I spent the afternoon with Colin in a small group. His knowledge is outstanding and was presented in a relaxed and informative way, for us to all understand. He was very patient with me asking him to repeat himself... I'm testament that you certainly can teach an old dog new tricks! I highly recommend his coaching. Thank you Colin

Both me and my son have been having lessons from Colin, and I can't recommend him highly enough! He's not only incredibly skilled but also down-to-earth and genuinely invested in helping his students improve. He takes the time to break down each part of the swing, focusing on the details that make a difference, and he always makes sure I understand each step before moving on. It's clear he loves the game and enjoys teaching it. Highly recommended!

I've had a couple of really helpful lessons with Natalie. She listens carefully as I try to explain where I think I need to improve and she has lots of ideas that I'm sure will help. I have a slight issue with a stiff back and Natalie is looking into good stretches to help with this and to avoid future problems.

The best golf lesson I’ve ever had! Natalie’s teaching technique gives you so much confidence. Really enjoyed my 1st lesson with Natalie & looking forward to improving my game.

I've joined Natalie's Learn to Play Golf level 1 sessions. I'm really enjoying the lessons and feel that I'm making progress. Natalie is an excellent coach, patient and encouraging . She emphasises the basics, so we can build on firm foundations

Having never even picked up a club I decided to have a taster session today with Natalie at Sherborne. I absolutely loved the taster session. Natalie encouraged me right from the beginning by showing me how to hold the club, what to work on and her enthusiasm and encouragement were amazing. I am so excited about future lessons with my new venture. Thank you so much.

Just finished another brilliant lesson with Natalie. She is gradually reconstructing my swing (full of bad habits) with much patience and positivity. Now every time I go to the golf range or course I see significant improvement. A 30 minute lesson can make such a difference and Natalie makes it fun too!

Had a great day out at Bulbury today. The course is tight in places and very unforgiving if you stray off the fairway. It was in excellent condition. The staff made you feel very welcome and were very friendly.

A lovely golf course, well worth the visit. This course is not the longest if courses, but is nonetheless quite challenging. Researching the layout before attending will help you. Really nice clubhouse and friendly staff. Also a well stocked little shop. A couple of driving nets to warm up, or if you want, a driving range to practice at. If the weather has been very wet, there will be standing water, although the drainage is very good, it can be overwhelmed. I will 100% play here again.

We played a Dorset past captains match versus Hampshire past captains ⛳️ The course was in excellent condition very well manicured, the greens were very fast and true. The catering was also good and all the staff were very friendly. The club captain was in our first group out and he set a high standard with his course knowledge,well played Rob ⛳️ if you are in the area I would recommend a visit for a good challenging game and the bar is just the job on a hot day sitting on the patio 🏖️ or just pop in for a bit to eat and a drink🍹

We try to play a different course each week. This was delightful to play !! Beautiful tree-lined fairways...very narrow in places...lots of par 4's and 5 in the 1st 9. Many undulations, sloping fairways, hills, and doglegs left and right gets you golf fit pushing your cart. Tricky approaches coming in to some "fast & foxy" greens. This 18 hole course has a great layout. Extremely friendly members and staff. The facilities are modern and inviting. We will definitely be back as it was only 20 min from home. What a find. ⛳😁🏌️♀️

Lovely golf venue with 3 9 hole courses, all 3 are a good challenge and normally in really good condition. Pro shop is well stocked and the staff are friendly. The clubhouse is large and has ample seating inside and out, good range of beers and Cider, food is also spot on. Across the road they have a large trackman equipped driving range which is great for warming up before a round.

We stayed in a lodge which was spacious and well equipped. Just a short walk to the restaurant and facilities at the clubhouse. Indoor short mat bowls,and what looked like a good golf course although we didn't use it

Just returned from a one night and two round stay. We had an enjoyable time and the golf course was in superb condition. All three 9’s were a challenge in their own way. All staff were very helpful and the bar staff in particular kept the bar open late in the evening for us, thanks for that. Only negative was the Halfway House was shut both days and during peak times when a lot of golfers wanted a mid round snack.

Specifically a review on the coaching and Pro Shop. Had lessons with Bailey Birch since the beginning of this year. Couldn’t have imagined such a big change in my swing and my enjoyment of the game since having lessons with him. Lessons in particular are very good. Lots of important information and always a positive outcome with a specific working point to work on inbetween lessons. This always led to a visible solid improvement without overloading me on too many issues with my swing at once. Couldn’t recommend him enough if considering lessons whether it’s a playing lesson, range session or in the simulator.

One of the top 100 golf courses in GB. Harry Colt design, very beautiful throughout, but very unforgiving. If you in doubt, then think twice before you hit……

Visited the clubhouse restaurant for a Sunday roast. Lovely friendly atmosphere and excellent customer service. The food was really good and arrived quickly to our table. Generous portion sizes and waitress looked after us throughout our meal. I would recommend booking a table in advance as it gets quite busy as very popular!! I'm definitely visiting again as I heard their full English breakfast is amazing. Highly Recommend.

Best Sunday roast by far. Excellent food and great value.

We had originally planned to meet at a pub just down the Road, but it was closed . Another person in the car park recommended the golf club and we weren't disappointed. The menu was limited but sufficient. We were made very welcome by the person serving. The food was freshly prepared and jolly good, the others had a pudding which was also reported to be very good. We will be sure to visit again

Course is in great condition ,fairways are good and greens are well looked after. The clubhouse serves some great food and has good beers on tap. The pro shop has some good stock and plenty of items. Staff are really friendly and helpful.

Well well what can I say about Ashley wood the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow its the first time I've played here and probably the best course in Dorset that doesn't require a handicap to attend. Had a quick bite before we started pleasantly surprised booked a buggy as I knew slope index would be high and man in pro shop matched the hot deal price as it's cheaper so value for money was great. Didn't get my best score but got a few pars thanks to the tattooed golf coach Harry shaws lessons at parley and the views here at blandford were picturesque and course is well looked after and we play quick with the buggy and slower group in front let us through pretty quick which was great only wished I lived closer to the course as I'd loved to be a member here but we'll worth the 45 minute drive so we'll be visiting again very soon.

A very friendly welcome from the pro shop on arrival with a good hearty breakfast in the clubhouse with a warm welcome. Weather conditions were overcast with a good downpour after 15 holes,but this did not stop us having a good days golf ⛳️. The course was heavy under foot from the previous day’s ☔️ rain but the fairways were nice to play off if played clean off the preferred lies, as for the greens they are very fast for November and very true. All in all a good away day worth a trip 👍

Such a lovely golf club, came here to practice our swing (not very experienced golfers). The range is beautiful and you can hit off real grass, a useful experience when you're a beginner. The putting/pitching course is amazing. Visited the gold shop to look around and the service was really friendly, didn't feel out of place. Wish I was good enough to go out on the green, must be amazing.

A good friend and I travelled to play an open competition at Sherborne recently. Not only was the course in good condition, but the staff made us feel very welcome and appreciated. Even the captain made time to introduce himself and make us feel at home. This course will ask questions of anyones game, regardless of ability. If you’re thinking about visiting, then book yourself in, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you to all concerned.

Played here today as a 4 ball.....course was lovely, been here plenty of times, but not for sometime! Greens really good, fairways had what looked like wild pig areas, where they had been dug up and damaged by the creatures. Given this is a municipal course it's brilliant, the workers do an amazing job. The negatives for me are the fact that other players, whether a member or a pay and play visitor there is absolutely no need to be so lazy to not repair your pitchmarks, or rake the bunker when you've hacked your 1st or 4th attempt out! They've left masses of rakes out there, it's literally a 4m walk to a rake use the thing and replace it. It really is not hard, COVID is no longer an excuse! Likewise divots, replace them....if you don't then I hope you find your drives in every one of them on day 2 when you're leading the first day of the club championship. Yes a rant, but in no way at the club or anyone who has the decency to tidy up after themselves.... It is for all those who think as it's a cheaper course they're entitled to hack it up and leave it to the staff to fix. Grow up and fix it yourself you lazy gits!

Excellent course you won't find a better golf course in this area for £26 unbelievable standard of greens and tees were top notch I've played many courses that charge 60 -100 that would be shamed against this course 100% RECOMMEND!

Played today, 13th April. Course was in fantastic condition with fast, true greens. Very technical course in places. Well worth a visit if you're in the area!!

Great golf course set in lovely woodland surrounds with plenty of challenging greens. The greens, fairways and bunkers are well tended & manicured. The staff and members are welcoming and friendly. The clubhouse offers good value food & drink with seating inside and out. Buggies and other equipment can be hired.

I hardly ever leave reviews, because I'm hard to please anyway. Stand up and take a bow all staff at Moors Valley Golf club.Friendly staff, great value for money,wonderfully kept course and excellent greens. It was a scorching day today and the pro shop lad came round with free ice cold water to top up your old bottles. Never had that on any other course and I've played such courses like the Belfry and Lytham St Anne's. Nice touch and, of course, we will be back. Keep up the brilliant work folks.

Tricky little golf course, plays 18, designed around a 9 hole. No par 5's but lots of par 4's (and long ones). T Boxes were difficult to get T pegs into the ground. Lovely and flat course. Such a pretty course to play. Very enjoyable. This was the first time in 20 years of my golfing experiences (and I have played many courses)...that I have ever seen steps into a bunker !! Luckily I didn't have to use them 🙃

Lovely 9 holes of golf. Easy to book via website we were advised pro shop would be shut that day and to check in at clubhouse. Warm welcome on arrival and purchased range tokens and rental trollies. Other players/members chatty and welcoming, and nice round. Uncle hadn’t played for about 10 years so nice course for him to get his swing back. Wasn’t rushed about on the course. nice course and very welcoming. Highly recommended for a peaceful round of golf at a fair price.

What a little gem of a golf course! We visited on a lovely day and I had a lesson with Charlie, who was an excellent teacher, and made me feel at ease. The course has a family atmosphere to it, not intimidating like other places. The little cafe has a beautiful setting and a nice selection of dishes. Shame you're an hour away from is, hopefully we can visit soon!

Mike Dodd and all the junior coaches are fantastic. So welcoming and friendly. My son really enjoys going. They have a workbook with targets to aim for. It helps with focus and strives them to always move forward. It's a beautiful 9-hole course tucked away in Sturminster Marshall. It's definitely worth a visit for a coffee in the club house and chat with Mike.

We have had our annual group members (for 80 members, though we could easily fill more places) afternoon cream tea at Crane Valley for the past 3 years. Every year they provide the same superb food and service. Nothing is to much trouble for the staff, the facilities are top notch with the 80 place function room with bar and lounge area with views over the scenic golf course down to the lake. Highly recommended.

Crane Valley Golf Club offers a great dining experience. The food was simply amazing, with a variety of delicious options that cater to all tastes. The service was equally impressive, with attentive and friendly staff ensuring that every need was met promptly. A special mention goes to Jon, whose professionalism and dedication significantly enhanced our visit. Highly recommended for both golf enthusiasts and those seeking a memorable meal in a beautiful setting.

A beautiful day spent with my son and friends watching the Dorset Amateur Championships. Tom in the semi-finals and the course was great. The greens looked beautiful.
Rating: 5 / 5
Lovely course, well prices, friendly staff and members. When taking all into account I am giving this 5 stars. The course itself is good quality with a proper length to the par 4 and 5 holes. Greens are immaculate and quick. It's not quite a championship course but given it's £13 for a twilight round if you prebook on the website it's great value. Even peak time rounds come in at under £30. The clubhouse is nice. Good selection of drinks and a nice area to sit a chill after a round. There is an outside patio nearly completed right by the 18th green which will be superb on a warm day/evening. Staff and members are very friendly and helpful. I will play here time and time again.

Teriffic round at Crane Valley GC. Played like a donkey, but that wasn't down to the course, which wasn't long, but was technical in places. Hit some good shots, but also some shockers, think I should have left the putter in the car too ! Enjoyable course, even in the drizzle !
