Dainton Park Golf Club

Two of us tee d off at 4.52pm there was 1 lady playing on her own hitting 2 balls each time and two blokes in front of her taking there time. We were stood on each tee for 5 to 8 minutes each tee and didn’t get to play the 17th & 18th due to getting dark. The course was in mint condition and great to play would have been nice to finish all 18.

Enjoyed the course very much. Greens had been recently scarified., but no problem to play. The Halfway house could do with an upgrade.

First 7 holes were great. Lots of water in play. Tight tee shots, good accuracy required. Greens in good condition as well. Pace of play was not acceptable. 7 holes in roughly 2 hours was no where near normal. A two ball holding up 3 other groups. No marshalls, no rangers. Three groups waiting to play the 8th. Walked off after playing the 7th. If you are playing the course be aware of the time it will take. It is probably worth taking a buggy as well as the course looked to start getting quite hilly after the 7th.

Everything about Dainton is good including the clubhouse. Course has wide fairways but still some good challenges.

Nice course friendly people, was very wet but greens were good but very slow play

Played here mid-March. Ground was soft but not boggy with not much run on the fairways. I guess to be expected at this time of year. Good variety of hole layouts with a tricky bit of water here and there with short distances from green to next tee. Friendly staff and decent facilities; pro and driving range.

Lovely course and amazing rates. It does get quite busy and the pace off play usually ends up with a slow last few holes.

I usually play as a one-ball which probably doesn’t help, that being said other golfers seemed to be a bit frustrated with the pace.

The staff were excellent and friendly, driving range to warm up on and the course was excellent. The only downside was the weather and the pace of play.

My group (3 ball) were keen to play some golf over the Xmas period but were worried about the potential conditions considering there was substantial rain over this timeframe. The day prior to our round the course was closed due to rain and we were pleasantly surprised to not only find it open for our round but in excellent condition.

Staff were very friendly and facilities were excellent also.

The course was in good condition but the pace of play was ridiculously slow, yes there was a function on but they were well clear before my slot. Another bug bear of mine at the moment is the amount of discarded tees laying around on the tee boxes……. There are plenty of bins around…… why are these not picked up and put in the bin…..and even more annoying….. most were plastic aswell!! There were hundreds around the course…… I had time to pick a few up due to the slowness of the round!!!

Love this course
With a beautiful setting
The greens had been sanded and the owner gave us a big discount on the fees
Very kind of him
We didn’t ask for this gesture
Will definitely be back and recommend everyone to play Dainton Park

Great afternoon's golf on a really super course - first round here & shot 4 under par (after handicap). Think hiring a buggy helped. Will play here again.
