What the club says: Benton Hall is a challenging parkland course set amongst natural woodland and rolling countryside. Renowned for its impressive views, each hole represents its own challenge, with the river Blackwater meandering through the course adding to the picture postcard views. After your round of golf, relax in the Clubhouse or on the terrace overlooking the lake with its abundance of wildlife.

Lovely course in fantastic condition, some interesting holes & a good test of your golfing skills with a good deal of water. Staff & members friendly, clubhouse also good. We ordered a small breakfast but was told they had no eggs & could choose another item to replace the eggs. We waited over an hour for our food & wasn’t that good when we got it, a staff member asked if all was ok, we told her we wasn’t pleased, she apologised saying they had some staffing issues, then as we were leaving the lady serving at the bar came over to us & gave us a full refund, which was great. We was thinking of not going back, but the course is to good for that & everyone has an off day

Played Saturday afternoon in light drizzle positives were the greens in good condition. The rest of the course was soaking and muddy, the grounds people must be crying. Should have been closed as will take some weeks to recover the course. Booked 18 holes but only played 9 as was not enjoying the course.Reviewer Rating

Overpriced
Good course, challenging hold Design at times. However, the green peas are too high for a course like this. I've played a number of different courses and don't see the justification for green fees this high. The greens are in good condition, the tea boxes were in decent condition. Fairways were good.Reviewer Rating

Tough rough, but nice greens
Not a long course, but an interesting layout with a stream that meanders through the course with a few ponds as well, undulating in parts. Rough is penal, so keep it straight Thought the greens were excellent very true.Reviewer Rating

Tidy track, very friendly club
Course is challenging but always interesting. A few too many tight tree lined fairways at times but very good greens and overall presentation was above average. The club and members seem very friendly, welcoming and with some nice food and drink options to round off the long and hilly walk. Well worth a go.Reviewer Rating

Best greens I have played so far this year, course in very good condition for the time of year, staff at reception the bar and the half way hut were very nice and friendly. Would probably join the club if I lived nearer. Bit annoying though when your putting and a green keeper keeps mowing around the green, but didn’t spoil the day. Would like to play in the summer when the trees are in bloom.Reviewer Rating

Great condition golf course
Good solid course. Great condition and a lot of care has gone into the making and maintaining of the course.The holes are a tad short and green fees are quite high compared to courses around the area. But the condition is better here.
