Reviewed by Dorset GolferIn my golf course review of the Vale golf club I have found the course to be a good test. If you like to hit balls before you play don't bother the balls on the range are dreadful save your money. The course has some really good holes. Course was in a mixed condition tees and fairways were good, but the greens were slow and bumpy but the best I have seen them. Would not play in the winter as the course dose not take much rain to be under water. The hotel is really the best thing there. Staff are very helpful.

I have played the course on numerous occasions and am yet to play it in good condition. This is due to the wet weather. It is a tough challenging course, especially when windy. Not the best layout. Friendly pro shop. The best thing about it is the hotel complex. There are better courses than this nearby.
