Reviews for Belmont Golf Course

For £8 a round, this course is great. Set in beautiful countryside just 15 minutes from Burton upon Trent, it’s a great location. The mixture of Par 3, 4 and 5 holes on the course is great. There is; however, a very good reason why it’s cheap. The greens are poor and simply weren’t “fair” when visiting in August, essentially lacking enough grass and weren’t rolled, watered or cut enough to provide an appropriate challenge. Perhaps the worst thing about the course is there is no semi rough and the rough is so deep that any balls not on the fairway are essentially lost. So it’s difficult to say who this course is for, beginners will lose a huge amount of balls whilst experienced players who can hit fairways in regulation are then cheated by the greens. Overall though, the price and setting still make this worth a go particularly if you’re not a member at a local club.
