For my Golf Courser Review of the Hawkstone Park Golf Club I organised a golf weekend 'stay and play' for 7 friends. We do this every year and make a competition out of it. This year we chose Hawkstone Park.
Its got 2 courses, 'The Hawkstone' and 'The Championship'. Both are very different from each other, but fantastic in their own right. The Hawkstone is the more scenic of the two, with some quite spectacular scenery as it cuts through 'The Follies'. Its fairly hilly, with many blind holes requiring fairway markers to show you the way. The Championship course is a longer, more open format with more water involved and fairly typical of an american style layout. I love both, but i think The Championship course just edged it for me. Spoke to one of the members there and he said The Hawkstone is more well regarded, so just goes to show you its all about individual taste.

Only shame was that the greens, although good, werent excellent. Probably because they had just been aerated. I'm sure they'll be better later in the season. The hotel is nothing special at all, and feels like it needs updating a bit. However none of us minded one bit, because the golf was fabulous and we all said we'd definitely go again.

This is a good design, not a long course but if your not straight off the tee you will find trouble. members and staff make you feel welcome. I food in the clud to be great. A good day out for golfers as has 36 holes, the other course is longer and more of a challenge.
