I am a member a Hart commom, when I first started playing I was a 30 handicapper (jnr) I now have a handicap of 18 a year later so the course isn't very challenging as you can blast a driver down the fairway and end up with a short iron in on most of the holes, however the 8th, 9th and 10th are difficult. The 6th and 7th holes are pathetic as they have just put the pin in the middle of the fairway due green improvements. However their are going to be three new holes brought into play in the near future. Overall I only pay £120 for a jounior membership.

I play this course twice a week every week of the year, yes it is open in winter using the normal greens. this is a challenging course for all classes of player, with some very long par 4's and very difficult par 3's.

At present there is a lot of course rebuilding work, which is ongoing,(this is reflected in the low cost of green fees), and means that you have to accept some long walks between greens and tees. The 7th and 8th are very temporary greens (winter type on the fairway, the distance and par have been cut to reflect this)and you can see the new greens are coming on well. If you don't want to walk the course it is possible to hire a buggy at very reasonable rates.

When the re-building and designing is complete the course will be to PGA/USPGA standard, and I don't think we will have long to wait for this.

The Staff (mostly family) are very helpful and friendly and meals served in the club house are made to order and always fresh.

I have seen a few of adverse comments about the course, which are not quite justified, but any person turning up to play are told of the situation on the course and if you get lost, there are plenty of players/members who know the course who will gladly put you on the right track.

in a couple of years this will be one of the must play courses in the region.

I have been plying this course every monday eve for the past 10 weeks and it has got better every week! But the members have now insisted it goes back 18 holes which is all well and good but the 7th and 8th greens are bad as they are new greens made in an instant! give this course time and it will become a great course Thanks Geoff Peacock

Despite a number of reports that this course is currently in awfull condition I have enjoyed an occasional round there for about the last 3 years. Yes, there is work going on at the moment. Yes, some areas look like a building site. Yes, the layout changes and sometimes involves a walk between holes. However, when all is said and done I don't play golf for 5-star treatment, I play because I like it and I found this course to be in decent condition considering the green fees and providing you make some allowances for the ongoing improvements. With reference to the improvements some of the new holes were open when I played and I must say that they look and play great. I for one will definitely return when work is complete and probably before.

To say i was dissapointed with this course is an understatement. Starting with the clubhouse. Food is OK, facilities very basic, atmosphere akin to a motorway service station cafe. The course is little better. in fact, the course is much worse. The teeing areas are pathetically maintained, and the greens are even worse. There is vety little grass on most of the greens, drainage on them is almost non existant and lining up putts is utterly pointless. The course appears to meander through an industrial tipping area. There are mounds of bricks, rubble and tarmac everywhere. Couse logistics are laughable. The distance between some holes is almost par 5 length and you find yourself walking back up fairways which are in play. There is little definition betwen rough, fairway and green (except you can see the greens becuse they are brown). teeing areas are littered with rubbish and it generally looks like the course is maintained by a herd of goats. there was not a single rake in any bunker. I understand the course is being 'redeveloped' although I can't see how, when all the rubble is covered and grassed, this will make th course any better. I think it is an utter discgrce that the course charges people full price, and never advises anyone at the time of booking of the condition of the course. i would not play this course again if it was free, and if I never played it again, it would be too soon. An utter discgrace.
