Having just played this course, I would echo some of the previous comments.....

It is a little flat but water comes in to play on several holes. It is well-maintained, with excellent bunkers and lightning greens, despite the recent rain providing a thoroughly enjoyable round.

I used a 2-fore-1 voucher on a weekend, otherwise £45 is far too expensive. Under £25 is a lot more reasonable.

I didn't get chance to use the off-course or practise facilities.

In a nice part of the country, I would gladly play here again.

A new course opened in 1998 that I played 3 or 4 years ago, and played again this year. I was quite disappointed how little the course had matured, with it still having quite a barren feel. The course is flat, fairly featureless parkland stretching down to the River Thames, but the river is barely noticeable except for beside the 15th. General layout and maintenance of the course is average. Quite expensive for what it is unless using a 241 voucher or other discount scheme. Might try it again in another 3 or 4 years to see if it has matured further.

The course itself is not bad - but a bit flat. Greens were pretty good. Some interesting holes with water, plenty of bunkers. A couple of "fill in" holes when you go through the other side of a hedge. Played in April for £10 when you book online which is fantastic value but normally £35 I would say is at least £10 too expensive.

Very nice clubhouse though.

Mr How's comments should be removed if he does not know who Brian Huggett is. Brian is a very competent golf course architect, not to mention one our finest Ryder cuppers. Ive never played the Springs so cant comment, but the prices seem fair. Looks worth a visit to me.

Played the course in September. Found the greens running true, not overly fast but they were going in. Very well stocked pro shop, I even had a lesson with one of the Pro's- David...very helpful too-computer analysis thrown in too. Terrific value also.

I found the whole club very welcoming. From the moment the friendly Pro and his staff welcomed us, to the hearty bacon rolls before our round to the wide choice of specials on offer for lunch afterwards.

Unlike some other people that have commented so far I have no problem with the price, in fact at only £29 per person I find it to be just under the average for the BB&O area.

I would recomend you play as I think it's a hidden gem. Better than any other local venues for sure! *****
