Rouken Glen Golf Centre

After playing on council courses, this is a good step up. It's generally well maintained, with no ridiculous rough and nice wide fairways, perfect for beginner and intermediate players.

It's the beginning of the season, and there was some muddy areas on a few holes. On one hole, my friend's ball plugged in the fairway which wasn't ideal, but apart from that it was fine.

One thing I'd mention, there wasn't hole numbers for each hole, so as a first time player, it wasn't always obvious that we were on the correct hole. It's also helpful to have yardage markers at each tee, which was lacking.

I asked for 3 scorecards, but for some reason they only provided 1 per group, which I really don't understand. We paid £15 yet we were not allowed 3 bits of paper?

Overall though, it was very enjoyable and we will be playing again.

Its probably not the best idea to play your first 18 holes in 6 months at Rouken Glen .
Seeing that it was my first form of meaningful exercise in half a year my capacity for scaling the nearly Vertical slopes of the Outward nine turned out to be somewhat lacking.
Knackered by hole 4. The views are spectacular however. Its a course where you'll need good lob wedge skills if you come up short but there are some lovely driving holes too and some elevated tees to tempt you to bomb one onto the green far below. The putting surfaces could do with some TLC but all in all an enjoyable round with plenty par threes thrown in.
I'd advise some high altitude training tho!

This course I’ve played many of times great value for money don’t need to be a member to play this sometimes attracts people who don’t have any care for the course apart from that faultless

Superb value for money, nice course for beginner golfer

Course and green conditions considering we’ve had no rain and plenty of sun for the last 5/6 days was a joke. Greens are horrific and look like they’ve been neglected since last spring. Fair enough it’s only £10 a round but I wouldn’t play it again if you paid me.

First time playing at rouken and I thought the course was in good order even after all the bad weather we have had the layout of the course is great every hole is different and has its own little problems to deal with would recommend it to anyone and will be back in the summer

No flags in plays , no real effort on the course to show a clear route from hole to hole and very limited signage. Overall course has potentially but badly needs Improvements. Also Charging people to play when there’s no flags is poor.

Enjoyed my round but as said in other reviews the greens are in poor condition. Other than that nice variety of holes and friendly staff
