Had a great day playing against the seniors today, a lovely course, testing but inviting and the greens were in beautiful condition. But the best part was the great bunch of guys we played with. Thanks for the day guys, and hopefully will be back again.

Old style former farmers field type of course but with a few improvements over the years. 3 sets of 9 holes gives variety but gets very wet in winter

Rating: 5 / 5

What a fantastic course, even after all the rain this year the course was in great shape and the greens were excellent! Felt really welcome by every one we interacted with! We’ll definitely be back!

My Son treated me to a round at Stoneham for Father's day and I wasn't disappointed at all. It has to be one of the best courses I have ever played. Great variety of holes and some great birdie chances to be had on some of the shorter par 4's and 5's. The greens ran true and were in mint condition as was the rest of the course. The 18th was awesome with so much danger if you miss hit your ball and a brilliant final hole to end your round. Easily 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from us and hopefully be back again this year for another game.

Visited here at the weekend, wow! Stunning course which is relatively hidden! I've never played on greens so fast and running so true. The course is very well looked after making it a challenge for all handicaps and types of players. The staff and members are all friendly too making you feel welcome. Would love to play here again and will try the course again in the autumn hopefully. Thanks for having me.

I've been a member here since this spring having waited a for the conversation from a 9 hole. I've enjoyed the course in both summer and now the autumn. I'm loving it and look forward to the completion of the new sections. For me its got all sort of challenges and styles of course in one. The maturity of the old course has been cleverly incorporated into new and I can see it getting better and better. Some great views over Hampshire and the lakes on the course. Agree with the other reviews being impressed with continuing condition of the greens and course in the wet. Shotgun tomorrow morning and it's full! I'm not sure what a green keepers revenge is though.

A nice looking course and challenging at this time of year. Thankfully, all holes were open but quite confusing with what holes to go to next, doesn’t seem very practical at times, especially for first-timers. We didn’t enjoy the greens due to them actually being painted. The green paint had actually dyed my white head covers by the end of the round. Looking forward to seeing how the course plays in the summer.

What an experience. The course is laid out over a large estate around the cricket stadium. Lots of variation, no two holes alike with good course management needed to get a good score. We always walk the course, but we could justify a buggy here if we wanted. We visited in January after some bad weather and found only one winter tee, no temp greens, and firm fairways. It's a real treat for this time of year. Great round had and will be returning soon

A great round of golf. This parkland course was challenging (slope 127 off the yellows) beautifully kept and in super condition. The tee boxes were pristine, the greens very tricky and very fast. The fairways were wide and sand in the bunkers soft and fluffy. No streams or ponds or any water hazards - what's not to like?? Additionally staff in the Pro Shop and bar were friendly and welcoming. The bar food was substantial, well presented and very reasonable. We will return.

Rating: 5 / 5

Excellent course. Greens have always been good whenever I have played. A fair but really good test with a challenging finish over the last four holes.

Lovely little course nestled away in the country. Quiet and peaceful with gorgeous, fast playing greens with some wide fairways with challenging protected Par 3s. Highly recommend.

A lovely little course in a beautiful setting

Rating: 4 / 5

This is a great course for beginners, seniors, juniors or anyone with mobility issues that still want to be able to play the game. It’s also a good place to practice through the winter months when other courses become too muddy to play. I’m a single figure handicap and usually carry just 4 or 5 clubs and make the most of the course, leave the driver at home 3/4 iron is plenty here. Theres not much scope to improve or lengthen the course other than to put another few holes in another field. I’d love to see that, would be a good candidate for the 12 hole golf course, although unlikely.

Great day playing Hockley. Terrific welcome. Lovely food. Fantastic course.

Rating: 5 / 5

A great golf course. And a tough one too so not for the beginner. Hilly, chalky countryside means it's playable in winter/spring when many other course are not. Pro shop and bar/clubhouse are good standard. And you'll deserve a drink when you've finished a round!

Rating: 4 / 5

It's a downland course, close to the M3. There are a reasonable variety of holes. It's not overly tough, but some of the greens undulations can be a challenge. It's quiet a hilly course, so if you're carrying, be prepared. The clubhouse staff are welcoming friendly. The food is OK. If you're in the area it's worth a visit.

Great course, lovely views, friendly club house staff.

Rating: 5 / 5

This course is easily one of the best in Hampshire its playable all year round due to it having great drainage and being based on chalk. The greens are in prefect condition all year round, much needed development is happening and its making the course stunning to look at aswell as to play. The club is very welcoming and has a very mixed age group with great attention payed to younger players to get them into golf. I also got married at the club and every part of the day was so well organised and put together. Test valley really is a great club.

I recently ran a Mental Health and Small Business - One Day Conference at Test Valley Golf Club and can't truly express how impressed I was with everything from the venue, to the catering, to the level of service. From the moment I enquired, Maria and Molly made me feel welcome and wanted to ensure they could accommodate as much as was feasible to create an event just as I had envisioned. The preparation and support provided was second to none. On the day, the food was excellent, the room was perfectly arranged and no dietary requirements or additional requests were too much trouble. They were so attentive and I can not wait to book our next event with them.

I have played here over the years and recently twice. The staff are all polite, friendly and helpful. I rely on them to pass on my compliments to the kitchen crew for excellent meals, and the greens staff for a well maintained course. Not the cheapest but certainly best value for money on a society day out.

Rating: 4 / 5

Nice course and not outrageously expensive. Greens are pretty consistent although some of the fairways are a bit lumpy and can give some random bounces. That's my excuse anyway.

Rating: 5 / 5

Some great holes As with other courses where cattle roams, it is very wide open, the fairways are undefined and the greens a touch slow with the odd hoof mark. If that isn’t a deal breaker, this is a very enjoyable golf course. Clubhouse facilities more than adequate.

Rating: 5 / 5

fabulous course well worth a visit very friendly and beautiful location.. stunning greens very well presented and not very hilly perfect day for my birthday will be back for sure

Rating: 5 / 5

II absolutely loved it, excellent value for money. Played two rounds while I was on holiday. The scenery is stunning, with wild horses running everywhere, beautiful. The staff were very friendly, and other than a few hoof prints on the greens, the courses are in good condition :-)

Rating: 5 / 5

Great little course and you rarely play from a flat lie which will improve your game. Several par fours that are reachable in one for the bigger hitters but enough tricky holes to keep it interesting. No lush fairways as it’s a Forest course, but ‘pick and place’ all year round. I’d give the course a 7/10, but the clubhouse and the members a good 9/10. The affordability of a round and the wildlife make it well worth a visit.
