Birchwood Park Golf & Country Club

First off it looks lovely when you show up with the clubhouse but it's downhill from there. Just so you know I spent £70 for two people and a buggy. Was a deal for after two, otherwise it's £35 per person without a buggy. Staff were fine, friendly, professional no problem there but my issue is the price you pay for what you get. Now I'm not a snob but at Mardyke in Essex their carts have GPS for the holes and are nice, you have basic ones here. Costs about £20 to play there so you'd think for £35 per person you'd get top tier equipment. Also the cart path is non existent and confusing to get around certain parts. Course itself was nice but nothing amazing, some left some right, no water holes apart from it being a hazard on two holes. The greens were very good and challenging to be fair. My biggest issue here was 3 holes had loads of work being done, two had temporary greens, and that's fine but there was no mention of that booking online or when we got our scorecard otherwise I definitely wouldn't of booked. And to pay full price for that amount of work going on is disgusting. Just a shame really, expected alot more for the price you pay. My advice is go play cranham, Essex, for £18, impeccable course and well maintained. And if they are doing work they tell you.

Upkeep is very poor of this place. Swimming pool and showers have mould build up. Locker rooms are super cold and benches have mud on them because dirty golf players bring mud in and do not bother cleaning after themselves. Swimming is always occupied by lessons and old people dancing classes. Very limited restricted timings to take kids to their pool.

Attended our social club's annual BBQ & disco. Easily accessible by car with plenty of parking. Food was good and plentiful, with dietary restrictions catered for. Unfortunately there was no aircon in the function room which became quite uncomfortable on a hot, humid night, even with the patio doors open, and the dance floor was microscopic.

Lovely range and staff, but don’t bother showing up for a bucket of balls after work on a Friday as you may not get to hit. Arrived Friday 17:45 when Google said the driving range was only “a little busy”. In fact it was FULL and looking like a 30 min wait for even a single bay to open up. I left disappointed. Would be nicer if half the bays weren’t reserved for premium-paying customers.

We provided casino tables for a charity fundraiser here , lovely venue the decor was stunning a lot of effort had been put in in making the space glamorous and comfortable.staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend as a great venue for any event.
