Market Rasen and District Golf Club

played here yesterday in there open,1/8/2010, my 1st time at the course, and this place is a beauty, i would class it as a heathland,if you dont hit the ball straight ish forget about it as you will be in alot of trouble, not overly long in parts like 2nd 3rd 4th, but you do need to be straight, 1 hole can wreck your card as i found out, some really pretty holes like 1st, 7th ,10th great hole 13th,14,15, make your score on the short par 4s as you will need a few in the bank for later on, all the par 3 are pretty tough, i couldnt fault the place,if i lived closer would be joining, its somewer along the lines of a moortown/formby hall type of course, members very friendly ,greens were good aswell ,defo play if in area im certainly going back

I would consider myself as a 'high handicapper', and as such the thought of narrow, pine tree lined fairways would normally daunt me. However the driver came out and did me proud and made for a very enjoyable round.
The greens were in superb condition as were the undulations of the fairways. A very well established and beautiful golf course, which was almost silent as we strolled around.
A fantastic course with a large clubhouse and excellent facilities & hospitality, a value-for-money for course and I would recommend it to any ability of golfer.

Market Rasen is an interesting parkland course of close to championship standard. The greens and fairways are maintained at a high standard. The terrain is rolling rather than undulating, with most holes flanked by pine trees. The course is not too long (6045 yds) but the fairways are cut quite narrow.
The clubhouse is fairly modern and provides excellent viewing of the difficult Par 3 18th.
