Hi, looks like we are visiting in August for 2 round golf break staying in the lodge. Has anyone been there? What’s the course like?

Course is good, played it a few times, make sure to get buggies can be quite a trek between holes
Assuming you mean the Manor House Hotel and Ashbury Hotel complex
I have been told they operate the 90 degree rule unless you take a medical certificate. My mate was booked in for 4 days but had to come home after one day because he had not got one.
Never played there myself but I understand there is a lot of difference in the quality between the 6 courses.
Drive buggy on buggy path all the way to level with your golf ball then straight left or right to your golf ball play it then get off the fairway straight to the path.I have been told they operate the 90 degree rule unless you take a medical certificate. My mate was booked in for 4 days but had to come home after one day because he had not got one.
Sorry if I’m being thick, but what is the 90 degree rule?

Yeah I’d put CC 3rd on that list. Any course that ‘requires’ a buggy due to its design loses prominence to me.CC is a great course to visit on a trip, might drive you nuts as a member, it's quirky and usually nicely kept. Par 3s are good, a couple of odd holes, but a tough walk so buggy is worth having.
From there you can get away to play Bowood or The Players Club too...
I think he means Castle Combe, if so a nice course but could be a bit of a slog for higher handicaps. I concur with the buggy comment, 17 to 18 is a long uphill trek !!
