Even though it's short, this course is really challenging because of the hills. But it's worth it because the scenery is so beautiful. You won't be disappointed!

Great course, but I've never been asked to skip a hole, so the green keeper can cut a fairway!

Great course in stunning scenery

Great course set in stunning scenery. Course was in excellent condition with the greens running really well. There is a real need to stay on the fairways here as the rough is quite severe. Every hole is a test but my favourite is the long par 3 10th. Very hilly but well worth a visit. Highly recommended.

An acquired taste?.

Fine if you like playing blind holes. Probably a much better experience second time round. Take plenty of golf balls with you.

Lovely Views

Writing a review of Windermere shouldn't be that hard, and I doubt it will be much different to most other reviews. It'll be along the lines of "Windermere is a gorgeous course in stunning scenery, it's not long, but it makes up for that by being fairly tight. There aren't any bunkers, but you won't always get a flat lie. Oh, and it's hilly, so take that into consideration when deciding whether to get a buggy. The greens, tees and fairways are all excellent".

What else is there to say? My favourite hole is the par 3 8th.

Lovely gem, no bunkers !

Great little course, very well kept and professional staff in the pro shop. I didn't realise until half way round that it has no bunkers, but as every hole is so amazingly different who cares. Will definitely be back.
