Boggy hellhole

£40 is expensive to play 1st nine twice off slippery tee mats. After a wet few days, ball plugged into greens and fairways, course should not be open in this condition. Feel ripped off.

Nice course

Nice course, you can make it be a challenge if you want to. Good introduction to difficulty for newer golfers.

Nice course, congested at weekends.

Nice course.
I was due to play an 18 but decided early, along (along with 3 other groups waiting) that the four ball ahead were too slow and wrecking it for everybody. I guess that is Saturday afternoon golf for you but group behind me had no tee time and were just let straight on, so this explains why it was so congested. I was quite calm but there were a couple of lads back really losing it.
I enjoyed the course, some nice water holes and was already warned at check-in that the tees weren't the best, but they seemed ok.
I would come back and play an 18 here because the course was a challenge and in pretty good condition, but it would be early morning or midweek.

Poor

This place is in need of some TLC. The pro shop is like a tuck shop. The chipping practise area is an overgrown mess, that looks like someones back garden. There derelict buildings dotted about, all very weird. The tees are a muddy lumpy mess, the bunkers are all covered in weeds, you get the picture. For ?35 this is a very expensive joke of a course. However the bar and food were excellent.

Very short, and a little frustrating

When you have to tee off on a par 5 with a 4 iron because you're going to run out of fairway it takes away a lot of the risk and reward.. overall in my opinion this was a crammed in 18 holes and although there were a couple of nice holes overall not for me

Many signature holes on this course

I'm a real fan of Gatton Manor. It's a parkland/woodland course with lots of memorable holes.
These challenge you to think, and are satisfying to play well. There are ponds, streams and ditches throughout the course, which need decent planning for a good result. The course is in the middle of nowhere so is incredibly peaceful. Greens were in good shape just after Covid lockdown, but some facilities were still understandably closed.

Great layout but in need of some TLC!

I've played Gatton Manor a number of times over the last 12 years or so. This was my first visit in about 4 or 5 years. It really is a great layout but this place needs some significant attention spent on it. I know that it has been through lockdown and may not have received as much attention as it should have but compared to other clubs, it is not in great shape. The tees are very poor and the greens are okay but inconsistent in pace. But the course just looks scabby in a lot of places. When I first played here the course was luxurious, now it is tired. I understand that it is under new ownership - they really need to invest some time and money to return it to it's former glory. It would be a real shame if it went to ruin.

Gatton manor is a hard course, if you don't play often, you need to be good of the tee, some tricky holes the 6th is the hardest, well looked after course but facilities have gone down hill...
