Great condition for a course in February - will be back when the sun shines and the fairways have a burnt out colour - enjoyed it.

What amazing changes

I played West Essex golf club the other day having not played it in a long while. First of all the condition was first class, the greens were fantastic for this time of view. Since I last played they have made a lot of changes, a fantastic new Trackman range, some new hazards on the back 9 making it even more tricky that it was before. Finally they have spent a lot of money on the bar area, it looks brilliant and the food and drink was first class.

Hidden Gem in Essex

is one of the best decent Golf Course around Essex London. The clubhouse is superb and the management team including the pro at the pro shop is very helpful. The course is being maintained very well and it is worth the money to become part of the community there.

Nice course

Played a week ago and course was in fantastic nick, greens were beautiful and very quick for this time of year. Rest of the course was very well kept. Very friendly club with a lovely modern clubhouse. Highly recommended.

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.

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

The freezing conditions didn't take away from what it an interesting course. Greens and fairways in good condition for the time of year. The front and back 9 feel like different courses which provides a good test.
