What the club says: The Woolston Manor course was designed using the natural features of the land, in particular the river Roding which meanders throughout the course. Neil Coles MBE and David Williams designed the 18 hole championship course which was opened in the spring of 1994. The course measures 6510 yards from the white tees with a par of 72. The legendary Gary Player described it as one of the best young courses that he had ever played - praise indeed!

I was a member here years ago so thought we’d go back. Unfortunately it’s a Tip. Mid November, hardly any rain and the fairways are a bog! Greens were solid yet ridiculously slow? The bunkers were wet yet we’ve had no rain. For £32 you can play toot hill which is miles apart from this. I wouldn’t pay £10. Never again.

Sand bunkers full of water, fairways need cutting, little or no maintenance. Not worth the ?32.Reviewer Rating

Sort the bunkers
The bunkers had no sand in them or were churned up as if under construction, but no signs saying any were GUR, and the Pro shop made no mention of the state of the bunkers when booking. Them charging standard price when all the bunkers are unplayable is a bit ridiculous - it's the height of summer; if the course is undergoing major works, this should be made clear and a discount on the green fee given.Reviewer Rating

Course in reasonable condition, good challenge to think your way around it. All bunkers GUR, all sand removed to allow drainage works. Clubhouse in need of a lot of TLC, not a great advert for the place. Bit overpriced for the condition of facilities.

A good challenge
We like to play Woolston Manor every now and then because it definitely presents a greater challenge than other courses in the area. It's a good layout where birdie chances are few and far between. However, although I know we have had a lot of rain, it was disappointing to find that every bunker was a pond! Otherwise the course was in pretty good condition.Reviewer Rating

Never again, so very slow
Attempted to play Woolston Manor this morning. We had booked a 10:15 tee time as part of the breakfast deal. Turned up and the car park was packed, I should have know then what I was in for. The full English breakfast was good and the service in the equally good. We went to the first tee in plenty of time only to find out that a competition had gone out before us. We finally teed off at 10:45. The pace of play was so slow, it took an hour to play the first three holes. There was no marshal on the course to ensure pace of play was kept up, making it ridiculous trying to play. I waled off after 5 holes and my playing partners lasted another two holes and then walked off. The club had squeezed too many tee times in, with this being the case there should have been a starter and an on course marshal. I will never play this course again at the weekend, there are plenty more locally that are far better.Reviewer Rating

Worth a visit
Nice challenging course. Despite wet conditions greens very good, some water laying in some numbers,and sand very compact due to recent heavy rain. Some fairways very wet and soggy, boggy in places. But still a nice club to visit, staff excellent.Reviewer Rating

Avoid after rain
When playing this past weekend at Woolston Manor, we found that the fairways were waterlogged and almost unplayable. Bunkers were GUR and all full of water, and tee boxes were in poor condition.Although the greens were well maintained and quick.
