Merrist Wood Golf Club in Guildford

First visit here in a year plus and you can really see the difference in the course. Last time out it was in a terrible state, but now the fairways and greens were in really good condition, and great to see the greenkeepers out tending the course regularly. Very happy to see the improvement as the course now provides great value and a good challenge. (Bunkers could do with an overhaul though)

good value for money but very tatty seriously needs some tlc ..tees barren .huge holes in middle of some fairways..bunkers full of weedsball cleaner on tee broken .no towel .such a shame as some lovely golf holes but appears no one cares ..

May 2022 review - Very well looked after Par 72 course. Greens were brilliant, credit to the ground staff. Good clubhouse and much better value for money compared to many other courses nearby.

Nice course, shame about the recent weather as fairways and paths were very wet. Greens were lovely considering bad weather. Will be returning in the nice weather. I would of given one more star but I realised after my round that this club is not affiliated with My EnglandGolf so I couldn’t submit my scorecard for handicapping. Overall good little gem

You get what you pay for here at £25ish a round. Greens were in OK condition but not great, the course itself is interesting with some fun holes. It's also very open so no need to worry about course management, just get the driver out!

I was impressed. Tough course with good quality greens and some long par 4 and par 5 holes. Signature 12 hole (short par 4 with 2nd shot over water) kicked our arse. We found out too late that it is the 4th hardest course in Surrey. My only quibble is that there is quite a lot of dried mud on the fairways from the winter months.

Fabulous golf course and good value. There are some stunning holes that offer a terrific golfing challenge, my favourites being 13 through to 15. Played here in January and the course is holding up well for the time of year. The team in the pro shop also very friendly and welcoming. Thanks!

Excellent course for the money. Paid £25 for an 08:15 tee time. On arrival it was so quiet so we tee’d off 15 mins earlier. There was hardly anyone else on the course which was great…. The course was pretty muddy in places but on the whole for this time of year it wasn’t too bad at all…. greens we’re in great condition and played well. It’s quite a tough long course in winter conditions but if you’re up for a challenge then it’s a great course. I honestly can’t see why it’s so quiet there…. We only saw about 3 other groups during our whole round. This course really is value for money and the staff were really friendly in the clubhouse afterwards. I really do recommend this club

Played last week and it was basically unplayable. Did not enjoy much of the round at all. Most fairways were mud baths and some you couldn’t even walk on to play your ball lol. Definitely not worth the £33 I was charged.

This is an amazing course although quite hard. The course has been sold recently and will be changed a bit. Hence, the general condition of the course is average. Greens where ok although very slow. Fairways looked a bit like short rough. Rough was really rough as you could lose your ball in it. Grass on the tee boxes is too tall.40£Pace of play was ok.played again today and was really great.
