Gatton Manor - Surrey - England

I was very pleasantly surprised by the superb quality of the layout at Gatton Manor. - a collection of really varied and interesting holes which stretches to over 6,600 yards from the tips.. At no point do you feel like you are plodding up and down a field which is so often the case at courses in the lower price bracket. Unfortunately, however, the presentation of the course was poor when I played it in December with all of the bunkers GUR but a new owner has vowed to invest in this facility and the starting point is a really strong one because it offers the lot: Elevation changes, a drivable par 4, dog legs and a monster par 5 of 585 yards if that is your cup of tea!. Keep an eye on this one because Gatton is nowhere near maximising its truly strong potential. I will certainly return next summer to see if any of the investment has started to bear fruit.

Shame, used to be good. Nice setting with a good variation of holes but now this is a course with zero maintenance and many poor to unplayable tee boxes. Its simply just been left.

Should no longer be on this list.

Played Gatton manor this weekend just gone. paid £40 for the pleasure. Tees were in awful condition, many bunkers were GUR as were many areas on the greens. lots of bare baked mud patches evident.

Green were surprisingly good, but rest of course was very poor in condition.

18th green complex is interesting to say the least!

Like previous reviewer mentioned, this course is fine if you want a group game on a weekend, as easy to book tee times. But don't expect a great course in good condition.

A decent quality and value pay and play course, good for societies and corporate groups (hence can be busy) in very pretty countryside.

Some nice mature trees, the garden and rockery can come into play on the last, and the elevated loop that comprises the bulk of the back nine has some nice holes with drop offs if off line. A reasonable choice if in a larger group, or looking for a game at the weekend when members' courses in the area tend to be hard to get on.

A perfectly fine course for a nice round, but nothing to get too excited about really until the 18th hole, a short extremely pretty par 4 where a birdie as well as a double/triple is easily scored. Great to conclude a tight match.

I wouldn’t go out of my way to play here, but if invited or are staying nearby then it’s a nice way to spend a few hours. A typical parkland course, condition was pretty good although it can get quite busy at weekends as it’s a club very welcoming to visitors.
