loved the layout ,a real challenge. Amazing to think that this course is so close to the city centre, given the expanse of wildlife and deer population. The rough is penal but managed very well so balls can be found if they stray.(Round played: Jun 2018 - Score: 105 Handicap: 18)

Reviewed Jun 29 2009 by Paul M - rated 4 out of 5 Not the cheapest of courses, no deals to be had! But if you want to play at one of Nottinghams finest courses then this should be on the list. A well laid out course with some testing holes. Greens were superb when we played, fairways could've done with a sprinkle of water, but still in very good condition... May be a tad on the long side for some player tho and high handicappers may struggle because of it? In some respect its quite reminiscent of the back 9 at the forest of Arden (including the Deer!) Well worth a visit.

Reviewed Jun 13 2017 by Richard M - rated 5 out of 5 Lovely Traditional parkland course
Very enjoyable. Spoke to one of the gents in pro shop a while back who was so nice i made a note to play here on that basis. £30 with a county card is good. Course is nice, the roaming deer are like at Forest of Arden. Greens are lovely, the whole setting is nice we paused a few times to take in the sights. Highlight was when we stood on 6th tee and ALL the deer walked up top cross the fairway in front of us and stopped and waited when the first player stood on the tee.....maybe they learnt their lesson!?(Round played: Jun 2017 - Score: 97 Handicap: 13.7)

Nice course layout with some lovely views.Some holes are nice and wide and others you need to do a bit more thinking so it does give good variety for a mixture of abilities.
Was a bit of work ongoing on a couple of holes and I'm sure once that is finished I'm sure it will only improve what is a nice course.

Reviewed Jul 1 2013 by Tom D - rated 4 out of 5 A very good, mature, parkland course, just a couple of miles from Nottingham city centre.
A tough start to the round on holes 1-6, the exception being the par 3 2nd, with some long par 4s and a par 5, which compared to the rest of the course are perhaps slightly less interesting.
Greens are in excellent condition and the course in general plays firm all year round - playing very well in the winter relative to other courses.
Back nine is a real delight, with far more changes in elevation and varied holes; if playing straight it also offers better chances to make a score. Plenty of wild deer roaming the course add to the interest, and with Wollaton Hall overlooking much of the back nine there are some great views (difficult 14th hole would be my highlight).
Not cheap if not playing with a member, but well worth a twilight visit.

Reviewed May 28 2012 by Andrew M - rated 5 out of 5 I played Wollaton Park on the advice of a work colleague that stated it was an excellent course! And as he predicted it was a great golf course to play very tricky and amazing sights especially the deer`s all over the course.
Would highly recommend Wollaton Park Golf Club to anybody.

Reviewed Mar 11 2019 by Darren R - rated 4 out of 5 Premier Notts City coures
One of the top courses in Nottingham city set within a deer park providing a interesting and varied layout with a slight inland links feel.We played in early March and were slightly disappointed with the conditions and set-up but understand we were playing in winter. The greens had just had maintenance so hopefully by mid March they should be back to the top class best. There was also some additional maintenance work taking place with a few temp tees and a few areas fenced off due to either maintenance work or the deer?
This is a course definitely worth playing and one of the best in Nottingham city but during our visit it didn't quite live up to previous expectations nor the premium winter green fee. Looking forward to going back and would recommend to other golfers.

Lovely course in the city within a deer park which does mean you have to watch out for the deer roaming at time.Nice variety of holes and alwasy well kept with decent greens. Parts of the course in the back 9 are partly exposed so you can get a bit of wind but well worth a visit.

Reviewed Jan 29 2017 by Danny S - rated 1 out of 5 We play as part of a society and play different courses around the East Midlands every 3/4 weeks.
We called the club shop in the Tuesday and asked if we could book 2 tee times for 2 4 balls.
We were told that tee times cannot be booked and it's just a case of turn up and play.
We turned up on the Sunday morning only to be told that we weren't allowed to play unless we were accompanied by a member. If this is the clubs policy then fair enough but this wasn't relayed to us when we enquired about booking nor is this stated on the website. Some members in our society have travelled quite some distance to play today!
This was extremely poor customer service and they didn't seem particularly bothered about our situation.

Reviewed Dec 24 2016 by Keith B - rated 5 out of 5 Lovely parkland course, could hardly believe we were in a City centre. Great condition, for the time of year, quite tight in places with bunkers a many. Played over the Christmas period and the course was busy so had to be mindful of keeping up with play, felt like speed golf at times but wouldn't hesitate to play again.
