Fabulous Views

Lovely setting on the Dorset hills outside of Dorchester. The front nine is hillier than the back but the changes in slope set a real challenge for club selection. Even when you’re on the green you face more challenges with the slopes. Course was in good order considering all the rain. Hospitality was excellent. Definitely worth a visit

Stunning views, great condition

Came Down GC is renowned for its views and we were lucky enough to have the most perfect clear, calm day when we played. There is quite a bit of elevation change throughout which makes clubbing more difficult but it is a fair challenge. Conditioning was excellent. Greens were a bit scary in places with some big slopes. It is a very consistent course without being an amazing layout. The course itself did not excite but it was very enjoyable to play.

Lovely views

Well kept course with the most beautiful of views wherever you look. Greens will cause the very best difficulties and you need to get away on the fairway shots from the tee boxes. Lovely atmosphere around the course and club itself.

Fantastic course

Very varied holes and greens very tricky indeed- various undulations. Very well kept bunkers with plenty of sand and well raked. Fairways wide and open in most cases. Wind direction a test. Fabulous scenery.

Fantastic open course with brilliant views

You can open your shoulders on this course and really let rip. Playable all year round (when other local courses are closed) as it drains well. Wind is the norm, frequently in the teens mph with gusts in the 20s (like today). The course is maintained to a very high standard and all staff are extremely friendly and welcoming.

Views to kill for

A hilly course the weather can well be one of the challenges due to the wind, from the first tee the views over Dorchester are superb, a long downhill par 4 where a good drive can leave you with 150 to go. Best view is from the 15th green where you can see both sides of Portland, round to Devon across Lyme Bay, coming back on the final hole on a clear day the needles of the I.O.W are visible.

Very dry (but where isn’t at the moment) fairways in great condition , greens were quick and true. Views to die for,especially from 15th green and 16th tee. The course has some really challenging par 3s as well as some fantastic par 4s,the 4th 5th 7th and 16th need your full attention. Miss the fairways at your peril the rough and wind are what makes this course a real test. Avoid the pits found on the 8th and 17th as these will make making pars difficult. All the staff were friendly and members were welcoming. We throughly enjoyed are day out and will be back. For the record we are all single figure handicap golfers
