7 reviews of Thamesview Golf Centre
From all the feedback I've read on this site, I felt that maybe things would have changed at Thamesmead (Riverside Golf Course) over the years; I was wrong, kids playing all over the fairways, a young girl ran up to me and asked if she could have the ball she was holding, I told her it wasn't mine, realising after that the guy who had just tee'd off from behind the dog left had just had his ball picked up off the fairway!
It's a comical course, I have to admit, if you're a serious by-the-book golfer don't even bother playing here, the etiquette is unbelievably poor, the course seems to have improved (fairways), some greens still need a lot of work, kids still fishing at the water hazards, kind off annoying, and I lost at least four balls to kids who picked them up for fun and ran off.
Didn't bother going to the bar...
I agree with all of the above cheep nasty smells and poor playing greens fairways and the tee's? if you can find them. Seems the money is going in the owner's pocket than being given back to the course for the up keep.
Seems some mouding has been done but the course now looks like a rubbish dump and 1 fairway is only maybe 5 meters wide from mound to mound. crazy
Many kids on the course and moterbikes also might get in the way as also fishermen around all lakes on the course.
Don't go in the bar as you might be sold some drugs as I was. I walked away and would never go back, worst £8 I have ever spent.
Its called Thamesview Golf Cennte now but its still a very bad so called golf club.
I had played the course before 2 years ago and the greens were very bad, but I had word that the greens since had got better I played in march and the greens very much better and I had a nice round of golf. but I only played did not go in the club house. But I played back there 2 weeks ago and what a change. The greens were bad again and the attitude of the pro's when I went to pay my green fee was as if I was back at school, ps try to keep away from the tall american pro or who ever he is.
1 thing if your sad enough to waste money. look out for the sign that greets you on entry. No drugs at this golf club or the police will be notified. Not welcome to Thamesview golf centre.
All in all a stay away golf club, better going for a round at shooters hill CC.
This course is quite simply the worst golf course in the world.
I'm not a golfing snob - I've played down the road at Barnehust, Cray Valley, Pedham Place which are all pay and play and offer a decent game.
You won't get that at Thamesmead.
First impressions were not good as the range closes at 6pm and the club bar is the first I have ever seen that warns of drugs not being tolerated on site.
The tees are littered with rubbish, the greens bare (and I mean soil!) mixed in with the odd patch of grass 6 inches long.
I played the first hole and thought 'maybe it will get better' then having taken my first shot on the second I noticed my approach was slightly hampered.
Yes, there on the 2nd green was a man lying prostrate with a four-pack (now consumed).
I took a deep-breath of sewage-filled air, picked my ball up, and walked away.
Riverside golf club is a flat and cheap course with driving range sandwiched between Cross-Ness and Thamesmead.
This single fact means that you are neighbours with South London's sewage farm. If you can cope with the smell, you'll be fine. If you do not like the smell of 1/2 of London's waste then go elsewhere!
mak
these course is under good value for money at 6 pounds in the evening,but many kids play on this course but the staff said that the kids are being kicked off the course.
i am new to the game of golf and i find the 5 pounds a game for evening tee off times, but be alert many kids play on this golf course.
