Better than The Brabazon

This course is fantastic. It’s very difficult thanks to the many crater like bunkers which seem to be everywhere. The condition is great throughout. I played the Brabazon recently and I have to say I prefer the PGA. Even though the Brabazon is excellent too. Don’t expect to score low on either course.

First timer

First time at the belfry and played the PGA Course.
The course was in a really good condition for this time of year, well manicured by the greens staff. (Kinda to be expected as it the Belfry). Facilities were great as we dined in Sam’s bar afterwards.
Staff were friendly and helpful throughout the visit.
An enjoyable day.

Jeezo

Played the PGA national today it’s like playing in a cow field. The greens were the only up side. I understand that there’s been loads of rain but the fairways were shocking. The hotel, range, workers and the people in the place are fantastic but that course need attention.

Unreal condition for January

Course was in great condition for this time of year, greens were pure and fast, Greenkeeping staff doing a great job, bunkers were well kept, tee boxes in great condition

Given the time of year and the weather we’ve had recently don’t have a thing to complain about, would definitely recommend & will be heading back soon to try the Brabazon

10/10

Disappointed

As a golfer, we can all be guilty of slating courses when don't play well. This isn’t one of those times. We all played to a decent standard despite my review.

The course was far too boggy and should really have been deemed as unplayable and closed for play. Even at a reduced winter rate it was no where near worth the value of what we paid.

Playing winter golf, you appreciate that you have to look differently at a few things, but I felt that it was basically open just to take your money and the local club courses would have closed to protect the course.

The Belfry can not be classed as an average club so I appreciate that it has to carry itself higher. But when you’re losing balls in areas you shouldn’t due to very boggy ground conditions that’s just not right. The course was full of standing water and just boggy on every hole. 16, 17 and 18 in particular were a disgrace really in terms of being classed as open.

I was told before playing that the course will never close no matter what condition it’s in and there was never a truer statement.

Best course at the belfry

Played it multiple times . Greens were bumpy and in need of some work , but possibly due to the amount of rain last week they couldn’t do get them up to the normal condition.

It’s a great test . The rough on the 6-13 (across the road) is brutal .

Belfry National course

Great day out, Belfry very friendly and a course in really good condition. The National has 70 bunkers and I found quite a few but still had a good round. Recommend to all golfers. Go and have a go!

Total Disappointment Not Worth The Money

Huge amounts of standing water on every hole. Landing areas on fairways in such bad condition that balls were lost through plugging, or simply submerged under water. Bunkers were unplayable.

Overall an unplayable course which the club refused to deem such or declare a bad weather day even after a torrential downpour to add to the already flooded course. All about the money, and it wasn’t worth £90 by any stretch of the imagination!

Very disappointing experience! Play Burhill instead!!!!
