What the club says: Iford Golf Centre is home to the Bridge Course and offers a more traditional golfing challenge as a full, par 72, meadowland course that is set up to make golf enjoyable. It is fairly flat site and this makes playing the course relatively undemanding physically and therefore suitable for all ages, although we have a fleet of buggies available for much of the year.

The Stour Course is our par 3 course, offering holes from 80-150 yards, and is therefore ideal for juniors, relatively new players or better players looking to focus on their short game

Scenic

Very scenic and easy to reach course with some punishing challenges if you hit poorly off the fairway. Tends to get heavy in winter and grass along the fairways could do with more regular cutting, although I realise the heavy ground may prevent this. Good, testing length and some water hazards (especially on the 9th) add to the challenge.

Improving from winter

All the signs of growth are now starting to show through. Tees fairways and greens all so much better. Worth a visit especially during the week when it can be quieter. Some good offers making this affordable

Only out for money

An awful setup clearly out to get just as much money as they can whilst providing the most basic service, they've now come down to 4 minutes between tee times with no Marshall so play is ridiculously slow, the state of the driving range and the balls on the range are a disgrace, the bins on the courses were all overflowing they really need to start thinking about their customers satisfaction rather than just their profits
