Bunker lining the back of the green, so be careful not to over-shoot

    The greens are running very true and a very friendly club. Great spin back from the moisture on the greens.

    Super course, in good condition. Greens good, a couple of fairways showing signs of drainage work. Challenging course.
    Pro shop a little disorganised. It\'s a slow round due to how busy it gets, but no need for the constant hassling from the course marshall when you\'re clearly keeping up with the group in front.

    Found the course in excellent condition, and no major hold ups with timing.
    Tee to green all excellent.
    Club house facilities perfect too.

    Played at Slaley Hall this weekend on the Sunday driver package - Sunday / Monday 2nd & 3rd September. Bed, breakfast and evening meal + 2 rounds on the better Hunting Course - £109 per person. We have previously played the Hunting one day and the Priestman the other, but we felt in previous years that the Hunting course is both a better layout and looked after better by the green staff. It cost us an extra £10 to play the Hunting twice over the normal £99 cost.

    Considering how much rain we have had, the course was in good condition although the greens were a bit bobbly compared to previous years and some of them had been microtined. Bunkers were a bit poor - several days of rain had probably hardened them, but it would have only have taken a good raking by the greenkeepers to sort them out. The Hunting course is fairly long and well tree lined in places and there are many holes that require a well placed tee shot rather than just long distance.

    The inclusive three course meal was excellent and there was enough choice for everyone. The service was excellent - endless supply of bread and table water - little things that make a difference. Breakfast was fantastic - all the usual cold foods and english breakfast choices + cooked to order specials such as Eggs Benedict, Kippers, Boiled Eggs, Smoked Haddock all included in the price.

    I have read of people complaining about bar prices at Slaley, but normal Stella was £4 a pint, which I don't think is too bad for a hotel of Slaley's standard.

    Overall, a great value weekend of golf and no complaints from any of our party of 10. Will return again.

    Excellent course all round, only reason i marked it as good was due to the horrendous weather water logging the course for many weeks running up to when we played our round, would love to return when weather improves and would recommend to any golfer with an 18 or less handicap. wonderful place to have a weekend golf trip.
