Love this course. Superb condition, hazards well placed, challenging greens with good speed, very well priced. A short course that allows you to score (I mentally add 10 to my score to compare it to a “full” course, i.e 5800-6200 yards) but probably one of the best in the south Essex area. I would always choose Cranham for my rounds, with Epping and Toot Hill as other contenders. Wanstead is overpriced, Hainault is too busy and in too bad condition, Theydon Bois rarely in good condition, Woolston Manor great fun but busy. 18th signature hole is a highlight, even if they do dye the water! If there was a negative, it would be the open and tight nature of the holes means you’re often at risk from wayward shots (yours or theirs!). Overall 5/5 - hidden gem that may be too short for the longer hitters but provides great fun for the typical weekend hacker.

Not the most challenging course out there, but exceptionally well maintained and great drainage - an excellent winter course and great for high handicappers looking for some practice.

Fantastic course, very well kept, greens were fast and true. Its quite open and not very long so will favour the beginners and high handicappers. Its well worth the green fee, i will return and i recommend you visit for a pleasant round.

I played at Cranham Golf Course for the first time this week and I was very impressed. This is a beautifully designed course offering plenty of challenges in the way of water hazards, fairway and greenside bunkers, dog legs and two-tiered greens. You cannot fault the course conditions. The tee boxes are in great condition. The fairways were well cut and the rough is fairly light, with barely any deep rough. The greens are fast and beautifully kept. On the final hole you are met with a challenging but beautiful par 3 with an island green. The course offers 7 par 3s, 9 par 4s, and 2 par 5s. The course would be good for high handicappers, but also enjoyable for all levels. I will definitely be back for more golf at Cranham ⛳

Best kept communal course I know of. Very good for beginners but with enough challenge for low handicappers, and very cheap in comparison. The 18th island hole is a great way to finish it off.
