Reviewed Jul 18 2018 by Philip S - rated 2 out of 5 Great greens for a pay & play
Essex is bereft of decent golf courses but this is probably the best pay and play course locally to us. Fairways obviously brown due to the hot weather but the greens are in excellent condition.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Feb 18 2017 by Scott W - rated 2 out of 5 Expensive for what it is. Not keen on this course. Greens are all weather so open all the time. 27 holes so plenty to choose from. Just not for me. Very flat and I like hills

Reviewed Oct 8 2016 by Ben B - rated 2 out of 5 Played early on a Saturday morning. Paid £32 for the round plus another £12 to share a buggy. The course isn't in good condition. The greens are being prepared for winter, which is fine but it would have been prudent of the club to inform me of this at the time of booking, or even perhaps offer a green fee discount. I don't think that the round is worth £32 when comparing to other local courses. I'm local so will no doubt try again next year, probably at a reduced twilight rate or similar.

Reviewed Oct 3 2016 by Richard S - rated 2 out of 5 Greens were terrible - had been treated for the winter and was like putting on a connect-4 board. No problem with this being done, but we weren't told pre-round, and it did spoil the round. A discount should be offered when this has happened as it temporarily lowers the quality of the course (which of late has been very good).

Greens are now rock hard. However, main problem is slow play. This is caused by there being no rangers on the course and the fact that the rough and semi rough are way too long and balls that shouldn't be lost are lost and time is wasted searching. They need to sort this out.

Reviewed Jan 7 2012 by Scott W - rated 2 out of 5 Temporary tees now in use. The matts are not that good to tee from. Greens were nice for this time of year.
A good round today so can't really moan. Would play there again but pricey at the weekend. I don't think it's a £26 course

Reviewed Jul 30 2010 by Ryan P - rated 2 out of 5 A is by far the best 9, however B & C are very uninspiring and open allowing all kinds of poor shots to be easily recovered. Greens are good. Good club house and facilities. Worth a visit for medium / high handicappers but if you're in the Southend area my suggestion would be Belfairs.

Reviewed Aug 3 2020 by Jonathan B - rated 3 out of 5 Decent course but greens to slow
I'm hitting a bit longer nowadays and not just because of the parched fairways, seem to put my bigger clubs into the hazards. Greens far too slow, when most greens I now play on are fast so was difficult to readjust.(Round played: Jul 2020 - Score: 93 Handicap: 17.4)
