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.
