Very well appointed and comfortable rooms. Could have done with aircon as we were there for th e hottest days on record in the hottest part of the country! Nothing they could do about this of course. Friendly and helpful staff. Some of the lads used the pool and were impressed with it and the process of using it. Bars were pricey even with 10% reduction and the cost of 4 buckets of chips fpor us watching the Open after playing on the Sunday at £63 was ridiculous. Food was fine and filling with excellent breakfasts, outstanding in fact. The service was very good and outstanding at breakfast. Very happy overall. 'Chipgate' didn't spoil it. We would very much recommend it as a venue, it served our needs perfectly and enabled us to have an outstanding time despite the limitations the weather brought. I've canvassed opinion before writing this so this is a reflection of the general feeling. Very happy.

The accommodation was very comfortable and I was almost sneaking a couple of pillows into my bag they where that comfy. The bar staff are friendly but a bit of commonsense could prevail, no need to show the same person serving me the 10% discount slip everytime I placed an order but I suppose he was only doing his job. Was a tad on the pricey side I felt as did others. We had dinner pre booked and I must say this was the biggest let down, it felt like we where an after thought, and that we had pre paid for dinner that it was OK not to put too much effort into it. The first night I had chicken terrine that looked like it had been cut using a meat slicer it was that thin, which of course meant it had dried out as it was clearly preped we in advance, without going through every dish all in all the food left a lot to be desired and in fact a number of us phoned in a takeaway later on. All in all Nice friendly staff, lovely rooms but food really needs to be better as it let the side down

At checking in, they did not ask us to preorder food which we apparently needed to do. As we found out later when we went to eat. Then the twin rooms only had one double bed in them. This got sorted out eventually, but some of the party ended up sleeping on Z beds with thin mattresses, which was not the best. The quality of the evening meal food was average at best (although breakfast was good). And although it was not the biggest inconvenience, there were signs and flyers everywhere telling you to ensure you had registered your car or you’d be fined if you parked there. But as the hotel is miles away from anywhere, who would park there unless you are at the hotel or golf course. So why the need to have messages everywhere threatening people with fines for parking and not registering. It’s not the most welcoming experience. I appreciate Covid is still causing hotels big issues, it was busy (possibly too busy for them to cope), and the golf was great, which was the most important part of it. However, we’ve visited Forest Pines 5 or 6 times now as it is such great value, but the general consensus was that we’d probably look somewhere else in the future as anything non-golf related is going downhill there.

The hotel was ok, certainly adequate for a golf trip away. Staff in general were not the best, a little rude and abrupt at times, the food and service at dinner wasn’t good. That said, we were here for the golf not for the hotel experience, and on balance the staff on the bar on the Saturday night were good (if not a little overworked). The problem overall, was that the resort in general had bitten off more than they could chew. There were two large golf society groups booked in on the Saturday, the FA Cup final, a wedding, it was chaos for the staff who just didn’t have the numbers to cope. The overbooking of facilities became more apparent when on the Saturday at the starters hut, we were informed just how busy it was and that they would “try and get us on”. Not get us on early or late, but at all! Thankfully we were out on time, it may have been a comment made in the heat of the moment faced with more golfers and tee times than they should have had on the course. We were out early afternoon on the Sunday and decided to sit on the veranda an hour before our tea time, and with every table littered with plates, cups and glasses yet to be cleared from breakfast was another clear sign the staff were struggling to cope. For an established resort and golf in high season they should have the knowledge and experience to be able to staff appropriately. Prices at the bar were on the high side, we were charged £24 for 3 pints! Just be prepared that you are paying hotel bar prices and then some.

We have always previously enjoyed ourselves at this venue but it will take a great deal of persuasion and improvment before we return.

The Hotel staff at Forest Pines are exceptional and did all they could to make our stay enjoyable. The breakfasts are very good and the dinners are tasty. Beer was reasonably priced too about about £3.75 per pint. As for the golf courses, we found the Forest and Pines courses a bit similar in the challenges they set. You had to be fairly long and accurate off the tees and were still left with long irons in for the majority of holes. I’d recommend perhaps playing from more forward tees to maximise enjoyment. The Beeches course offered more in the way of variety and although there were two very long par 4s, some of the holes were shorter and doglegged. We thought this was the most enjoyable of the three courses. Overall we were very happy with our experience.

We had a really good break at Forest Pines and as usual, you guys at YGT didn’t let us down with your recommendation! All 3 loops of 9 holes were of equally great condition and very well kept with fairways like carpets, even during the spell of hot weather of late. All of the greens run very true and smooth as well. Forest Pines is certainly a good challenge and although you do need to be straight, there are certainly a few birdie chances; maybe even an eagles if you are ok with a fairway wood! We all found the clubhouse very welcoming and spent quite a lot of time sitting on the balcony watching other golfers come down the stretch with a cold beer on the go, the prices for which were slightly high but not extortionate. Food in the restaurant was of great quality – dined once in restaurant – and on our second night we dined in the clubhouse area as this was great value for money. All of the guestrooms were of good standard too and we used all the leisure areas as well to chill and unwind which was a bonus. All members of staff were friendly and you could quickly build a good rapport with them which is important in such a setting. I’ve already recommended Forest Pines to others and would give it a 9/10 overall...very much one we would go back to. Hope this all reads ok and thanks again,we will be doing more trips and will certainly be in contact with Your Golf Travel again.

Let me start by saying a big thank you for arranging our trip to the Forest Pines Hotel and Golf Resort. It has been a pleasure to deal with your golf travel. We were very surprised on how easy and quick we were able to arrive at the hotel, easy parking both at the hotel and the Golf club. The hotel is well signposted too and just of Junction 4 of the M180. The course consists of 3 9hole courses: Forest (3291yds), Pines (3551yds) and Beeches (3102yds) and although the courses run parallel, they are entirely separated by stands of trees. The tee boxes and fairways were well cut and well looked after, the greens are excellent and undulating with many featuring at least two tiers. We purchased a Strokesaver Course guide and it was invaluable in negotiating the course so I’d recommend doing the same for other first timers. The water features are intimidating but negotiable, bunkers and lateral water ditches are well marked, but as I found to my cost the deep pot bunkers are nasty!! The hotel was what you would expect from a 5star establishment with reception courteous and friendly, superb food and an excellent overall presentation. Prices are what you should expected from this standard of hotel; expensive but not overly so. The four of us were all agreed we would return without hesitation.

The degree of difficulty varied amongst us as a group but by vote, the difficulty aspect was hard compared to average. We suggest it may have been a tad slow, and we did not see marshalls patrolling, but the speed was definitely not down to the ladies groups that were present, in fact several of our guys want to know where the women are playing next year haha

By day 2 they had improved and on day 3 they where much better, obviously had time to dry out. The practice areas let the resort down, can't hit any drivers and no short game area put a bit of a dampner on it for a few of us who like to warm up before a round, felt like we had lost a bit of the whole experience we look for when we go away.

The course itself is picturesque, pristine fairways lined with tall pines and rhododendrons, think Woburn and Augusta in terms of aesthetics. Fairways were firm and well manicured, a well hit drive would see the ball roll out a good 40 yards or so. Greens were very firm and played almost links style, you were often better playing one slightly short and rolling on than hitting the green on the carry. The mix of the 3 x 9 holes gave something different on each nine, Pines being the tightest and toughest of the 3. Forest was like Pines but with a little more to play with off the tee, certainly more accessible to golfers of all handicaps. Beeches is your thinking golfers nine, an iron off the tee was a safer bet in most instances. The course itself is very tough in general, the slope rating will give you an indication of this. If you’re a new golfer or a high handicapper, there are other resorts that would better suit your game without breaking your will and ruining your enjoyment of the sport. If you hit it straight, have 220+ yds off the tee and your irons don’t hook or slice then you’ll probably have a great time here. If you’re struggling with any of the above this course will eat you alive. That said, as a single digit handicapper, it was a real test but incredibly enjoyable. I would say had I come here when I was a high handicapper I would have probably shot well over 110. It’s not for the faint hearted, don’t expect to shoot your handicap if you’re playing off upwards of 20. Greens were firm and fast but were being worked on so not in the greatest condition, not bad by any means for greens that get peppered by society groups all day every day. The major downside, regardless of which loop of nine you were on, was that it was massively overcrowded. We waited on every single tee box. That added 60 minutes to each loop of nine. That’s a long day on the course. We found that groups also disregard what they’re told to go and play and just hop onto a different loop once they’re out of sight, further disrupting the flow of the round. Don’t expect a quick 18 - You’ve been warned! Did I enjoy it? Yes. Would I come back? Not a chance. There are much, much better places to stay and play for this price point.

There are a lot of trees, but that is part of the joy of the course - occasionally they hide the ball and at other times they bounce back onto the fairway. This is more challenging than our usual course, but that it why we chose the overnight and 2 rounds - to get more experience.

4 hours for the round on Saturday was just about bearable but over 3 hours for 9 holes on Sunday was a joke A suggestion would be to check handicaps of players as it was obvious the fourball in front on Sunday were not players perhaps a ranger on the course would be an idea as they had lost a hole and had no idea of etiquette. The course has obviously had a lot of traffic which has had detrimental affect on the course condition. Positives the Starters were really friendly and accommodating. Overall disappointed in the overall weekend experience and would not recommend this complex to friends as far better options and courses closer to home.

The 3 nine hole loops are in great condition, bunkers are very good and as long as you are a fairly competent bunker player not to much of a problem, stunning surroundings with all the tall, mature trees framing the fairways is lovely, if you can’t stay on the fairway you’ll lose shots very quickly, only one slight criticism would be that the signage from green to the next tee on some holes could be better, all in all a great break away 🏌️‍♂️

Hope you are ready for a rant! Day 1we had a 2-30 tee time so at 1pm we went to get some balls for the range( as advertised on the YGT site) we were told sorry we have no balls!! But feel free to hit your own, we went to the range to find there isn’t one! There is a small practice area where nothing more than a 5 iron could be hit if there was balls obviously, there was a very very old net for driver and 3wood but the net is forlorn and has holes there are two very old and very uneven to hit from but just one rubber tee, anyway we went and played our first loop of nine and by time we started 2nd loop the course was basically empty, day 2 our tee time was 2pm so again we went at 1pm to get some balls to at least practice our irons oh surprise they had no balls again if you can believe that, anyway we done our first loop of 9 and then our 2nd loop was again on an empty course. Day 3 No balls again to practice this time at 9am, so we talked to the starter a man we had not seen at all the previous 2 days which we soon became glad of, this gentleman took great pleasure in telling us that 90% of the people who come and play are not good enough to be there and should not really come, he then told us something we were unaware of in that whatever your tee time for the first loop of 9 is the second loop must be started 2hours later and you are issued a tee time as such further if you seem to be getting a bit late he will be out chasing you and you will probably miss your second tee time and either wait ages or not play, now we always only intended to play 9 as a long drive home and we told him this however he still revelled in finding us on the ninth tee to tell us we were late bearing in mind we were battling in the horrendous rain to have hit Lincolnshire that day I felt like telling him where to stick his second nine, finally as he also liked to say this is a championship standard course but as we pointed not one of the 27 tees has a yardage board or hole map just a small concrete tile hidden away, some tee signs would surely make the place look better as for being championship yes the course is great but the facilities are very poor, so if you have got this far I would sum up course great facilities poor and the starter beyond rude, would we go again ? ....NO

We played Forest & Pines and these had better greens between them, still some roll issues at times but overall a lot better greens experience.
