Assoufid 22/10/2019

5^th

Probably the best course in the area, far more contour than other courses and more trees to define fairways and make driving well a bit more critical than other local cou...

PalmGolf Ourika 22/10/2019

9^th

How this course is rated below Samanah is beyond me. A nicely undulating layout in excellent condition. Choose your tees carefully as it plays longer than its card yardag...

Samanah 22/10/2019

8^th

Flat and featureless not the most memorable of courses , indeed a week after playing the only holes that I can remember are 15 & 18. Wide fairways, waste areas and flat...

Aphrodite Hills 11/09/2018

2^nd

Course has recently been refurbed and was in excellent condition when we played. You need a buggy on this course as there are some pretty big distances between some green...

Beau Desert 28/08/2016

3^rd 55^th

Just wonderful, great variety of holes, most isolated , firm, fast greens. On a par with any Surrey/Berkshire course a must play if you are in the Birmingham area. Best c...

Royal Cromer 28/08/2016

5^th

Played in their Poppyland Trophy for the first time this year, will not be my last. Everyone from the Captain (great blazer) onwards was very welcoming and friendly. EXce...

Vilamoura (Old) 14/11/2015

4^th 7^th 45^th

The original and still the best course on the Algarve. You need to think your way around placing shots carefully between the pines. Excellent par 3's. Conditions perfect....

Amendoeira (Faldo) 14/11/2015

7^th 12^th

Excellent course with a wide variety of holes between the hillside and the valley. Par 4's of varying lengths, strong par 3's and one par 5 nearly 700 yards long. Excelle...

Vilamoura (Millennium) 14/11/2015

28^th

Interesting course but sadly in very poor condition, greens were the worst I have played on in some years, bumpy and full of disease which made putting an absolute lotter...

Secret Valley 12/10/2015

3^rd

Basically a good holiday layout spoilt by poor levels of maintenance. Not a long course but shot placement required particularly off the tee where trouble awaits on both...

Elea 12/10/2015

1^st

A wonderful course sadly spoilt a little by a poor location next door to a factory estate. Generous off the tee and very well bunkered. The 9th is a good par 5 over water...

Villamartin 31/10/2014

12^th 67^th

A good course in need of lots of TLC, tees were awful and bunkers had the consistency of concrete.Some excellent holes, par 5 14th. is as good a hole as you will play any...

Aroeira 1 24/11/2013

8^th 22^nd

An tree lined course spoilt by its lack of care. Greens were patchy and many tees so poor that a level lie was almost impossible. Many holes are very "samey" the pick bei...

Aroeira 2 24/11/2013

11^th 37^th

Much tougher test than 1 but like that course in need of decent maintenance. Tees were rough and not very level and the course was really overwatered for the time of the...

Palmares (Praia & Lagos) 29/09/2013

2^nd 5^th 38^th

Great course cannot understand why its only rated 23.Lovely variety of holes ranging from tight tree lined holes up and down the rise to the clubhouse and wonderful links...

Moortown 13/09/2013

3^rd 53^rd

Par 71, SSS 74 tells you everything you need to know. Lots of 400yd. plus par 4's make this a severe test 13th. probably being the pick of them. Strong par 3's with 10th....

Ganton 13/09/2013

1^st 9^th 26^th 77^th

Played Ganton as part of the Lexus challenge and cannot rate the course highly enough. Penal fairway and greenside bunkers, undulating greens, springy fairways giving goo...

The Belfry (PGA National) 15/10/2012

13^th

"The National" is a very pretentious title for a truly forgetable golf course. In fairly decent condition, tees, greens and bunkers but most holes are very "samey" and ba...

Knebworth 25/09/2012

15^th

The only down sides to an otherwise excellent course are the constant drone of traffic from the nearby A1M and the dominance of the Glaxo building at the bottom of the co...

Royal Cinque Ports 22/06/2012

2^nd 12^th 31^st 95^th

A real old fashioned links, undulating fairways and greens, rivetted bunkers and fierce rough a treat for those who love this style of golf. Last 6 holes into prevailing...
