What the club says: The course at Cowdray Park is set amongst the beautiful South Downs and forms part of The Viscount Cowdray's 16,000 acres estate. Overlooking the ruins of the old Cowdray House, golf was first played here in 1904 and the course has now matured into what is without doubt one of the most beautiful tracks in the south east. Measuring 6,212 yards, the par 70 layout boasts the very latest in fairway irrigation and sprinkler systems and together with its sandy soil, is able to maintain its superb condition throughout the whole year.

The bunkers have all been revamped and look a picture along with the rest of the course. They are well positioned and with the rough brow to cope with too they really do the job of presenting a hazard worth avoiding. Greens are in great condition too. And don't forget to take in the views. This place to me has it all. Friendly staff and members, a great setting, excellent course and gorgeous views.

What you want a golf club to be.

I love this course it's in a great setting and has some fantastic holes. Always welcoming and has always been in good condition when I've played it. Currently undergoing new bunkers to the whole course but what a place it will be when complete this summer. Try it.

Good but could be so much better

Beautiful golf course in some of the finest scenery and countryside in West Sussex. Very pleasant club house and changing facilities, golf shop more of a kiosk than a shop and dreary staff in there, who looked like they'd rather be anywhere else, than serving punters. Some fine holes, especially on the front 9, but very disappointed to find so many unrepaired divots on the fairways and some of the greens. A decent half way house, but closed on the day and some members I met, moaned about the fact it is closed more than it's open. No sign of any marshals and no sign of anyone in the starter hut, disappointing given the stature of the club and it's reputation. Slow play an issue in places, no doubt some of the octogenarian members shuffling their way round with the usual 'thou shalt not pass' attitude. Liberal attitude to dress code, some very casual attire worn by some players I saw, again disappointing.

Come on Cowdray. Let's have everyone properly dressed, let's have a couple of marshals out in buggies on the course and let's sharpen up a bit. The club feels like it needs a breath of fresh air, feels a bit stuck in a rut, feels like it's living on reputation. You have a very good course, yet the golfing experience felt me wanting more.

Beautiful views

Two different days of golf- one that was wet and the other that was dry and sunny. Course coped well with the rain which was a deluge and dried quickly for the following day where the greens were fast and tricky- many undulations. Course offers all golfers a challenge so well worth a visit.

Quality course

Played Cowdray twice (in very different conditions) over a two day golf break. Stayed in The Lodge on-site which was clean, comfortable and well appointed. Breakfast was excellent! Golf challenging for all grades of handicap - greens are the course defence with splendid undulations, ridges and subtle pin placements. Overall a course we?ll worth playing in a great part of Sussex.

First time round here. Lovely course in great condition despite the recent prolonged wet weather. Greens were excellent and rolled well. Nice variety amongst the various holes and an excellent challenge. More of a walk that anticipated as there's a fair bit of elevation change as you go round. Decent value at £40 twilight rate. Friendly in the pro shop. Clubhouse looked very nice but I didn't pop in. Would love to play it again in the summer.

The scenery was beautiful and the course was kept in great condition. It was challenging but still enjoyable. The staff were friendly and the condition of the course was excellent, considering the hot temperatures. I also loved the lovely rolling parkland course, and the club house had great food. Highly recommend this course for those looking for an elite golf experience.

Beautiful Condition

Not the cheapest but grab a twilight deal and you won't feel so bad.
The course as you would expect in August on a hot day, was flawless. Stunning,
Both the Par5's were in the front 9 and I enjoyed them.
