  • 5 out of 5 Best in the county by a mile

    By Dwill1988

    Longcliffe is in outstanding condition. It's a challenge for every level of golfer, very narrow in parts with tree lined fairways and that lovely whispy long grass rough. Each hole is different with plenty of character. Stroke 1, 2, and 3 will sort the men from the hackers, pars a great on all three. The 15th is a delight as a par 3 from an elevated tee. All in all a great course.

    Played on a beautiful March morning with the course virtually empty.  It is  visually similar to both Willesley Park and Lingdale, but all together in a different league.  This a beautiful course and in my mind the best in Leicestershire by a long way. But its also the most difficult!  Narrow fairways cut through mature forest are hard enough, but then with a camber that takes your ball into the trees if your position is anything less than perfect, make the course even more testing.  The par 3's are tight and long, and its understandable why this course would host most of Leicestershires matches and competitions - its an exceptional course and if you play well here you can play anywhere.  I suppose the only criticism I have is the constant traffic noise from the M1, but if you are looking for a Woborn style course at less than half the price then beat a path to Longcliffe near Loughborough, you will not be disappointed.  It is that good.
