What the club says: The Club is a James Braid designed golf course in a central location near Tamworth. Drayton Park Golf Club is popular with casual visitors and golf societies alike. The tree-lined course is an extremely good test of golf but is easy walking, with short distances from green to tee so that 27 or 36 holes is easily achievable without tiring.

Great course
Played there this week and after a terrible winter I must say that the course is in super condition. My course (located with 20mins of this place) has been shut most of the winter and we still are way off the conditioning of Drayton. We even saw buggies out there which is incredible really after Decembers rain.Changing rooms was closed and temporary toilets had to be used due to refurb. Only 2 on offer but were clean.
Greens were simply stunning and really firm. Fairways, approaches and tees were well looked after. 3 mats had to be used and a carry only policy in force for holes 13 thru 18. Bunkers were smartly raked and nice to play out of.
Plenty of ropes to navigate around but in protection of the course it makes sense and certainly pays dividends.
We will be back and have to say, I would join if I lived closer.
Good pint of Guinness too

Quality course
You’ll struggle to find better greens all year round than here. Course improving year on year. Greens, teeing areas and Aprons are top notch. Fairways have improved dramatically since I played last year. Still a few issues to eradicate off the beaten track yet super value for money.Pro Shop has a decent stock and are nice chaps. The bar and patio has all been refurbished and look great.
The changing facilities are a little tired but didn’t spoil our fun.

Fairways are shocking
Just read the comments below (obviously from a loyal member) saying "don't listen to the reviews the fairways are fine". As someone who has just left because of the condition of the course I can categorically say that are not fine. This course has a long standing issue with the fairways and they are absolutely shocking. Even spring/summer I was placing on the fairways to ensure I had a decent surface to play off.The bunkers are even worse. Full, and I mean full of stones with hardly any sand. This club are in serious denial and hold a very inflated opinion of themselves and their club.
I have to give credit to the greens, aprons and tees. They are immaculate.
The pro shop staff are also very welcoming and helpful too. Bit that's about it.
No booking system, no spike bar, antiquated rules, slow play and a boring up and down every hole course will await you

Forget everything negative you’ve read in previous reviews. Fairways are now in excellent condition, greens are to die for, clubhouse, patio and locker room have all been refurbished. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

After 7 weeks of course closure due to the corona virus lockdown, it was a wonderful experience to play on fairways and greens that had been nurtured and cared for by 2 members of the greenkeeping team. Really top class course in a beautiful setting tucked away in this corner of Staffordshire.Reviewer Rating

Oct 2019, fairways were very poor, uncut and bare in many places.
Greens decent, locker rooms need upgrade.

Lovely course
Superb greens, tees and surrounds. I played this course back in October and the presentation is far superior to previous years. Fairways are still needing some rain yet so are most places. I shall be returning as it is a very good test of golf and not a hit where you like course.Reviewer Rating
