The Cherington is an inland links that hosted Open qualifying for six straight years, the maximum permitted. It starts off fairly benign and gets tougher and tougher the further you get in. With tightening fairways (the 18th is currently just 5 yards wide at one point!) and rough that touches your knees if you stray too wide, it is a tough test at any time but when the weather gets unpleasant it gets really tough.
The Avening is more of a parkland course and whilst it is a little more forgiving it is the slightly tougher of the two courses with water featuring on several holes. It plays quite long but it rewards thinking golf rather than power golf.
With a driving range, short game practice area with two bunkers, large putting green, excellent changing facilities (with towels provided free) and a club house that is large and comfortable, the facilities are excellent. The bar is reasonably priced and the food is considered to be some of the best in the area.
Green fees are quite pricey unless playing with a member, but for a few pounds more you can get a day ticket that allows you to play both courses and that is excellent value
In short, excellent. So good, I joined!

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.Reviewer Rating

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.Reviewer Rating

Always a pleasure
Great courses, 2 ball and 4 ball so rarely a hold up. Even in near dark and heavy rain it was a pleasure to play!(Round played: Nov 2019 - Score: 11 Handicap: )

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.Reviewer Rating
