Good challenging course

I played at West Essex as part of a golf society day. It is a nice looking course with some lovely vistas of London through the many trees. There are some interesting and challenging holes and the course is well kept, the bunkers especially so. We had good food in the clubhouse and the staff were helpful and friendly. We would go back again.

Wonderful Scenery

Tight tree lined course with lightning quick greens. Course in good condition but pace of play was slow.

What a lovely course

Every hole has a different challenge to be faced. No two are the same. Greens in great condition. Some fairways (on the back 9 especially) seem to be recovering from last years scorching, but nothing to spoil your round. It's quiet hilly so consider a buggy. The clubhouse is excellent and there are very clear signs that money is being invested in the course. The staff are very welcoming.

What a gem

Played here last week and have to say it is a little diamond of a course. Front nine very tight with holes 3 through to 6 very pretty, back nine more open with the 17th and 18th being the most interesting. Greens were true and fast and overall condition was excellent. Will definitely be returning in not too distant future.

great greens

A very hot days golf but most enjoyable greens in great shape as was the rest of the course.
Very nice bar staff and a half way house with great bread pudding.

Good woodland course

Greens & bunkers in very good condition. Fairways could be cut a little shorter but otherwise the course is thoroughly good despite recent wet weather. Friendly & courteous staff.

Considering the weather the course was in great condition especially the greens which were perfect. Challenging course for a new person with slopes and long par 4s. It's does have forgiving wide fairways in the back 9. Great club

Nice course in London

A hilly course. Not for those who are unfit. Steep hills to climb on the front and back nine, finishing with a steep climb to the 19th hole.Beautifully maintained, and well served by transport links.

I was pleasantly surprised at this hidden gem. Played our society here. Food and service excellent plus good value. The course was challenging and views fantastic. There were plenty of practise facilities.
This would make an excellent venue for a party or wedding as the room was dressed for a wedding for the next day and I don't know who dressed the room but it had the wow factor. White twinkly lights and drapes from the ceiling. Very nice.
