Addington Court Golf Club

Played here on a cool summers' day and thoroughly enjoyed the course!

Nestled in Surrey Downs in South London, the clubhouse is traditional (if not a little scruffy in places), however, all the staff were friendly and welcoming.

The course is parkland in terrain and the layout is a mixture of sloping Par 4's and tight Par 3's.

It had been suggested that Addington Court was a little tired but on the contrary, I think this course is a great challenge and whilst not overly long, you can be caught out be well-positioned bunkers and sloping greens.

It could be argued that the fairways need some TLC but considering this was August, I would expect some browning of the short stuff.

In short, I really enjoyed the course and I think the venue will make for a great TSG Matchplay final, as the course can be played either sensibly or aggressively.

The choice is yours...

I will definitely be playing the course again!

This wasn't a great start. I'd bought a 7am tee time online, their website said the course was open from 7am, and when I got there I found out that they don't open until 7.30. The guy in the shop apologised, which was appreciated, but you kinda think that someone needs to be making sure the details don't get forgotten.

There are two 18 holes courses here, the Falconwood and the Championship, and neither are especially long (both are under 5300 yds from the yellows). There are a few climbs though, so consider a buggie if you aren't a fan of hills.

The Falconwood is the cheaper course, and it certainly feels like that when you play both on the same day. The fairways are wide, the greens are small, but the condition is far better than a lot of reviews I'd seen had suggested. The bunkers aren't great and some are GUR, but you have the option to just not go in them :)

The Championship course just feels a lot nicer. The fairways are still pretty generous, and the greens are both larger and in very good condition. The bunkers looked a lot better too, although I didn't get to experience any of them first hand (yay!).

Both courses are very scenic, and both have great layouts and some pretty holes. If I lived closer then I'd certainly be playing here more often.

The clubhouse is very basic and the staff very helpful and friendly.

The ladies changing room was surprisingly inhospitable. The area where there are lockers, hairdryers, sockets and towels is behind a padlocked wrought iron gate. I naturally presumed someone from the bar would unlock this for guests, but was told keys were only held by the lady members. Therefore I had to change in a tiny area next to the ladies and there was nowhere to lock anything, so I had to leave my valuables in the car which was not desirable.

My disappointment was pushed to one side upon receipt of one of the best value breakfasts I have had - way too much for most of us!

The course was very muddy and there are a lot of par 3's so you should be able to plot your way to a bandit score. I couldn't hit a ball, but it didn't stop me enjoying the fresh air, views and the company.

Not a golf course I would rush to play again.

Usual pay and play gripes (bunkers more stones than sand, greens a bit tatty but mostly ran true). But most holes are quite interesting, not an overly long course but is not hugely open.

Cart and 18 holes for £22.50 each (includign 2 for 1 voucher mid week at 12 tee off.

Greens in ok condition and some interesting holes on the course. A decent challenge but not particularly long. Great for starters, to just boost your confidence, or practise your short game.

nice layout, terrible greens

A Crown club. Enjoyed my first visit here. The course is relatively short but the regular changes in elevation make it an interesting challenge. The fairways were rather dry and patchy but the greens were EXCELLENT. Clubhouse and locker room very basic - very good coffee.

Well i have been here twice this year and on both dates, the course was fine, but sadly today was and is my last visit for the year. The fairways are fine, greens are in such a bad state i couldn't believe it unless i didn't see it for myself and the bunkers well, more like stone holes and are so hard or with water in them and of course full of stones( where was the sand ). I have to admit SUNBURY GOLF COURSE is about 10 times better which is a shame. SACK SOMEONE, I WOULD WITH THE GREEN KEEPERS.
