Municipal Expectations

On arrival Reception was closed due to Staff shortages. We proceeded to the 1st tee and got on with our round. This was the course I learned to play golf on about 30 years ago and it has matured well. The greens were good if not a bit slower than I would like but still they were good especially for the price of a round. Overall the course is short but still challenging even with the amount of the public walking through and around the parkland golf course. At the 18th we encountered 2 youngsters walking straight across the green as we were about to tee off and had to shout for them to get off the green, could've been a nasty injury if we had tee'd off. But overall a very enjoyable round and good memories of playing here from 30 years ago.

No staff. No order

When we first arrived we straight away noticed a big queue waiting to play the first hole. As we approached the reception it was obvious that it was closed due to the roller shutter doors being down. There was a few score cards on the floor and a sign saying reception was closed for the whole day. I had booked the earliest tee time available in order for me to play my round and get home so I could go to work. The queue to start the first tee off already put us 20 minutes behind. After a couple of holes in became apparent that there was some kind of senior golf tournament taking place. There’s slow play and there’s SLOW PLAY! None of the groups in front let us play through. After 3 and a half hours we had played 12 holes . We should have been long gone by then. Unfortunately I had to leave at that point to go to work. Leaving me unsatisfied and very frustrated. 16 pound for a very poor experience, I will not be going back to play again.

Cannock Park Golf Club

This golf course is run by the people who look after the leisure services in Cannock, enjoyed the game and was good value for money. Needs some TLC and due to recent weather conditions, it was a little bit scruffy (tees & greens). I would recommend to others to play once. There are no course facilities and no clubhouse, so the 19th hole would be a local pub.

In need of TLC

This course is a good layout but lacks some loving care as some greens are in poor condition . With some well placed trees and water hazards the course has some good challenges.
The only staff member was the lady at the reception who was very nice and helpful
With some TLC this course can the a great value for money course again

What you expect

Decent 18 hole lay out with some tricky tee shots. For a municipal course it was impressive however the greens were poor and bobbly. Not the worst I’ve played but couldn’t read a put all day. The only other down side was that there were the people walking around the course throughout the day with paths leading around and through. Couple of times you would have a shot at the green and there would be someone walking towards you to the right of the fairway... thin it right and you’ve killed someone.
Overall tho good municipal course however if they could just get the greens in better shape it would be a so much better

Poor Greens

Played Sunday course overall not too bad pace of play was good once the 2 guys who jumped on the course off Stafford road went! Pity about the greens! Cannot believe they are so bad considering no one has been near for months until 29th March made putting difficult
But weather was good so good just to be able to get out of the house and enjoy golf

Greens
