Not a golf course

where to start .... Its a field. no clubhouse (its a shed that's unmanned) you drop some cash only into an honesty box.
the course- (bear in mind it was during a hot July) the ground was solid so you had to tee off from mats (that got worse as you went on ).
every fairway is sloped left or right - so no matter where you hit, it rolls into the rough
no difference between fairway and green, just a flag.
if you do manage to get near a flag due to slopes - you cant actually putt a ball because of badly cut holes - the plastic cups are higher than the ground so you just hit the plastic and bounce off.
Broken glass in the rough and by trees - a new kind of challenge i suppose.
the first green is under 3 trees ?? good luck landing on that!
Weirdly, it was so bad it was actually funny
paid £30 for the two of us - worth at very best £10
most greens - if you didn't hit the hole it would roll all the way back to the rough
wouldn't even recommend to beginners as you've no way of assessing if you hit a good shot or not

Reviewed Sep 20 2014

After seeing the small run down sign on the A4 me and a friend decided to take a chance a play at the wessex downs course. As we were both new to golf and improving fast we had been looking for a great pay and play golf in the area and after stumbling upon this course we could not be more happy!

We turned up and payed the lovely lady who runs the course the £5 fee and she told us to play as much as we like and help ourself to a trolly to save us carrying the clubs around as it was a long course. Very nice to talk to and very welcoming!

The course was brilliant! Very good variety of holes and excellent lengths to play from a short par3 to a long par4 ranging from flat ground to steep hills and even some water hazards. I couldn't recommend the course highly enough for beginner and intermediate players. I would recommend taking a drink or two with you if you play on a hot day as there isn't a great deal of cover from the sun other than a few trees on the course.

Play for a Fiver all day. Greens are terrible but the ideal place to go and have a whack. Cracking views from the 4th tee of the Kennet valley.

(Round played: Nov 2011 - Score: 40 Handicap: )
