In my golf course review of The Dorset Golf and Country Club Lakeland I found the course to be set in great scenery and environment. Staff and members make you feel very welcome. The course was in good condition for the time of year, greens were a nice speed and rolling true. I liked the par 3's best you have a good mix of short and long a good test of golf. You get good value food in the clubhouse.

The hotel is worth staying rooms are great for a golfing break. Course was in great condition when I played I thought the 12/13 holes were the best on the course a good test with water on both of the holes.
A great place to stay and play

In my golf course review of The Dorset Golf and Country Club Lakeland I found it to be great value for money, what you get its a great place to play well worth a day out or stay in the hotel. There is also another 9 holes but I did not play it. The Staff and members make you feel welcome. The course was in good condition when I played but the bunkers were not well looked after.
An enjoyable day out

In my golf course review of The Dorset Golf and Country Club Lakeland I found the Staff and members to be friendly and helpful. The course was in good condition but the only bad thing I could say was the bunkers were not well looked after. You get great food in the clubhouse and it's also great value.

The Club has great facilities not just for golf you have a Gym and indoor Bowls .The clubhouse which has a full catering section with excellent food and great value.
A great day

For my Golf Course Review of the The Dorset Golf and Country Club, Lakeland Course I have played it a few times now on society days plus and overnight stay and have enjoyed myself every time. Its a very challenging but fair course with superb large undulating greens. Many water features and clover shaped bunkers make it very interesting and its important to think and plot your way round. The range and practice facilities are very good which I rated 9 out of 10. The clubhouse and restaurant and superb. Every meal I have had was delicious and the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. We had some terrible rain on one occasion and the greens flooded but drained brilliantly and were playable within half an hour. The Scandinavian Log Home accommodation is truely stunning with all the facilities I needed and I can see how they have obtained a 5 star grading from the British tourist board. This is a must if you are looking for a venue in Dorset to play golf, and I would certainly recommend this venue.

For my Golf Course Review of The Dorset Golf and Country Club, Lakeland Course I found that despite the wet weather over the last couple of days the fairways were not as good as they should have been compared to other courses in the area and I rated them 6 out of 10. The Tees were not very good but the greens were good and they got an 8 out of 10 in general the Cleanliness and Manicuring of the Course was average. The Layout and Design of the Course is pretty good and it does make the Challenge presented by the Course a stiff one. To summarize the The Dorset Golf and Country Club is good value for money and my overall Enjoyment of the course was 7 out of 10.

In my Golf Course Review of the The Dorset Golf and Country Club, Lakeland Course I found that the course has wide fairways compared to courses in the area but that the greens are difficult with loads of slopes. The course has great facilities especially the putting green which is the best in the area and this give the golfers a chance to brush up on their chipping. Our group spent time in the clubhouse which has a full catering section with excellent food. In summary although the course is probably the most testing in the area in my opinion it lacks atmosphere.

In my golf course review I would say that this is the best testing golf course in Dorset. Its long off the back tees; just over 7000 yards and it has a great mix of holes. There is plenty of water coming into play on 10 holes. The course is in good condition during the summer months but gets very wet in the winter. Its a shame this course probably has some of the worst condition bunkers of anywhere with lots of stones and they are not raked that well by players, plus the sand is very inconsistent. If you play in the winter you will find the bunkers are full of water. It can be slow to play as you get a lot of visitors and hotel guests, which proves its a popular course to play. Members and staff are very friendly and you get great food in the clubhouse. This is one of the best courses in Dorset!

There are 27 holes at the Dorset Golf and Country Club. The most challenging course to play is the Lakeland, which is the main 18. A great challenge from every tee, from yellow back to championship tees. The Woodland 9 is a short but challenging course in amongst rhododendrons. Looks fantastic when in full bloom. Very friendly members and staff are always very helpful and friendly.

A challenging Golf Course and one of the best in the area, maybe not as tight as some of the others but very long.
