Course Reviews

I've been a member at Ramside since it opened. It's a demanding course, where shot placement is at a premium. There are seven lakes and a number of small ponds to contend with. And as the newly planted copses grow in, the fairways are becoming tighter all the time. The Par 3, 15th is the signature hole.

I have been a member at the Ramside for 4 years now, and the course has improved dramatically each year. The Ramside is a great challenge for all levels of golfer. Since the blue stakes were removed last year, all trees are now in play making the Ramside a real thinking golfers course.

Played in a large comp at Ramside 16/9/02. I enjoyed the layout of the front 9 which has some super holes - 1st (demanding drive for A1 position) 2nd (go for it for a birdie chance at a short-ish par 5) 6th - a short par 4 with water guarding the green, 7th - go short and safe or take on the lake splitting the fairway for an easy birdie. The 2nd 9 takes some getting used to, with 2 90 degree par 5's where you were at a loss what to hit off the tee, but the 15th makes up for that - a delightful 172 yd par 3 over water which tests the bravest! Didn't get to play the Cathedral loop which is shorter and looks much less developed. Now has 14 lakes, but not all come into play. Greens were true but impossible to read and fairly inconsistent, with some evil pin positions. Lots of new trees with staking a lottery. Off-course facilties excellent - check out the massage chair in the plush changing rooms! Food was iffy - but there were 80 of us. All in all worth a visit if you're in the area.
