and then went in the foisty clubhouse I feared the worst.
Told the greens have just been 'done' and will be brilliant in a week. In a years time they will never be of a decent standard. Golfers rate courses on greens and they were horrific. Bunkers were a mess but no rakes I'm either to help when your in the last group of our society.
Club is obviously struggling financially
I'm not saying it's the worst golf course I've ever played but it's in the top one!!!

Greens not so good, but playable
Thorne is a great course for getting on easily, but can be a bit suspect around the greens which are often covered in so much debris you cannot possibly clear them for a long putt. Tricky layout, par 3 are all a challenge apart from one. So a decent test of golf for a reasonable fee. A seven out of ten course for me.Reviewer Rating

Needs some care and attention desperately
Having enjoyed this course in the past, we decided to give it another try after the recent rain. Unfortunately it was obvious from the first green and the course was not in the best condition and it got worse from there. Tee boxes were in bad condition, the bunkers had not been raked recently and many missing rakes or had broken ones. The edges of greens pitted and damaged, lots of areas of what would be GUR but not marked. Some greens had been hollow tined but in a very random way which meant it was impossible to make your ball head towards the pin. Unfortunately it does look like the course is struggling and maybe does not have the staff to bring it back to its former glory. Having said all this, it was only ?17 for the round, but I think I would rather pay ?20 and play somewhere in better condition. The course layout has always been interesting with the first 3 par threes all very challenging, but if you stray into a bunker then its a lottery as to what you will find when you get there. Aiming for the green can result in hitting a hole in the green or a rut and disappearing into the rough or trees. Hopefully they can recover the course over the winter.Reviewer Rating

Tricky but enjoyable
The terrain is flat but the course is tricky with frequent dog legs and very few opportunities to use a driver. The fairways and greens are in excellent condition. Bunkers were often unraked sadly.Reviewer Rating

Played on 21st July 19 and quite frankly it was poor. There were weeds in some of the greens, well I say greens more like a par 3 pitch and putt standard. A short course so good fun for the big hitters and the B9 was certainly better than the front.... shame as it just needs some TLC and would be really nice as it has some lovely aspects!! Come head green keeper pull your finger out......!!\\\\\\\\We also ordered a buggy which looked like Chevy Chase had just given it back after a summer vacation, need I say more.... fair to say we wont be recommending, sorry!!

society day
Thorne golf club is a very traditional club and very set in there waysthe general course was in fairly good condition but some of the pin positions were a bit ridiculous
one was even blind approach on a par 3 hole
greens were not the best condition with very bobbly and grass contamination has left bare patches
club house very dated and old fashioned but pleasant

Great little course
Played on 19/5 and the course is in very good condition, well maintained, and for ?10 (twilight from 2pm) excellent value for money. Maybe not challenging enough for lower handicap players as the course is a little short, but well worth a look for higher handicap/ novice players.Reviewer Rating
