Shortwood lodge is just outside of Mangotsfield just off the ringroad. Attached to Woodlands golf club just up the road between the M5 and M32 this golf course is very different, I was disappointed to see that there were no ball cleaners on the course and the distance markers to the green could sometime be hard to find. On paper this course looks rather boring with the vast majority of the holes being relatively short par 4s.
However I was pleasantly surprised many holes on the par 4s are reachable for bigger hitters of the golf ball but because of the natural hilliness of the land every hole feels different. You can have two holes exactly the same length but when playing uphill or downhill makes for different challenges. The views at the upper parts of the course were wonderful, you can see across Mangotsfield and see the school and what I assume is Kingswood. Looking Easterly the rolling farmland is very pleasing to the eye as well.
This is a more forgiving course with few water hazards and generous fairways. The course was in good condition for late November with only 2 greens (14th and 15th) at the bottom of the hills starting to struggle with being saturated with water. I look forward to playing this course again in the spring. If you play Woodlands and Thornbury often like I do this is another good local course which is worth a couple of rounds.

Course is not very challenging but great value for money and no need to book a tee time. Great course for beginners as most holes forgive any miss hit drives.

Always love playing this course. Its short but that brings its own challenges. Driving the Green (or trying to!!). Great for the mid to high handicapper and the course is is always in good condition (considering the cost to play).

Played this course many times over the last 18 years. It's matured into a nice course, which offers challenges to new and intermediate players. Pros; greens tend to be open all year, really good value and decent overall quality. Cons; bunkers are generally awful, no par fives (off yellow tees) and lacks imagination. Great option for the improving golfer!
