Great Little Course
Had a good couple of rounds here at the end of 2020. Used the par 3 course as a warm up before switching to the regular course. Lots of areas to catch you out and some great fun holes to play.The weather was awful but the course was still in really good condition.

Very average course now
Since before Covid struck,Bunsay has been on the slide down.This could be a super little course which combined with ?Badgers'makes for a testing game of golf in a pretty setting at a reasonable price.Regretfully since Covid there has been a noticeable lack of care for the playing public with bunkers and greens in a generally poor condition.put that together with a lack of refreshments other than tes/coffee and the overall experience is poor.Reviewer Rating

Course in bad condition
Played well considering how bad the course condition is. Putting was good and driving long and central the majority of the time(Round played: Sep 2020 - Score: 82 Handicap: 0)

A Great Shame
Having enjoyed this course for the past 15 years a few times every year it’s a great shame to see it in its current state. It’s been getting progressively worse but yesterday’s round was the final straw. Firstly there was no hand sanitizer in the clubhouse, just a messy bottle of soap and no water, not clearly labelled . The tees resembled a dust bowl, with no grass on them whatsoever. Every tee was adorned with litter, broken tees or bottle caps. The walk ways had not been mowed, neither the fairways or rough. Approaching the green my expectations where low but even then they surprised me. Strange 2 inch holes scattered nearly on every green, with no indication where the first cut finished and the green started. There was moss and some other weed spread over every green with at least 25% of each green deemed ‘un-puttable’ by myself and the accomplished golfers i had the misfortune of sharing this experience with. On some greens some sections of the grass had mutated into a black ooze!This is my first review and I’m saddened to have to submit such a daming report however i felt compelled to ward fellow golfers away. What was once a great course, kept in great condition and held in one of the highest regards in the area has now sadly due to negligence become no better than a park pitch and putt.
Even then i fell i’m doing a disservice to council run pitch and putts!

A small challenging golf course
Have played many rounds here and like to mix it up with the main nine and the very challenging par three,which should not be taken lightly.Currently,with the hot weather watering can interrupt the use of the courses,so worth checking before leaving home.
The greens are very flat but the sun is taking its toll.
Generally,still a gem set in the Essex countryside and at a reasonable price.
The cafe/restaurant offers a wide range of snacks and drinks from coffee to beer and two excellent breakfasts.

great place for learning, improving
I joined this year, my first club, because it has served me well in my transition from playing mainly par 3 courses. it's also compact enough to do 18 holes in a reasonable time(Round played: May 2019 - Score: 97 Handicap: 0)
