Great winter course

Mid-winter blues, weeks of rain, most courses struggling with mandatory winter matt’s & waterlogged greens, on temporaries. We were really pleased to play Kilton Forrest. It’s built on a sand base so drains really well, so we enjoyed playing preferred lie on fairways, no matt’s, full greens and tee boxes. It was in a really good condition.

It is a nice municipal course. some nice holes.

Well looked after golf course and in great condition for time of year. Does not appear to suffer too much from all the rain we’ve had and was very comfortable under foot. Great value course, we’ll back again.

Good Condition Considering All The Rain In Recent Months

All holes on temporary tees and four temporary greens but generally much drier than most courses in the area (no mud on bottom of trousers after round!!). Enjoyable change to our regular course.

Great for winter - friendly staff

Saw a weekend deal that was to good to miss- plus our home course only has 13 holes available,
Special mention to Rob in the pro-shop, extremely helpful and friendly.

The course is challenging with many different approaches, Only 1 magnet- I mean water hazard and we managed to keep the same balls throughout the game- none were donated to the course.

Again the course was firm and consequently provided some carry- hence closer to the green lol.
There was only 1 temp in use so for this time of year that was very good.and the greens were great for this time of year- still having some pace to them helped immensely, even when it started raining.

There were plenty of players on and therefore the pace was only reasonable- many times having to wait until taking a shot every hole and Par 3 2 in the queue.

We have rebooked for the following Sunday for a 3 ball., see how that one goes.

Great course

Absolutely amazing course, wide open fairways, very forgiving for the less good golfers. Greens a little slow due to weather but can't blame course for that.

Value for money

With our home course closed due to recent heavy rain we looked for a course open to get a round of golf.
A very warm & friendly welcome in the Pro Shop. A cup of coffee in the clubhouse then onto the course.
Surprisingly, after recent heavy rain, the course was dry & played well. The course is quite forgiving with wide fairways.
We got around the course easily with no hold ups or slow play.
The only downside was when we went in the clubhouse after golf the coffee machine had been turned off & there was no fresh milk to make an instant coffee. A small hiccup which did not spoil our enjoyable experience,
We found Kilton Forest good value for money

Terrible

No starter ensuring space between groups. Pace of play was terrible. Waiting 10 mins on every hole. Shambolic. Left after 13 holes which had taken nearly 4 hours.

Great winter course, long holes makes a good challenge

Kilton is not seen as one of the higher level courses in our area, but then winter comes and all of a sudden those people who did not give it a moment then realise its one of the best courses in the area during bad weather. The fairways are quite long grass but more lush than unkempt, the greens are fine and in some places you will find the odd bobble but its a 15 or 20 quid course with limited staff, what can you honestly expect? The course has some solid par 4s and par 5s which are not easy to reach even for long hitters in the winter weather. The course is quite open and hole 11 can be affected by flooding but only meaning a shorter green. The staff are really helpful and friendly, the food is excellent. I would be surprised if you can find a better value course which is fully open in the area. The best winter course by a mile is College Pines GC but thats 32 quid and packed out in winter. Do not dismiss Kilton if you live locally, it will surprise you and if you want a round in the bad weather this course is solid.
