What the club says: You don’t have to be a member to enjoy our superb facilities, so why not spend a day experiencing one of the Midlands finest golfing destinations. The Par 71 6500 yard course is a fantastic challenge for golfers of all ages and abilities and our immaculate putting surfaces with subtle undulations will test the skills of even the very best putter.
Our famed signature hole, the 18th is a challenging par 3 over water set in front of the stunning clubhouse meaning that once navigated your post round drink on our stunning patio will taste all the more refreshing.

A stunning and unique venue
The Astbury really raises the bar for golf courses across the UK. The layout has developed nicely since reopening last year and the playing surfaces are always in excellent condition with real attention to detail across the whole estate. The shaped tees provide an interesting feature on every hole and there is clever bunker positioning that keeps you thinking all the way round. Set in a stunning location in the Shropshire countryside, this is the course to play in the region, and the clubhouse has to be one of the most impressive in the UK.Reviewer Rating

Excellent welcome in the pro shop, great tees and greens. Fairways and rough was very sloppy and borderline unplayable - would like to come back again in the summer when there is a bit of run on the ball as the course is wide open and only protected by relatively small greens. Current weekend green fee is ?60 I think which is too much given the state of the fairways but understand a pricing structure has to be in place by the season we are in - weather has been appalling the last few weeks!

First time playing here, very pleased with course layout and overall conditions even if it was a little wet under foot. Will definitely be returning here in the future.

Worth a Visit.
Played here on the 17th October 22 and would say that it was enjoyable. The flags were in some scary positions. Just miss and boom its gone. Nice holes with lots of approach play having to make sure you hit the green as most holes have a few bunkers short and front of the green.Reviewer Rating

I used my county card discount which I think made it half price (?27.50) I think?
On the whole a good course but I did have some complaints.
1. ?35 for a buggy with no GPS or ball/club cleaner or USB ports.
2. No ball cleaners on tees.
3. No bells on blind holes, and there are several.
Course was not busy so pace of play was not compromised.
Greens were very good and consistent across all 18 holes
Fairways were also good but first cut is too long. I was told that this is deliberate as there are not many hazards on the course.
Some tee boxes also needed cutting
Staff were very friendly.
Halfway house and bar looked very good but I did not use.
There is a putting green and a chipping area.
A couple of practise nets near the 1st Tee.

Great to see it back open and it was better than ever in my eyes. Really penal rough which means trying to hit it straight and some great but challenging greens. Really friendly welcome and atmosphere. Will 100% be returning here.

As Good As Ever?.Well Better Actually
Having not played here for a few years (since before it temporarily closed) I was really looking forward to returning. I wasn't disappointed?..Course was as good as I remember it and the greens were Fantastic. Trees have matured well and the rough even though not overly long is punishing.
Great challenge for all levels of golfer but also playable no matter what level you are at. Nice added additions in practice nets by first tee and the halfway hut (potting shed) where I sampled a lovely coffee and a very tasty bacon roll.
Course held up so well too given the weather we?d had the day before and also at the time i played. Really cannot wait to return. Staff were all very friendly and hospitable .

Absolute gem of a course
Fantastic course, beautifully laid out & challenging without being difficult. Fairways & greens were immaculate with the greens being very consistent throughout the 18 holes. Also very quiet when we played (2:20pm tee off on a Sunday) so didn't need to wait at all(Round played: Jun 2021 - Score: 111 Handicap: 31.3)
