In my Parkstone Golf Course Review I felt that this was really an excellent Golf Course which was easy to book and the Accessibility of Course from Bournemouth was easy. The Welcome Experienced on Arrival was really great and it was easy to get around and I rated the Availability of Buggies/Carts/Caddies 8 out of 10. The Parkstone Golf Course has a very good Pro Shop and for those of you who like to practice before playing a 10 out of 10 putting green and practice range. The Atmosphere around the Course is good for golf and we had a timely tee off. The course is well presented so I rated the Cleanliness and Manicuring of the Course 9 out of 10. For me one of the highlights of the course was the Layout and Design of the Course which I rated 10 out of 10 only finding out later that the course was designed by Willie Park Jnr. To summarize the Parkstone Golf Course it is a most enjoyable course to play set in beautiful surroundings.

During my Parkstone Golf Course Review I felt this is a great old heath land design it has a good mix of holes from some short par 5's and a couple which need some really good shot to hit them in 2. If you are a long hitter this course will not test you unless you miss fairways as you will be in heather most of the time. It could do with being made longer or change some of the par 5's to 4's. The Parkstone Golf Course is in good condition most of the year just like all the old courses in the area.
A good day out

In my course review of Parkstone Golf Course I found this course to be over rated. Its not a long course and for the better player you have 5 par 5's which are all reachable and and par 4 you can drive. Its not a good test for the better player you feel that 4/5 under par is more like level around any other course. The course is in good condition most of the time and has a good views. Has a new clubhouse which is great and the Pro shop staff are friendly. Its a nice day but not a challenge.

In my Parkstone Golf Course Review I found this to be a very tight course and requires accurate driving. One of the highlights for me was the Layout and Design of the Course which had been done by Willie Park Jnr
