De Vere Wychwood Park

Although the weather was rather wet and had been for a couple of days the course played amazingly well, and the greens were perfect.

Delighted with conditions in spite of a lot of rain over the past week. The course is quite long but has a wide range of tees to suit everyone. I chose the tees that led me in to most fairway bunkers, which was an error. Greens are terrific with huge undulations. The food and drinks were good but pretty pricey imo.

Everything about this course is excellent.. For this time of year the course was in an amazing condition.. Every hole is a challenge, either distance wise, bunkers, ponds or streams are always an issue.. loved it

Played a solo round but pace was good on a very hot evening. Good and varied course well recommended.

Now don’t get me wrong this course is tough. If you aren’t on your A game you will lose balls (rough is so penal - 5 yards of the fairway and you’ll lose a ball) and at the moment it is absolutely none hard and despite the greens being beautifully green they aren’t receptive at all. The greens are in very good condition and roll quick and true. We played the course in strong winds which always seemed to be in our faces and we’re glad we decided to play off the 138 tees as the 6400ish yards it was playing felt more like 7000! It’s such a stern test of golf and higher handicappers will struggle - if you play to handicap then you’ve played well. Good facilities including grass range and putting green. Very friendly starter/course Marshall.

One negative and this is a big one is the pace of play which was torturously slow. You should always expect a 4 hour plus round but having played here a lot today was the worst at over 5 hours as a 2 ball, not helped by us going off after 4 fourball all lady groups. They were painfully slow and almost spoiled the day for us but as they say a bad day on the course is better than a good day at work!

Course in beautiful condition and is long! I used the ‘ enjoyment tees’ brilliant idea, I always had a chance of reaching the green in regulation. Very enjoyable round! The shop/checking opens at 8:00am and I had a 7:00am tee time. No scorecard! That was my only negative.

I enjoy this course I used to be a member here and it was excellent and then it got neglected and I left. I was looking forward to playing it. 2 disappointments it’s been shortened which might make other people happy but I genuinely didn’t mind being beaten up by the it it was a tough test. My other problem was it’s expensive to play here. If you’re going to charge that kind of money then you should take care of the details. Put some sand in the bunkers and rake them and No I’m not talking about the ones being repaired. The greens were ok but no where near premium standard.
I like this course but at these prices I would sooner go to leek or trentham

Lovely course on a fabulous complex, was quite tricky but really well designed. The slope rating thing is quite confusing but easy to pick up, only slight issue was the condition of just off the fairway; lots of nettles, daisies and dandelion etc - ball went into a patch of daisys and couldn’t find it due to all the white! Skipped 3 holes as was getting on and in front of me was a 3 then 4 then 4, none of who were letting me through. Overall great course, would be a great venue for a weekend away with the lads (or lasses)!

This course is a must play, everything about it screams quality. From the moment you step on the first tee you know it’s going to be a top notch course. Greens are excellent, fairways too and there’s enough water on there to keep captain pugwash happy! £25 on a twilight is great value.

Course in fabulous condition bearing in mind the weather and time of the year. Credit to the green keepers. Shame that the club didn’t state carry bags only on their website before booking as it was a shock on arrival after checking website for details to find no trolleys allowed.. not great with a tour bag!

Do not waste your money playing this course until they either erect signs and hole numbers (there are none) and a course map on the score card (there isn’t one).
None of the tees have markers to tell you what you’re playing off, and unbelievably none of the holes even tell you what hole that you’re playing.
I got lost 3 times and then missed 4 holes and went from the 12th to the 17th and then realised my error when I got to the end of the 18th and the clubhouse.
Also, anything off of the fairway is 3-4 foot high rough and so take 2 boxes of balls if you can’t hit the fairway every time.
Absolute joke and a waste of time and money.
I will never play this course again.
