What the club says: Welwyn Garden City Golf Course measures 6,100 yards off the back tees and in an undulating parkland setting, the course at first sight seems a relatively easy test of golf. With narrow fairways and small greens, 5 testing par 3s and a 600 yard par 5 it is easy to see why there are many scorecards that tell a different story.

Short course but difficult to score well.Course in good condition, Greens have many subtle contours. Quite undulating ground particularly the first and last few holes
Friendly service in the bar under Covid conditions.

Good but deceptive

On the face of it this is not a very long course even off the back tees. However it undulates a lot so whilst the distances as the crow files may be x, the reality is a lot longer. Greens were not particularly quick compared to what I am used to, but there are lots of subtle slopes etc which makes putting far from straight forward. Overall a good course to play and a decent challenge. Its probably best to play with somebody familiar to the course the first time around. ?25 for a midweek round with a member.

Enjoyable Day

We enjoyed playing the course. Bunkers & greens in excellent condition. The fairways needed cutting in places, but it was apparent that they were being left to grow after being burnt up in the heat wave. Pick & Place was in operation. We felt that additional signage is needed on some holes. We came away resolved to return

Good course with some thought provoking holes

Really good day spent as part of a team on a charity day out, hospitality was great and the club accommodated us brilliantly, the course was in great condition and held up well, especially as the heavens opened on us midway round.

Society Day yesterday Aug 7, despite the past few weeks weather Greens were superb, tees excellent. Great course, a lot of the holes quite forgiving for the errant driver, would definitely recommend and return. Good clubhouse, Bar, Food.

A top course

Surprisingly undulating with excellent greens and fairways. Not always having to use a driver as best results come from careful course management.

Very good value for course in good condition. Poor planning by setting inter club matches out in 2 balls in to a packed course of 3/4 ball groups.

Excellent course in fantastic condition

Played on a cold sunny day and course and view were spectacular for the time of year. All greens were in superb condition and all were in use except one where the bunkers were being improved. Great credit to the green keepers.

Played it in windy dry conditions and rough was punishing, you need to be straight of the tee and not too long as a lot of bunkers will collect over hit balls and slight off line shots,

Not bad. Could do with a little more colour around the course. Very plain. Very hilly. Recommend getting a buggie if you can. Only 6 buggies available, so get in quick.
