Absolutely loved it. So beautiful in the spring and so challenging. Gorgeous floating houses in the water features! Gary in the pro shop was amazing too. So welcoming. Will definitely return when I’m in the area. A little hidden gem!

Although this is a member's only golf club, they do accept the occasional visit from sensible, well behaved members of the general public. The food they serve is top quality and their service is friendly and welcoming. They have a small range of beers, but enough that anyone should find something they like. They have a good range of wines and their prices are reasonable. A tidy, clean and comfortable place to visit which was nicely quiet and peaceful when I popped in for lunch.

We held Mum's life celebration at the club and it was just perfect. Plenty of space for people to mingle and share memories. It was a sunny day and some of us sat outside overlooking the course. It was tranquil and beautiful. The staff were lovely and we couldn't have asked for more.

Lovely 9 hole course where you need every club in the bag. Greens in great condition. Friendly membership and staff too.

Overview— Beautiful and welcoming course that now boasts a vibrant cohort of young members - there is a great connection of respect between the older and younger people at the club. Course & Improvements— There have been significant improvements to the club house and course in the last few years — and there are more to come! The course drains really well during the winter months so you can play almost all year round without fear of a mud bath. Mark and the greens keepers are top notch at maintaining and fixing issues. Both tricky and rewarding — you’ve got to play well to shoot a good score round at HGC! It’s only a 9 hole but every hole is unique with its own challenges, there’s no filler holes. Culture— I found the environment to be very friendly — golf can be daunting to get into, the atmosphere here helped me feel comfortable to play a lot (just by booking on with random members) and get down from ~30 to ~13 HCP. There is a good mix of low, mid and high handicappers and they all play along side each other. This club was my first experience of golf (been here 2 years now) and after visiting other clubs I’m so thankful to have landed here. Hampstead Golf Club has a great opportunity to become a hidden gem of North London. It focuses on the importance aspects of tradition without making enemies of the future and the positive cultural change the game is going through. It marries the wonderful history of the game with a youthful outlook.

I have been and still am a member of many clubs however I have never come across such a welcoming group of golfers and staff. They make you feel at home to the, that you could almost turn up in your slippers, from the minute you get there. The course is challenging and kept in amazing condition and to be able to play nine holes in about 90 minutes virtually in the centre of London is a fantastic privilege. They have spent a lot of money on the course and facilities and to employ a drink on the terrace with views over London is magical. Well done Mark, Wendy and the team.

We recently held my father's Wake at Wanstead Golf Club. Bernie and Ann are so kind and really helped me with its organisation and took the stress out if it for me. People commented that the food was lovely and I am very grateful to Ann for running the catering so seamlessly. Thank you to everyone for helping Dad's Wake run so smoothly.

I have been here a few times to play, and the course is enjoyable to play with very good greens and fairways. I found it really easy to get to and the central line train is a short walk away for people like me who do not have a vehicle. I can also highly recommend the food in the clubhouse, I loved the chicken wrap I got for lunch!

Friendly staff, course in decent condition considering the rain we’ve had. Full English breakfast was the best I’ve ever had. Staff very friendly.

Review of Sunday Lunch at Wanstead Golf Club I recently had the pleasure of enjoying a Sunday lunch at Wanstead Golf Club. The roast dinner featured a generous portion of meat, which was beautifully presented. While the accompanying vegetables offered a fresh touch. It was evident that they use quality ingredients. For dessert, I chose the apple crumble. It had a lovely appearance; the flavours were rich and satisfying. I appreciated the effort in presentation, and it was a nice way to end the meal. The service was friendly and accommodating. The staff made an effort to ensure we were comfortable and attended to, which added a welcoming atmosphere to our visit. Overall, my Sunday lunch at Wanstead Golf Club was a pleasant experience.

A golf course with a royal status. Wasn't the longest or the most challenging course that I played so far, but it very well maintained. Has a classic club house that server fantastic food. Probably give higher recommend to the restaurant than the course.😅 It's a been there done that course, as it's not easily accessible. (Private course)

It's nice to treat yourself to the elegant and stately surroundings for Sunday Lunch. I did feel, however, that it wasn't as good the first time round. The actual roast beef lunch seemed if was of the pre prepared variety that most pub restaurants do. The beef was passable but may have been not freshly carved. The accompanying vegetables were nothing of note. I hope I'm wrong as it's a good venue to eat, albeit a tad on the pricey side, but that's to be expected.

Very interesting and challenging course. A stone’s throw from Eltham Palace. Pro shop manager was very friendly and accommodating. Clubhouse was beautiful, and had a fascinating history. I even got a private tour by the facilities director, which included an incredible golf memorabilia museum! I ate in the bar area and enjoyed delicious food and friendly service. Pick up the book on the history of the club, one of the oldest in England.

Attended for a Wake of a close relative. A lovely venue. However the entrance is a bit confusing as it's gated, it took a while to realise there's a line on the ground in front of the gates, and car needed to be near that to allow gates to open. Lovely views from the reception area across the 18th hole and out towards Sidcup/Welling. Nice clean facilities, friendly staff.

Nice course in really good condition. Shame the pro didn't tell us about the past Capts comp & from the 13th tee would be closed. Luckily there were some friendly members who helped

Wow, what a lovely course and a great test of golf. On 1st August the whole course was in beautiful condition; tees, fairways and greens. Every hole offers a different challenge. Greens were the best I’ve played this year. As a 13 handicap I’d play it again tomorrow having felt I didn’t do it justice first time around. Visitor green fees with a member are very reasonable.

I love this place. Easy access, a turn off the A12 dual carriageway. Free parking, snacks available on site. You can book online in minutes and enjoy playing golf. Around 20 holes on the course. Lots of different types of tests to get your competitive juices flowing. Great fun for kids and adults. You will have a great time here. Lovely setting. Salim Patel

Great decorative fun mini golf. Could do with modifying a few of the more simple holes to make it a bit more challenging but overall decent course. Bathrooms were very dirty.

Rating: 5 / 5

Had a really nice time with the family, took just over an hour to complete the course, it provided some light-hearted competition, lots of laughs and a couple of arguments too! Everything you expect from a family outing. My 8 year old said it was like going abroad on holiday with all the palm trees 🌴 luckily for us it was a sunny afternoon 😎 only downside was it is a bit expensive at £40 for 2 adults and 2 children 😀

Went for a happy hour and had a fun time. The customer service was great and very helpful. They directed us where to go and the drinks were cold. Mini golf was fun and entertaining. Only played nine holes but they at least had two course of nine holes, if not three.

The courses were thoughtfully designed and interactive. There were plenty of great spots for taking pictures. We completed two courses and were lucky to have arrived during a quiet period, allowing us to take our time and fully enjoy the experience. The venue also features a cloakroom, arcade games, and several bars. It’s a fantastic option for a date night or a casual hangout with friends!

Booked for my husband's birthday. Lauren got us checked in and explained everything very well. Drinks are fantastic and the Gary course was so fun! The slide in the beginning made it worth it! I'd definitely come here again for a birthday or celebration of some sort :)

Great public course and good value for money. Not a very long course, but challenging enough to make you think of shot choice. Greens were in good condition in October and considering the dry summer we just had.

I had a lovely morning playing The Prince’s course this morning at Richmond Park Golf Course. The staff was very friendly and I was able to hire some clubs. The clubs were a bit old and beat up but I guess that’s to be expected with a public course. They still played fine. The course itself is beautiful with lots of birds and foxes on the course. I landed my ball on the green with a nice pitch shot and this fox darted out of the bushes and tried to steal my ball haha. It was quite comical and a unique experience. Keep an eye out for those sly foxes. Also, bring extra balls because you will lose a bunch unless you have great aim. The rough is extremely thick and dense. While I lost lots a few balls I also found a few so it evened out. Overall a fun course close to London. I’d definitely go back.

Had a lovely scramble with a good friend on this 18 hole course after hitting the driving range. I’m a complete beginner so I was happy to hit a few straight shots! Driving range is decent and has targets etc Cafe is reasonably priced and lots of seating area Recommend sun cream for hot days! The refill station at hole 9 was welcome, and the price of stuff in vending machines is cheap for chocolates etc

Excited about playing a course that I’ve not played in 15 years. The course layout is good, very flat and straight, however bunkers are very well placed and the fairways are mostly undulating so shot selection is key. Course is okish, could be better, however greens are true can be attacked very well. The rough needs work as when a ball lands in it it’s very tough to find them. Staff are very friendly and there is a good beer selection!

Exceptional Golfing Experience at Peninsula Greenwich "We recently had the pleasure of playing golf at Peninsula Green, and it was truly one of the best experiences! The course was immaculate, with breathtaking views of the bay. Although dining options were limited, the cheesy fries were a highlight. The bay's serene atmosphere made our visit truly enjoyable. Highly recommend Peninsula Green for golf enthusiasts!

Great way to spend your weekend with a group of friends. I visited with a group of my friends and I couldn’t realise how the time passed by. We enjoyed a lot competing with eachother. They have live screen to watch all the live metrics, you can definitely make use of it if you are a golf beginner just like me. They also serve food and drinks inside. Although veg options are very limited, they had a good taste. I would highly recommend this place.
