Reviewed Jan 18 2018 by Crowborough - rated 3 out of 5 Nice and friendly
This is a friendly little golf course - with a decent driving range.Its always enjoyable to play there......everything about it (except the bunkers) is fine. (Not brilliant - but fine). The bunkers are generally shocking - with very little sand.
That said - I like it - I am very happy to play 9 holes after work.....good times!

Reviewed Jun 7 2012 by Crowborough - rated 1 out of 5 The course could be a real little gem but unfortunately suffers from a lack of maintenance. The greens are not consistant and are in generally poor condition. The bunkers lack basic maintenance with very little sand in places and patches of mud. Beware of playing 18 holes as the owner seems to put people out in front of you as you leave the 9 th green. The range balls are past there best and could do with changing for something better. At £20 for 18 holes at weekends it's not value for money considering the condition of the course.

Reviewed Mar 12 2012 by BillyD - rated 1 out of 5 This little course has a LOT of potential, set with some lovely Sussex views,
however it is let down by being poorly run and is in average to bad condition most of the time. Being 9 hole course beware playing 18 holes as the owner will shove a 4ball out in front of your 2 ball just as you walk off the 9th.
The greens are generally in poor to average condition, however the course is a good little layout with interesting holes, small greens offset a short yardage, but by no means is a total walk over. It won't take much effort to improve the condition.
Clubhouse is small, but offers a lot for it's size, the driving range is excellent and also has a grass tee area for members. There is a chipping area and putting green, whilst are a truly excellent idea, they have sadly been ruined by two things. 1) the green is on a permanent slope. No way to practice short flat putts. 2) the chipping area isn't representative of anything you play in real-game golf. You only chip out of rough, nothing to simulate fairway or fringe shots, and you can't chip onto the green, so no way to practice roll or check. Seems a great idea, but in practice it is pointless and needs a re-design.
The setup has potential, but lacks quality, we feel it's an expensive 18 holes at the weekend.
