What the club says: The Avening is the original “new” course and was opened in 1975. Designed by Fred Hawtree it has matured into a fine parkland course which offers wonderful Cotswold vistas and a golfing challenge to suit most golfers.

The Cherington, designed by Martin Hawtree - son of Fred - was opened in 1995 and has a links like feel. It has recently become “the course to play”, judging by the requests from visitors and societies.

Very large immaculate greens. The rough consists of very high grasses which makes keeping to the fairways vital.
The food and service welcoming and excellent.

Lovely well maintained course

Well maintained course on rolling downs; good variety of holes, more water on back nine; rough is good challenge in places and course rewards accuracy. not cheap, but fair value. Great bar and food.

Nice course

Nice course and some really good holes. Decent challenge for all levels. Only minor negatives were very slow greens and no signage on greens to the next tees so you could get lost easily as the course intermingles with other holes in places.

Quality and variety

I played on the Cherington course at Minchinhampton Golf Course as a new member of their Academy programme and was very impressed with the quality of the fairways and greens. The layout of bunkers was challenging and the variety of fairway shapes and elevations kept it interesting. The fact that there are two courses to choose from (Cherington and Avening) only adds to the variety.

Played the Cherington course @ Minchinhampton. Fairways running fast due to the dry weather and the greens were excellent pace. It looks fairly benign and easy scoring but if you don't stay on the fairway or miss the green count on loosing a shot to get back into position.
Good value for money and a good open style course.

Golfshake Team ReviewPlayed both courses in June 2016 having previously played at an early time in the year. All I can say is wow! seeing the course in full condition was impressive with well manicured fairways and excellent true fast greens which were a joy to putt on!

When I played in June the rough was quite punishing but thanfully more so for my playing partner than me but this also did impact the round time slightly.

Both courses are wonderful and I'd highly recommend to anyone looking to play golf in Gloucs. Nice friendly welcome from the staff and facilities excellent.
