Probably 4 and a half stars, only glitch is the incredibly slow service in the main restaurant when more than half full. On one occasion we waited over 50 minutes before even a basket of bread arrived. There is no buffet breakfast for cold items (all waited service) so be prepared to get there early or you might miss your tee time. Expensive but almost worth it.

Being 20 golfers we were never going to be quiet however we were not overly noisy or rowdy but we were told to quieten down within a very noisy restaurant which we all thought was unnecessary as we had to raise voices to be heard. Apart from that the ambiance was very good. The rooms were excellent and the facilities outstanding.

Room was great, a lot of our food wasn’t very hot - cold asparagus and egg starter ( no one even checked us ), cold steak for main which was sorted out and then not very hot breakfast !! The bar gents were amazing and were very helpful and knowledgeable, restaurant weren’t horrible or rude just look like they definitely need training. I had no tv remote in my room - again they were trying to sort out. I had to wait half an hour but it still didn’t work ( I just had to turn the tv over manually) , but just expect a bit More really to be honest.

Have to say that the one let down of the trip was the food. Chef was unable to cook a simple steak rare. I sent it back and the waitress returned it saying that this was as rare as the chef could get it...seemed very odd as it was clearly medium rare / medium. Order an accompanying peppercorn sauce and it was without doubt the worst sauce I have ever had. No flavour and basically the consistency of water. Very poor. Breakfast in the morning also a let down. All items stone cold. disappointing to say the least

This is a very challenging course but in great condition. For tired legs the 15th seems like a par 6, and then the climb to the ladies’ tee on the 16th is a shock to the system! But we love the course and look forward to playing it again.

It would have been nice to know that no greens were in operation as the course was under maintenance, especially as we had to pay the highest fee to book the dates.

We will visit again I’m sure.

We played towards the end of Jan so the course was a little wet in places but perfectly playable. Bowood is a great track, some really lovely holes. It was playing very long due to the lack of run so if you are not a long hitter and play it in the winter be prepared to be hitting in rescues or long irons to most of the greens. It has without doubt the best positioned bunkers of any course I have played. You really need to drive the ball long and straight to avoid them. Rough was not too punishing but they tell me in the summer it is knee high. All in all a great course and we all agreed that we would like to return in the summer to test ourselves again when the course will have a bit of bounce on the fairways and hopefully the sun will be on our back
