Quirky, but well worth playing here.

Arriving at Painswick before the pro shop was open, we were warmly greeted by members who helped get us pointed in the right direction.

Painswick isn't a long course, and it doesn't have any bunkers, but it has lots of craters and hollows, small greens, a couple of short blind par 3's, and is a lot of fun.

It's also on a hill and is very scenic. The downside is that for some it won't be an easy walk, and on windy days (or very windy days, like my round today) it is very exposed.

What didn't I like? The 17th is played across a crossroads, and the potential to either a) have your shot bouncing down the road, or b) hitting a car which suddenly appears half way through your back swing, is a possibility. There are also a couple of shared fairways which I imagine can get busy, and that's without the walkers out with their dogs.

Overall though I really enjoyed playing here, and look forward to giving it another go soon.

A cool little course with unique features, fun.

Painswick is a parkland/common course which is shared by dog walkers, horse riders and the general public attracted to the pleasant scenery and beacon views.

A quirky short course which features an iron age fort at the top of the hill. One par 3 requires you to fire the ball blindly over the old fort wall, now a large grass embankment.

Long grass, the odd tight fairway and some beautifully wide open decending tee shots make this fun to play.

The course feels quite rough and ready in places, quite wild and probably hard to maintain - for £20 a round it's reasonable for the condition. The members there seem to really love it and are welcoming to visitors, clubhouse friendly.
