Not impressed
Course in need of considerable attention, this must have been a lovely course at some time.Fairways full of cut grass which "hides" golf ball
Greens patchy and full of moss
Lack of direction signs to next hole etc

Shocker!!
OMG!!! Avoid at all costs a shocking course, could be really nice but lack of upkeep make it like playing on a field that's not even fit for purpose. Greens what greens I've seen better fairways . A real shame. A thoughtful design but let down by th condition.Reviewer Rating

course bad condition
played here a few times but the last time i played with 3 other friends and the course was in a poor state, the greens are bare of grass in the majority of them and need water and feeding the fairways are not that good either, all in all the the course needs a lot of TLC and nurturing. Also booked and paid for in advance a bacon sandwich and a cuppa followed by a roast beef dinner after the golf only to be told after we finished our round by the owner that he had sold all the beef so he had defrosted 4 pieces of fish so we could have fish and chips, not happy. there was also a party of about 12 -15 lads on the course and after we finished our dinner 6 of them went back on the 1st tee and running to try and hit the ball just like Happy Gilmore only they were missing and taking chunks out of the turf there, the owner just looked and made the the comment who is that and then said oh its only them and did nothing . not good in my opinion. £15 a round on sundays think i will give it a miss from now on and dont advise anyone else to play will pay more on to play rather than Horncastle GolfReviewer Rating

I can only endorse previous comments, the new owners are working hard to try and turn round years of neglect. The course is improving, and the food, clubhouse, and friendly staff are great.\\\\If the golfing community don\\\\\\\'t support people who are putting in real effort, we can\\\\\\\'t complain if courses continue to disappear in the future.\\\\Ok, it\\\\\\\'s not in the same league as Woodall spa, but neither is the price, come on folks, give these folks a bit of support, give it a go.

Course not in good condition at the moment as the crows have dug up a lot of the fairways looking for worms and it is quite bad. The greens are long and slow for putting but hard for chipping or holding.
I am just playing this course at the moment to keep my swing in.

Played Horncastle 14th April. I agree with some comments regarding course conditions. This course was only taken over by new owners in February this year having been neglected for some time by the previous owner.( 3 Toro cutting machines rusting by the greenkeepers shed) The new owners have plans to reverse this neglect and deserve support to enable them to improve conditions on what is potentially an interesting layout. All it requires is tlc and time. Help them out and give it a go. If golfers do not support this type of enterprise then it will become just another statistic on the list. The food and clubhouse welcome were both excellent and the clubhouse itself was very good. £10 for a round midweek won't break the bank .

Not a bad golf course but could do with spending a little time and care on the greens as they are a little scabby, Also a few direction signs guiding you to the next tee would be hand but all in all not too bad. Friendly staff and a nice drink afterwards.

Must be the worst course in Linconlshire. Tight uncut fairways, small greens which aren't maintained, need water and poor grass with molehills!!! Unfriendly owner with poor clubhouse facilities. Pay the extra and find a good course. Will never play it again.

Shortish tight course set in lovely surroundings, needs accurate tee shots due to plenty of trees that line the fairways, bunkers have been left to grass over, water hazards protect many of the greens which are well thought out if rather small. The course looks neglected & needs a lot of work, rough is very rough. Greens are neglected and of poor quality. My party paid £10 each for a round which before the round we thought was good. After a few holes we regretted it. Would not recommend this course to any friends in it's present state.

Played on a Groupon so great value. stunning fairways. greens were horrendous, looked like they hadn't seen water for weeks and were cracking in every direction. Course layout was a bit hectic, crossing other fairways to get between greens and tees. I would like to go back if the greens were as nice as the fairways!

A beautiful course and in great shape. I understand the owners have spent over £250k on improvements and it shows. Still very fairly priced. We had breakfast with golf And a lovely Sunday roast for £19. Members are very friendly. Safe to say any previous faults have been rectified. Will highly recommend it to anyone who likes a challenge!

I've just joined this club, nice atmosphere and a good place for high handicappers to play and not feel like they are being ridiculed. Price of a round/membership reflects the basic nature, but for me, this is exactly what I need. For the price of membership here, I can play regularly here and enjoy a round or too elsewhere. V friendly!

Firstly, the greens are hard. However, the chap in the clubhouse spoke at length about how they are combatting this. This is a lovely little club, it is NOT an easy course by any stretch. I'd like to see some sand in the bunkers but apart from that, I think it's a super course and deserves support. Will definitely be back!
