To clear up any confusion... I think Perrenporth is great.

I cant believe Iford has had so many mentions, I spent many a happy day there during my early golf days! There are so many worse in Dorset. Gets a lot of unecassary bad press due to off course business issues!
Sturminster Marshall, Dudmoor Farm, and Queens Park (been ruined by changes to holes because of local residents and lack of money being spent on it!)
Thought the Hampshire in Andover was a bit of a field too.

Apparently quite a lot of us think Perranporth is great; could this be the first thread about the worst golf courses that spawns a forum meet?

It's great value too and only minutes from Newquay for a night out too!
Whilst I thought it was nothing special, Trevose is only 15mins or so away too

Pike Hills York for me. Uninteresting course with greens so bad in early October they were just a lottery.

I'll throw in Pitlochry - lots of people love it - I absolutely hated it, despite playing OK there.

Up in the north east, my worst few are Elemore (paid behind the bar for the round, flags about 3 feet high...), Knotty Hill - (every par 4 is a slight dog leg with every hole side by side) and Oak Leaf - just a damn awful course which is poorly maintained.

I have 4 that stand out for varying reasons -
Ivinghoe - just plain crap!
Beadlow Manor both courses (when theres more than 1mm rain)
New Malton - eco course needs to go back to using proper chemicals/traditional treatments I'm afraid, the worst greens and fairways I have played on (apols Scienceboy as I know its your old club)
Panshangar - I like the course in general and condition is good for a muni but found too many blind shots and the most PITA marshalls ever, I am not super quick but felt hurried all the time
all the courses on the Irish Craic this year purely cos I was awful

Thats must be a new thing at Panshanger, I have had some seriously slow rounds there.

Pitlochry is quirky, but fun. As is Braid Hills. I enjoyed both of them.
There are far worse courses out there.
Ivinghoe is a good shout, but like some others, I'm not sure a bottom five is fair. As has already been shown, opinions differ. Heck, I bet someone even likes Lydd. (I've not played there, so can't comment).

New Malton. Played a couple of years ago and couldn't tell rough from fairway when stood on the tee. Or from half way down the hole for that matter.

Oh no, can't agree with that. Nice course, brilliant scenery.... Once you played the first three holes and got up the top of the hill it's fine!

The only one of those I have played is Woodhall Spa, can't see many people having a problem with that being in somebody's top 5. Chart Hills is probably the only course that would cause debate as I've heard it's been in poor condition recently.

Playgolf Bournemouth (Iford) is extremely boring and flat, not bad condition but far from interesting. Queens park is much worse, dog walkers everywhere!
