Fantastic experience: I have been having regular lessons with Nick Garland at Woolfox for the last 18 months or so and can easily say he is the best pro I have ever worked with on my game. Nick is incredibly easy going and approachable making lessons enjoyable and a good laugh. Would highly recommend him if you are looking for a pro who is friendly, approachable and makes what can seem a very difficult game a simple one!
Hi Thomas, thank you for leaving your review! Nick is a great asset to our team and we're so pleased you've enjoyed your lessons with him. See you at Woolfox again soon!

Dear Casper. Thank you so much for taking your time to leave us a review. We’re so pleased you had a lovely evening with us and enjoyed Sillyboi too! Hopefully see you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Me and my family went to the summer launch party last week at woolfox. And whilst the weather was typical British weather (raining), the whole event had been planned meticulously to prepare for this. There were blankets, umbrellas and plenty of undercover seating. They had a DJ playing all evening with just added to the good vibes! We all loved the pizza van and the cocktail bar, super impressed with the entire event! Can't wait to come back soon!
Dear Abbie, thank you so much for taking your time to leave us a lovely review. We are so pleased to hear you had a great time with us at the 'Summer Launch' despite the rain..! See you again soon for more pizza and cocktails!
Fantastic experience: What a fabulous spot! The summer party on Friday was on point - even though the weather wasn’t so much. Loved the atmosphere, the pizza was gorgeous. Can’t wait to spend some more evenings here.
Dear Andy, thank you so much for your lovely feedback, looking forward to seeing you again soon!
Fantastic experience: Dinner time
Hope you had a lovely dinner Richard, see you again soon...
Negative experience: i was a member at rutland county about a decade ago, its inland links design was a wonderful place to play for all levels of golfer, the needle rough offered up a real challenge, and the fairways/ greens were impeccable. fast forward ten years and i decide to meet an old mate there for a round for old times sake. What i experienced was really quite terrible, its obvious investors have come along and asked for impact and photo scenes for the website, so a few lakes have been brought in with showy fountains, but sadly this was done at the cost of the courses intended rhythm and style. Two signature holes have been wrecked, and the rough is all but eradicated. The greens were a shadow of their former brilliance, there’s no yard markers, or signage to the next tee, and they’re hard to find ! The magic rutland county once possessed has been brutally ripped from the course and what’s left behind is a soulless investment drive, with no sympathy for what went before. There is no clubhouse, only a little cafe in the range that only had bottles or cans on our visit, and they have a zero cash policy . i fell in love with this course many moons ago and i come away deeply saddened by what’s happened to it . great photo for the brochure though !
Dear Leon, I'm really sorry to hear that you were so disappointed with your recent visit to Woolfox. Its such a shame you missed out on visiting our beautiful restaurant too. Our best wishes, Woolfox.
Positive experience: Lovely place, lovely staff.
Thank you for leaving a lovely review Joan, hopefully see you again soon!
Negative experience: !!AVOID AT ALL COST!! Don’t waist your time and your money on this overpriced terrible course. The course should not of been open it was unplayable. It was a sunny warm day and the course was a swampy flooded mess. The sixth green was in awful state there was a random second half cut hole on the green along with massive gouges out of the green. It continues to go downhill with tee boxes on a slope that are horrendously muddy that are in a completely random places. Overall they have completely given up on the course and only care about the holes that are visible from the main complex. There are so many better courses around that are in far better condition actually worth spending £30+ a round.
Dear Ben. I hope you are well and having a great day. Our green fees are of a comparable rate, and after a very wet few weeks we are doing our best to maintain the course during these conditions. The course is inspected on a daily basis. Part of our course is built on clay, we can see that this is where your photos were taken -on the very wet areas of the course. The drier areas are built on limestone and dry out much quicker. The course is in good condition or of what we would expect from a busy weekend after lots of rain. We are sorry to hear you didn’t have a good game and hope to see you again soon in the drier weather.
Fantastic experience: Unexpected treasure just off the A1(M). Excellent fresh and healthy food choices and fantastic coffee.
Hello Helen, Thank you for visiting us and leaving a lovely review. So pleased you enjoyed your meal and coffee. Hopefully see you again soon
Fantastic experience: Beautiful food, great service and lovely atmosphere. The green juice and pulled pork waffle is a must! Definitely be back again.
Hi Gemma, thank you so much for taking your time to leave us a lovely review. So please you enjoyed your visit. Hopefully see you again soon.
Positive experience: Golf course was good considering the weather we have had. The "bacon roll" left alot to be desired. First time trying pork jerky!!!! On dry powdered roll!!
Hi Frank, thank you for visiting Woolfox this weekend, I hope you had a good round of golf. We are sorry to hear about your dining experience. Your feedback has been noted and passed on to the kitchen. Hope to see you again soon.
Positive experience: Over £21 for two sausage sandwiches and two coffees we won't be eating there again
Positive experience: The gym is nice but there are other local gyms with a better range of equipment. The equipment is the best you can get so a shame they don't have the selection of others. The pool is beautiful but the changing rooms are so hot I've only had one shower because of sweating once out. The issue is that the Fika cafe is open to non members so once you've been to the gym especially at weekends you struggle to find a table that isn't reserved or doesn't have a non member sat at. For £3000 for a couple a year it's an extortionate price for a small gym that you can't then relax with a drink afterwards. It's full of yummy mummies having lunches or brunches or people working. So we won't renew and will be going to Ketton next year which is bigger with more selection and a lot cheaper.
Dear Katy, I hope you are really well. Thank you for your feedback, it is extremely important to us. I’m sorry to hear you don’t feel Woolfox has enough on offer for you. We have lots of new exciting offerings planned for next year, including a Members Lounge to make sure our Members can find a space and enjoy a Fika coffee in our special surroundings. Enjoy your evening, take care.
Positive experience: Only there for the golf. Course was a bit scruffy and staff were a bit unwelcoming.
Good morning Earl, I hope you had a good weekend. Do you mind getting in touch with me regarding your feedback? Thank you [email protected]
Fantastic experience: A beautifully curated cafe. Great interior design, an eclectic menu for food adventurers and great outdoor space with lovely views. Excellent parking too. The food was exceptional!
Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased you had a great visit!
Fantastic experience: Just delivery for work what a lovely restaurant and of course the golf course brilliant place hope to go back
Thank you for your review. Fika and our golf course are open to the public so feel free to visit, we are open 7 days a week!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic course. Well maintained. Will definitely return.
Thank you for your review, we're glad you had a great visit! See you again soon!
Fantastic experience: Great course, friendly staff and a very reasonable price. Will deffo be back. Course was in superb condition and a good mix of pars
Thank you so much for your review and brilliant photos! Looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Positive experience: Good value course. Still quite young and needs time to mature. Definitely worth a visit.
Thank you for leaving us a review! Glad you enjoyed your visit. Hope you see you again soon!
Fantastic experience: Love it here
Thank you Elaine! See you again soon!
Fantastic experience: Really enjoy playing here. The course is a good layout and the greens slow but getting better. The members and staff are all very friendly. The food and coffee are great.
Thank you for your lovely reply Rob, hope to see you up here again soon!
Fantastic experience: Lovely place. Really enjoyable golf course. Staff are great
Positive experience: Nice course
Fantastic experience: Excellent clean cafe with upmarket brunches and decent coffee. Super staff team.
Fantastic experience: Great day
Positive experience: Only visited the range which was well equipped with card reader for ball dispensing and range markers and a few flags out on the range. However I personally think there could be some more added to aim for on the range to add a bit of variety. Also the cafe is a big plus for a drink/snack before heading out on a round or just while you're at the range.
Fantastic experience: It’s lovely to have such an amazing facility available on our door step. Fantastic location, friendly staff and a beautiful place to chill out after work Thankyou Woolfox
Positive experience: Course in good condition, not available on watch or app, didn't see many distance markers. Club house tiny, not big enough for big groups, but very welcoming Second visit, still no distance markers or course mapping, club dose not seem to care about what customers think
Hi there, thank you for your feedback. We can confirm that Garmin and Arccos have now updated their GPS maps on the new course layout. Hope you see you again soon.
Positive experience: Greens were very slow and patchy. Great food at the restaurant....
Fantastic experience: Interesting and calenging golf course
Fantastic experience: We were there for the golf, fantastic course with helpful staff at the range.
Negative experience: Enjoy the course every time I come. Shame about the rude, sarcastic and unwelcoming woman who runs the driving range/cafe.
Hi Reese, This is Holly from Woolfox, I'm sorry to hear this. Would you mind getting in touch via email so that I can speak to you about your recent visit? [email protected]
Positive experience: Decent layout, fairways were quite good, greens had many patches and need work. GPS doesn't work on many holes so needs an update, made worse by not having any yardage markers on the fairways.
Fantastic experience: I have just joined the Woolfox and everyone has been so welcoming, friendly and helpful. All the facilities are amazing, you can come for a brilliant workout or just to purely relax. I have recommended this place to all my friends and family.
Fantastic experience: One of the best courses to play in winter. After playing the majority of the local courses to me we found Woolfox to be the most playable and in the best condition. As this is a course you can play all year round our four ball has decided to all become members. Woolfox now has a spa to add the impressive facilities. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Decent value for money. Challenging, well maintained greens. Nice landscaping on most holes.
Positive experience: Its not worth 27 green fee Hole stroke index are wrong Tee boxes are like the rough and muddy. Yes its been wet but they could be hand cut
Positive experience: Scruffy winter golf course, greens OK, long walk back after 9 holes.
Positive experience: Getting there but still a work in progress.
Negative experience: Re Woolfox. they appear to be spending lots of money on gyms and pools but have forgotten the golf course. The layout of the course has been changed to incorporate 6 par three's, the signage from green to green is inadequate with tee boxes and greens patchy . Worst course I've seen this season ! Perhaps I'm being unfair but will not return. Regards Dave.
Hi David, we are disappointed to hear you didn't enjoy your visit this weekend. Please may you get in touch via email as would like the opportunity to discuss your feedback? Our email is [email protected]
Positive experience: Will be a cracking course once again when the new layout settles in
Positive experience: A usually good track under long term redevelopment. Hopefully better when it's finished
Positive experience: Quite like the change to the front nine with the new tees and holes. They need time to settle in.. Condition not that good but it has been a very dry summer. One annoying thing though.. Played around 5 30 and the sprinklers came on the greens as we were played.
Positive experience: Not quite ready yet in my opinion. Will be great once the development has finished.
Fantastic experience: I really like this golf course and as I’m a high handicapper I’m not too worried about the greens etc. they have been doing a lot of work putting in lakes and they are going to change some of the holes soon. The old club house is under renovation but the driving range has been refurbished and there is a little bar and outside area there which is where all the golf activities are based. The staff are very helpful and Mark the Pro is really friendly too. I’m sure the course will continue to improve, I’m particularly hopeful once the changes to the course are complete they will sort out the tee boxes as some are quite uneven.
Positive experience: Course is in good nick. And looks like it'll be fantastic when the works are finished. What I'd really like to see is more signage. Not immediately obvious where the next tee box is or where you should sign in etc. Other than it's a nice set up.
Hi Liam, thank you for visiting Woolfox, and for your feedback. We have new signage on order to help with directions on the course which will be installed in time for our new 18 hole course layout which we plan on opening end of June/ start of July. We hope to see you again soon, take care.
Positive experience: I like this course, currently doing lots of work to make this even better.
Hi Mat, thank you for your review, glad you enjoyed your visit!
Positive experience: Day we played snow was on the ground,but soon cleared and it was most enjoyable Fairway and greens where great when finished I would like to play it again.
Positive experience: This course has great potential once fully completed.Staff very helpful. Would play there again
Positive experience: Nice course will be even better once improved
Fantastic experience: Only used the driving range but well set up, nice coffee shop/beers/snacks . Good value £8 for 100 balls.
Fantastic experience: Nice course some long par's open fairways once trees have got bigger with add some more hazard
Positive experience: Great morning at Woolfox. Only played the back 9 but the course and greens were in excellent condition, especially for winter
Fantastic experience: Very enjoyable day even though it was a bit sloppy under foot
Fantastic experience: Great experience at the woolfox today. Young lad in the shop/cafe was very helpful and knowledgeable. Driving range has been updated, much easier to get balls using card. Played the back 9 and the course was in excellent condition for this time of year.
Thanks for your review and feedback! We hope to see you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Under new management, very impressive.
Fantastic experience: Enjoyed today,s golf even though it was a bit on the wet side.
Positive experience: Had a lovely time on the driving range with my grandchildren .but very expensive for food and drink also range balls expensive coffee £3 .a bottle of coke £2.85.with three grandchildren not good value for money
Fantastic experience: Fade & Draw golf society played there today 14 of us. Made us feel very welcome. Always a good firm course even midwinter course plays well. Today greens fairways spot on (well done to the green keepers). It’s a fair price for what you get and always accommodating and polite. Thanks for having us and look forward to our next visit Wayne
