Burhill Golf Club, Exclusive Hire

I had the absolute pleasure of visiting Burhill Golf Club, and I must say, it was a truly exceptional experience! The course was immaculately maintained, with lush green fairways and challenging holes that tested my skills. The staff were friendly and welcoming, providing top-notch service from start to finish. .But what really stood out was the warm and inviting atmosphere - it felt like a true community of golf enthusiasts. I would highly recommend Burhill Golf Club to anyone looking for a fantastic golfing experience. 5 stars isn't enough - I'd give it 10 stars if I could! Can't wait to come back and play again soon!

As the flagship home of the Burhill group the clubhouse and facilities at the site are modern and user friendly. The clubhouse is a coverted stately home type buliding and finished to a lovely standard. The practice facilities are good with a multi bay range and practice green. I didn't see a specific chipping green or practice bunker so don't know whether they have one or not but you can practice low short running chips on the putting green. The pro shop is well stocked and as with the whole experience, the staff were helpful and friendly. I only played the Old Course which was a perfectly well maintained parkland course but to be honest rather lacked any character. There were no real beautiful holes or picturesque views other than looking across the course is mostly flat and interspersed with good tree coverage. Whilst it is longer than your average course, that was the main defence. The fairways were wide with trees separating them but there was still plenty of space to spray a driver around. The rough was quite punishing and the first cut was of a length that meant there was a decent challenge making a good contact with the ball but was not so difficult as to impede play. There were some nice shaped holes with dog legs, providing challenges and a few tight approach shots, but nothing that was particularly challenging. Overall, I found the course to be a nice well-presented fairly standard parkland course which was slightly more interesting on the back nine with the introduction of some undulation. This however, was missing on the first nine holes giving it a rather mundane experience. The group i played with all had similar views. We enjoyed the course. The greens and fairways were all in great condition and consistent however we would not rush back to play the old course and don't think that it represents great value for a stand alone round. I am however hoping to play the new course at some point in the future, which i am assured will have more of a championship feel. The old course i would score a 7 out of ten as a nice long parkland course with the club house and friendly staff bringing the score up a notch to 4 stars.
