Barlborough Links Golf Club

Tees are poor, bunkers are overgrown, but fairways and greens are fine. I hate the 9th hole!!! One of these days I'll actually get over the water in less than 5. Excelent value for money, especially if you are over 65 like me.

It is what it is. Less than a tenner and you can get most clubs out of the bag. You can do that on Bondhays 9 holer. The tees are poor but the course layout is quite good. The 9th hole is a belter. Needs more TLC

i dont think its that bad a course. Admitadly its not world class and far from it but its not too bad

Terrible.Played this weekend and we came of the second time round. The course was patchy and under construction. I wouldn't recommend this course to anyone, there are better courses in the area I.E mansfield woodhouse or even bondhays nine hole.

After playing Barlborouh today, I have to say that I found the course to be in awful condition, just awful. This however was just one fly in an ointment with many flies in. The greens were tatty and terribly bumpy, the sand couldn't even be described as sand (more like rubbly Earth), the fairways were bare in places and the tee areas were all mudbaths. Shocking.
I found the clientele to be rude and obnoxious. The fourball in front of us (that made our twoball wait all the way around) spent all day effing and jeffing and full volume. Peasants.
We recieved an unfriendly welcome which is generous and the oaf had the nerve to charge us 14 pounds each for 18 holes. what a rip off. I don't mind paying if the course is worth it. This however was worth about 5 pounds for 18.
All in all a terrible day. STAY AWAY!?!

Barlborough is what it is. For £7 you get a round of 9 holes of golf.
The greens are actually OK, just a little wooly and the layout is quite good. The highlight really is the finishing hole which makes it’s way round the lake that is central to the course.
Some of the tees however were very poor possibly some of the worst I’ve played on and in the changing rooms there was a 32” TV and an old oven. I’m not sure what all that was about.
Overall for £7 it’s a 9 hole knock what more can you say.

i play on this course all the time and its not that bad.for 5 pounds for nine holes you cant really go wrong.the fairways are in good condition but the greens arent up to much.they are slow and there are holes in some of them.there could be more bunkers around the greens.

What a shame !! I started playing at Barlborough a couple of years ago when I first took up the game. It was nine holer which was a great introduction to the game, with some good holes.
I returned recently and found that the condition of the course has degenerated considerably, which is a big disapointment. The greens were very poor and patchy and the fairways not in good condition.
I have every sympathy with the members of Barlborough, because with a little investment, this would be a smashing nine hole course
