Birley Wood Golf Club Player Reports

Course is excellently prepared, not the most challenging. One or two greens not great (1st in particular). Unfortunately had problems with local players on a few occasions, which completely detract from all the positives.

When deemed to be playing too slow despite keeping up easily with the group in front (Which oddly never let you through) it is customary to have shouts of disapproval from the group behind while putting and even balls fired at you to speed you up. All this when playing a 3.5hr round which in anyone’s book on a busy Saturday muni is a reasonable pace.

So good course let down by the locals on numerous occasions

Ive played the course regularly and must give local golfers this advice.Because of its position and drainage this course is seldom not in play. In the winter months because of the quality of the greens,temps are seldom in use.It always seems playable ,when other courses have closed due to the weather.So if your desperate for you winter golf fix, always try Birley first,it always comes up smelling of roses.

I have played at Birley Golf course a few times now, I am a beginner at golf but thoroughly enjoy it. Having only been to Birley I cannot comment on other courses or compare but I think Birley is a great course.

Interesting course with wonderful views, nice mixture of holes. But could do with some direrction markers for strangers visiting. Greens and fairways in good condition. Prices reasonable.
