Reviewed May 19 2020 by Rory P - rated 4 out of 5 Good local course
A good local course that is easy to access. With 2 different tees for each of the 1st and 9th, 2nd and 10th, etc, amateurs can get to know holes well and aids with improving different parts of your game whilst still feeling you have a different challenge.Lots of walkers around the course which adds an extra challenge but that what happens when a course is closed for 9 weeks due to COVID.
Normally a good clubhouse but couldn't go in this time (understandably)
?13 for twilight round which is very good
Greens are quite fast but maintained very well

Reviewed Aug 24 2019 by Darren S - rated 3 out of 5 Poor Signage
Arrived 15 minutes before a 07:30 tee time that I booked and paid for on line, but the pro shop was closed, nobody in the bar, etc. Spent 10 minutes knocking on doors, pressing the buzzer for the clubhouse, but got nothing. So had to play and use a scorecard I found in my bag from a different course.Signage from one green to the next tee needs to be clearer as can be confusing if (like me) you are unfamiliar with the course.
Despite the issues with finding my way around, the course is actually quite nice.
Greens are lightning quick, so careful with those downhill putts!

Reviewed Jun 24 2019 by TP - rated 3 out of 5 Solid course as a 9 hole, bit boring as a two tee 18. Greens immaculate and the best feature of the course, lots of irons off the tee as well which is always a bit more interesting than driver on repeat.

Reviewed Apr 18 2016 by Eddie/St A - rated 4 out of 5 A nine hole course on common land. The condition of the greens is amazing. The fairways are a bit short, the fairways are wide, but if you miss them you will be in trouble. If you haven't played here, it is very worthwhile.

Reviewed Mar 19 2015 by Steven M - rated 4 out of 5 A very old essex course 9 holes only which you play twice from 2 sets of tees. With todays equipment, its a bit of a quirky challenge, but I have never completed it under par so I cannot say I find it easy. The greenkeeper ALWAYS blows me away at how he keeps the greens in such great condition, miracle worker, Kenny the pro is very helpful, and the clubhouse is a snug retreat to have a post game snack or pint.
