Positive experience: I'm not a golfer so this review is just clubhouse. We booked Sunday lunch, adult 2 course main/desert £15.95. Well worth it chicken, beef,pork + help yourself to veg. It was all very nice well worth the trip/money even though stuffing was bread crumbs ! As said not a golfer so can't comment on the course.

Fantastic experience: Went to Glyn Abbey golf club for a celebratory Sunday lunch having been told how good it was. We weren't at all disappointed. Carol the chef and her team produced an amazing carvery and stunning homemade deserts. The bar and serving staff were extrtemely polite and amenable, comfortable seating area while we waited to be called to our table, no long queues, very well organized. Will definitely go again (soon). Book well enough in advance due to its popularity. Well done to all

Fantastic experience: We stayed for a couple of nights in our motorhome. Mark and Ian (behind the bar) were very friendly and helpful. Sunday roast is huge...and proper meat that chef has cooked that morning. Having walked the course on my last evening, I decided to play a round the following morning. What a lovely course - especially once the sun had burnt away the heavy dew.
