What the club says: Banstead Downs is a downland course built on chalk. It has a reputation for being an "all year round" venue and rarely is the course unfit for play. The course has been designated an area of Special Scientific Interest because of the natural flora and fauna. The fairways have a natural undulation and good definition.

Nice tight course.

Enjoyed a round here. Tees in good nick, fairways too. Greens been dressed and filled and running true. A bit slow maybe. Also quite dry so bouncing quite a bit. Overall a nice course

Two days down pour course still playable.

Played on a Sunday afternoon following two days of heavy rain. The course was closed in the morning but opened in the afternoon. Given the weather the course held up ok. A couple of bunkers were flooded.

Generally the fairways were in good condition, but unfortunately some tee boxes were full of divots and the greens were quite bumpy and a few where also patchy.

Ed l

Decent long course with some pretty holes and challenging greens in terms of borrow/speed. Excellent practice facilities although the greenside bunkers were pretty devoid of sand. Wide enough to hit driver on most despite lines of trees/woods. The course involves crossing a busy dual carriage way twice , quite scary but not noisy despite proximity of roads.

Great winter option

Truly excellent greens & still only minimal signs of winter. Very enjoyable round & a course that especially appeals as a Braid.

dog walkers everywhere

dogs are off the lease and roaming everywhere ... in front of the tee box just before you smash driver and pooing on the verges. Not really much of a golf course if this can't be controlled. Shame because greens are v good.

The course was in good condition. The greens were also in a perfect state although very fast and unpredictable. Plenty of parking and a comfortable clubhouse with excellent staff.
