A Gem

I booked this course looking for a good course that was very playable and not to far from were we where staying. My wife and I really enjoyed the course. The staff couldn't have been anymore friendly, first off I called to see if I could move our tee time. Woman was very helpful and was able to sort it out. Had a really enjoyable round. My only very small negative point a couple.of the greens had.some small burn like patches. Not very many and they all rolled well. As I said only reason I didn't give every description all 5.stars. very good value for the price. Some nice holes that made you work. We ended up eating at the clubhouse which we hadn't intended. Thankfully though we chatted to the chef who was so helpful as my wife has cealic disease and had struggled to find good food in the area. The lady was excellent served up great food and we left very contented. Really is a gem of a course made even better by the people there

Borders gem

Second time playing Thornhill and it’s a great course lots of different shots required. Many improvements since we last played lots of the scrub and trees cleared out which gave you an impression of more light around the course. Greens and fairway’s were spot on, with sloping greens it makes for a fun day putting. Love this course would recommend to anyone.

Not a viable winter course

Played in the summer and have to admit was a rather good and varied course, played today and they have set up “winter greens” though they share no likeliness to greens of any sort that I have seen, I have seen courses with cleaner roughs than some of these “greens” and many with fairways in better condition than them also. Some greens were placed on existing fairways and some were just a hole dug in the rough with a flag inserted, would not recommend as a winter course.

Thoroughly enjoyed Thornhill. No staff were working so we spoke to a member and began the round. The course is in a beautiful setting would certainly play again.

Perfect day

Good course which is moderately challenging for the medium handicapper. Some tricky holes and blind shots make it interesting too. Very friendly.
Good parkland course which plays sometimes like a links course without the wind. Had a great day.

Good Friday

Myself and 3 friends played the course on Good Friday. The course was clearly going through some development works and some temporary greens were in play. Some of the pin positions on the full greens were pretty silly and laughable at times. Saying this, we all enjoyed our round and the course was in good condition for the time of year. Groupings were well spaced and we never encountered anyone in front or behind. At £20 for the round we feel we got good value for money and would love to play again once there is some growth on the course and full greens were all on play. It would have been move to know temporary greens were in play before we started.

Nice course

Course played well. Was little disappointed with the amount of winter greens in play (7) after calling before I booked to be told there were only 2 in play. Course is undergoing a lot of work, once completed the course will be excellent. For £18.50 it was well worth the 1 hour travel to play it. Would definitely play it again maybe head back through in the summer. Also meet the friendly alligator 15th

Enjoyable course

Considering the rain that has fallen over the last few days, the course played excellent. Really enjoyed the round and found a few holes quite challenging. I would love to play this course again.
