I recently played the old Thonnock course as part of a society day. I have previously played the Karsten lakes Course and had always received positive feedback about the old course. I was extremely impressed by the assistance and welcome made by the staff and the course provided a tidy test for players of all standards. I felt the course penalised poor shots but true, straight driving was rewarded. The course wasn't particularly long and allowed some of our senior members a pleasant day out without being exhausting. the catering was first class and the setting of the venue very impressive. I shall recommend the course and facilities to all. Ironically I played poorly but that was down to a bad day at the office as opposed to the course.

played karsten lakes on 5th november 2007, anyone would have thought it was late summer not winter, the course was in fantastic condition and the greens were true. we booked a winter special not sure what to expect only to be met by friendly staff who directed us to where we got our coffee and bacon butty, there were loads of bacon on it and the coffee was good too. after playing 18 holes on karsten lakes which was a fantastic course and only got held up on the final 2 holes. we packed our kit into the car then went upstairs to get our meal, home-made meat pie with proper chips peas and gravy. it was delicious served up by very friendly staff. £22.50 for all this, we will be making a return visit soon, probably to play the other course which i've read is just as good if not better than the one we played. a must for any non-fair weather golfer this winter!

Played the Thonock Park course in the wind and rain last week and it stood up pretty well. This is regarded as THE championship course, rather than the longer Karsten Lakes course, although both are apparently good.

Huge clubhouse and generally excellent facilities, especially the PING fitting centre and driving range next door.

Played Karsten Lakes on 15/10/6. Phoned a week before and found the girl on the phone very friendly and the green fee of £30 included a full english breakfast, its easy to find (sat nav took me straight there). We were greeted by very friendly staff and the restaurant staff were also very quick and efficient. The full English is quality. We sauntered onto the 1st tee ten minutes early and there was nobody in sight, we caught a 3ball up after 8 and they very kindly let us straight thru and they were the only people who were in front or behind the whole way round. I've played 15 courses for the first time this year including Woodhall Spa and this one played the longest, ok, the ball wasnt rolling very far but there are no par 3's under 340yds and lots of really testing holes, the course is in fantastic condition for the time of year and the greens were very receptive and true. I enjoyed the 6th hole, but, to be honest every hole was as good as the last, no filler holes on this course. All this and I had the worst round of the year. The club really excel in every area and Ping have done a great job with giving the golfer just what they want, 2 great courses, courteous, friendly staff and a great english breakfast. We will definitely be going back here again this year.
