I have been having lessons with Tony Hand at the Golf Swing Co. for several weeks now and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I’ve learnt a lot about the mechanics of the various swings required for driving, primarily, irons and my chipping game. Tony is a very amiable fella, who explains everything in layman’s terms, so you can eventually self analyse your own shots. Tony’s studio is well equipped and the golf swing analysis is great to see what you’re doing wrong and then the improved swing. He’s got his work cut out when we do bunker shots!

So far I have had 5 lessons with Tony and I’m so happy with his tuition that I’ve booked another 10. He has shown me where I was going wrong and given me drills and pointers to improve. He is patient and thoughtful and is happy to cover any aspect of your golf that needs help. I would highly recommend him.

Being both complete beginners to golf, myself and my Grandson were looking for someone who would coach us together, and having contacted Tony he said he would be delighted to take on the task. In the first 90 minute pre-assessment lesson within the All Weather Indoor Facility, we had an initial video analysis of our golf swing, where Tony was able to identify our foot position, weight distribution, swing, head position and follow through. By being able to break each of these elements down, Tony was able to show and explain how these could be improved. We then had a further video analysis, and by taking Tony's comments onboard definitely improved our swing and hitting of the ball. We have since had further lessons on the outside pitching and putting greens, which have added to the overall learning experience. Tony's teaching technique have made the lessons fun and enjoyable, as well as providing us with his vast experience and knowledge of the game. Although still a lot to learn, I would definitely recommend Tony to anyone thinking of taking lessons or for those wanting to improve their game.

Tony is fantastic! His patience and expertise have massively improved my game. Clear instructions and drills which have been effective in improving my game and giving my the knowledge to work on my swing whilst on the course.
Rating: 5 / 5
I’m beginner at golf and Tony welcomed me into the game with a great pace and understanding with it. Golf is tough but with my time with Tony I made massive improvements to my game. For a figures standpoint I took 3 strokes off of my handicap 36 to 33, still a long way to go I know but I have no doubt Tony was a big part to play in that. Cheers

Breathtaking course in incredible condition. We played in September 2024 and was certainly the highlights of our golfing year. An absolute gem of a golf course nestled in the middle of Poole. Can't wait to return.

What a fantastic place to play golf, the course was in immaculate condition and played very well. Greens were fast and consistent. The course provided a good challenge but there’s plenty of options to score well if you are on top of your game!

Played a lot of Courses, but Parkstone is different class! Great condition...with each hole being something different. Loved it!
Rating: 5 / 5
Amazing course, in fantastic condition. Lucky enough to be invited as a guest to Parkstone. What a day. The course is a good length, a mix of parkland and heathland with a woodland section as well. Very varied, which makes it even more fun. Greens were fast and also true. Fairways in great condition. Tee boxes are good and flat, I've putted on worse condition green's. I would recommend you take the opportunity to play here if it presents itself.

Played Parkstone yesterday after some of the worst rain I've seen, i couldn't believe the condition the course was in, it was immaculate! The course layout is by far the best I've played with each hole offering something different and lot to think about. The views from the golf course are just simply stunning! The marshal Nick had fantastic knowledge of the course which really helped when navigating the course. All staff are very welcoming and nothing is to much bother. Cant wait to come back and would highly recommend this course to anyone!

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.

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.

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.

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 !

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

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.

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.

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.

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!

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 🙃

We arrived just in time (sat nav having taken us to the wrong course!). Everyone we met was very welcoming and the course was in fantastic condition given the heavy rains in April. The starter and Marshall who made sure play was at a reasonable pace were very helpful and friendly. Greens were fast and true. The cost of the round reflected the quality of the course. Thank you

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🍹

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 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. ⛳😁🏌️♀️

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.

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.

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.

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!

Played Stroller & Needles. Both incredible views and challenging holes. Stroller better of the two and harder. Lots of bunkers and some difficult hole layouts on both. Greens were a1. Clubhouse really cool. Just a fun place to play and challenging. Lots of par 5s and long challenging ones. The bunkers need the sand loosening though because they were almost all playing really shallow and hard and it was hard to take sand. Most of the sand underneath top thin layer was compacted, not loose. Apart from that it was awesome. This place is amazing and such a cool quirky club. Will definetly be returning at some point with other family/friends. Thanks a lot

Lovely course, a typical wintery day with murky clouds and it was pretty windy in some exposed places. I really enjoyed the variety of elevated tees, blind tee shots, water hazards and the views are stunning. I look forward to visiting again in the Summer months !!!

Best welcome to date…beautiful link course, with the Isle of Wight views. A big shout of to Christie in the pro shop who went up and beyond to help my partner and I find a good place for NYE. Also Graham Pole for his generosity in buying us a pint after our first game here, as the bar was closing with only cash payments. We will defiantly be back to play the final 9 soon. Sam & James 😃

Fun course...good shape...a bit confusing as 3 9's so always around people and other holes. Would come back. Played it in a 3 club wind which always takes away a little something. Great views.
