“The Oaks near Banstead is a real gem! The course offers a fantastic challenge for golfers of all abilities. The par 5s, especially the fifth, are reachable in two for the longer hitters while still providing a strategic test. The par 3s are beautifully designed and offer a mix of risk and reward. I played with a couple of golfers with varying handicaps, and we all thoroughly enjoyed the course. The layout is superb, with clever use of elevation changes and visually appealing tee shots. The fairways were in excellent condition, considering the hot weather, and the greens were lightning fast! These greens made for a true test of golf, demanding precision with both approach shots and putting. Pin placements were incredibly challenging, with some positions just a few feet from the edge, adding an extra layer of difficulty. Pace of play was good, allowing us to enjoy the round without rushing. The course is surrounded by mature trees, creating a tranquil atmosphere. The signature hole for me was the 12th, a challenging par 4 with a dogleg right and a water hazard guarding the green. Towards the end of the round, you're rewarded with lovely views of central London from the higher points. The slope rating doesn't fully capture the challenge this course offers. For just £25, the value is incredible. It's a challenging but enjoyable course that I'll definitely be returning to.”
