I like this course mainly because of the cosmetics the layout is very attractive, reminiscent of Tourist Golf Courses in the US. Fairways are competitive, Lots of Trees and bunkers, add to that thick rough and Bondhay is a bit of a test if youre not on your game. Length can also be a problem to the higher handicapper. All in all for a so called "pay and play" this is really better suited to a Club Golfer with a handicap of below 14. A very good society venue.
Greens could be better.
Off course there is little interaction with members which has it's plus points. 19th facilities are average, dress code is relaxed, changing rooms could be vastly improved.
Although I have already stated that I like the course there are many peripherals that could be improved. Book your society days and enjoy, but research where you want to eat afterward if your demands are above 2 star dining. GOLF IS VERY GOOD.

Value For Money: Good Terry Sullivan February 22, 2013
You will enjoy this course if you like chipping out sideways. The fairways are in good nick but they are too narrow to be able to find them. If you don't go in the trees the bunkers will get you. The food is passable but the service is slow.
