Nice flat 9 holer go round twice
Seems to drain well as it was quite good to play after a wet spell. Reasonable prices, nice flat course so not too difficult physically for the old 'uns. Beautiful surroundings, next door to the old Swindon/Staffs course which has now closed. Woman on desk was ok with us, quite friendly, but not happy with the bloke we saw later serving coffees. Really perfunctory, almost unfriendly attitude. Spoiled it for me so won't be rushing back. (Busy course, so they probably don't need the custom).Reviewer Rating

In lovely condition
The course was in excellent condition with quick green and well cared for fairways. This is a 9 hole/18 tee course which would lead to congestion during busy times. As it was we were held up for a few holes due to slow play, not congestion. All said and done it was good value at ?20 for 18 and they only accept cash. I would play again dependant on time of teeing off. Although I would recommend it would be after ensuring they understood how the course operatesReviewer Rating

Course has matured well. Still a lot of work to do with bunkers as some are full of rubble and rubbish! Both green side and on the fairway!
That said, £14 for 9 holes isn’t bad at all.

Nonsense prices and no facilities.
Since the start of Covid prices have been increased by 50% and facilities totally withdrawn. The patio furniture was allowed to rot away and is now removed, and the patio closed. The bar is closed as are the toilets (if you don't include the disgusting Portaloo which people are frightened to use) and there is simply nowhere to sit. Facilities - what facilities?Reviewer Rating

Not having played this course for a number off years we decided to book a tee time for Saturday morning.to our supprise things have really come on leaps and bounds not your normal 9 hole golf course would put a lot off the more established courses to shame a great clubhouse friendly staff and the facilities have really come on gym driving range par3 course Footgolf excellent short game area and the range was manicured like a golf hole fairway cut out semi rough target greens and great views.we opted to play 9 holes at first then decided to play 18 holes as the course has had a new layout with what they call handicap tees we opted to play off the back tees and what a great test off golf it is now par 69 measuring just under 6000 yards.the golf course was manicured and presented in good condition to my supprise for this time off year greens where a bit bumpy in places as they had been air-rated holes but true and quite quick.overall view is this course is a great challenge for every standard off player now with great facilities affordable pricing will definitely be coming back

I played the course in February 2017 teeing off at midday. Although the course seemed quite busy when we arrived at around 1000 (we played footgolf in the morning), it was pretty quiet when we played so pace of play was as fast we could play. It took us 4.5 hours to complete the course.
I am a beginner and played with my 7 year old son. We found this to be a good test for beginners, with wide fairways and not much in the way of water hazards or other obstacles. Bunkers were pretty easy to negotiate too and the greens were in good condition. The fairways obviously drain well as there was hardly any mud and the grass was cut pretty short. There are not too many trees or hedges and the rough wasn't too difficult to play out of, albeit the deep rough is pretty testing for a beginner. There is OOB on a few holes, but we didn't find that an issue at all and found more balls than we lost!
We didn't use the range but the practice chipping and putting areas were very useful and in great condition. The owners and other golfers were very welcoming and polite.
Overall at ?23 for 18 holes for myself and my son, I felt this offered good value and whilst we won't be rushing back, I think this will be a good course to play in the winter months, due to the excellent drainage. Definitely a pay and play course that we will visit again though!

Reviewed Sep 2 2016
We walked after our drives on the 1st hole to discover that the 1st green is now the 5th green and the new 1st green is now over a tall hedge next to the 2nd tee which is very dangerous if you are standing on the 2nd tee!! The 5th green is also now a blind shot over the same hedge to the old 1st green. It would have been nice to be told about the changes before we started. Also, the 4th hole measuring 471 yards has mysteriously changed from a par 5 to a par 4. What was a reasonable course is now a lot worse and we won't be returning. We did report our concerns afterwards but the only response was "We intend to chop the hedge down soon" Sorry but that's not good enough.

Hmm. This course does 'football golf'....... If you want to read on...... It's ok for a practice round in the summer, new course, open hard to loose your ball. The website is not up to date. Also, and surprisingly, this is the first golf course which takes 'cash only' no cards, there's a bar, food, driving range, why cards are not accepted I do not know?!! At least have a cash machine on site then otherwise it's miles to drive! We went to a very nearby course &played there where they DO accept cards!

Nice little 9 holer (you can go round again for the 18). Quite flat (it's next door to a small airport) and some small trees being developed. Not much rough so you shouldn't lose any balls. We enjoyed it and would go back again.

The course is flat, open and fairly easy. That said, it is enough of a test to make it a good practice course and with a price of £9 for 9 holes or £12 (I think) for 18 it is certainly cheap! Some of the bunkers are in poor condition and the greens need a bit more care but the fairways are fine. The club is very welcoming and has changing and shower facilities if needed and a nice bar area with comfy chairs and many tables for a hot cup of tea or a beer.
On my last visit I was very disappointed to see that the mesh fence that separates the driving range from the last fairway is badly damaged and mostly missing which is rather dangerous if there are any lefties with a slice on the range (or someone with am huge fade!), there were a few range balls on the fairway and clearly this is not safe. I have been here a few times and would go again - but only if that fence is fixed!
