Beccles Golf Club

I'd feel bad giving it 2 stars, because at the end of the day it's £5 for 9 holes! Good for practice as greens (although ok - very slow obvs) are very small, so quite testing. The fairways are very stoney in places, which can scuff your clubs, so be aware of that & the abundance of rabbit holes can result in a challenge to find your ball on occasions. So if you can put up with these few flaws & a few dog walkers with little or no awareness of golfers (as it is public land) it's a more rewarding alternative to going to the driving range!

Google Maps location is totally wrong.The course is not marked by signs at all.Entrance at end of Common Road dead end. No entrance from A146.A unique golfing experience. The worst golf course I've ever played. Thats why its s a tenner for 18 holes....or more.But the greens are decent. Unmanned clubhouse. Bring food & drink with you.Finding your way from hole to hole is an art form. Fairways are mostly indistinguishable from off fairway.If theres a local at the usually locked clubhouse their guidance is useful.Lost balls are often found in rabbit holes.People wandering across holes usually with dogs is common.Still enjoyed the experience though.

Well, generally in life you get what you pay for. So for just £5 a round, don’t expect too much and you won’t be disappointed.No one answered the phone after several calls, the clubhouse was closed and there were no signs anywhere about parking - the club doesn’t have its own car park so we worked out you had to leave you car in the public dog-walkers car park 250m away.Once back at the clubhouse a sign said to put our money in one of the envelopes provided, take a scorecard and post our envelope through the clubhouse door. There were no envelopes and no scorecards. Nevertheless we posted our money and went to find the first tee.The tee boxes (if you could find them) and fairways (careful not to break an ankle) were atrocious but in fairness, the greens were excellent - true and well maintained, but very slow.If you set your expectations very low and have nowhere better to go, give it a try - it’s a real challenge in every way !!!

This course is very much shared with the public so you must be mindful of their presence. We had a great 9 holes for£10. A volunteer described the course and was very welcoming. Weather permitting will be returning.

Arrived at the course not knowing what to expect, there was alot of dog walkers!Fairways are absolutely covered in rabbit holes so I lost a good few balls today.Was good fun, but a very difficult course mainly due to the maintenance on the fairways made me picture back In 1899 how courses where then!At a £5 for 9 holes you can't expect too much, but I'd say it's worth the price more for enjoyment!If your expecting really nice smooth fairways, this isn't the case but if you want a challenging raw course to test yourself play here!

Disgraceful. Terrible quality with no sign of maintenance whatsoever. Gave up after the 3rd hole due to the amount of dog walkers standing on the fairways. Either this is a public common or a golf course. It really doesn't work as both. Spend a bit extra and play a proper game of golf elsewhere.

I appreciate you only get what you pay for, but this has got to be the worst course I have ever played. Lose so many balls due to rabbit holes on the fairways. Dog walkers all over the course and they don't care . Then you have to find your way around the course that's a job in itself. Not 18 hole course only 9 to be played twice. .

Found this course on the web and decided to give it a go. Tried to ring and no answer and that's because no one is there, it works on an honesty box. Put £5 per person in the letter box., Sign in the book and take a card, some difficult T shots and watch out for people crossing the course, as it is on a public common. Quite a difficult little course as you have little idea where your t shots are going because the fairways are riddled with rabbit holes. The greens are very good though and we really enjoyed the challenge. Give Caldecote hall a miss and play this instead.

Worst golf course I have ever seen in my life. Ground not maintained at all, such bad quality. Dog walkers walking on the course constantly. Ground very uneven and bumpy. Course covered in rabbit holes. Gave up after 5 holes. Worst course ever, should be free, can’t charge people for that.

Don't expect Augusta, but for a fiver for 9 holes you can't really complain, very challenging tee shots on a couple of the holes, fairways are a bit rough so do recommend playing preferred lies, loved that they run a honesty system there, just have to put the cash through the letter box.
