We had a great time away, but found the hotel a bit tired, had visited before when it was a Marriott and was great. The club house on arrival had little food and on bitter filter coffee available as the machine wasn’t working so we headed to the main hotel bar to see if we could get a bite to eat and the bar area was closed so no tea’s or coffees available and no food so we all headed out to a nearby McDonalds. The food for the evening meal was OK but just average. Value wise it was OK for what we paid but just found the facilities a bit lacking and tired. Service through booking via Your Golf Travel was great and couldn’t have been more helpful, polite and informative!

My husband found the cooked breakfast a little in cool side as had been there a while but that’s only slight downside.

Sprowston is a nice hotel,a bit tired in places but overall very nice. The staff were extremely polite and friendly, especially in the bar and restaurant. Reception wasn't always manned, which can be frustrating but I assume that was because there wasn't enough staff to go round. The food was OK. Because we had a package deal with the golf, we had to pre order, as there were 8 of us and the menu was extremely limited, only 2 or 3 options for each course. We saw other people were offered other more varied options. Portions were quite small. As for breakfast, this was poor. Dried up food, with grey looking scrambled eggs and leathery bacon etc and the continental breakfast not very enticing. However this wouldn't stop us coming again, as the gokf was great and it's proximity to Norwich park and ride is excellent (just a few minutes walk down the road) which was great for the members of our group that don't play golf. The ladies enjoyed that and also the spa facilities.

Look the Garry of course was terrific. The food overall was good. We were 12 for golf so the priority was socialising and golf. But the golf bar closed at 530 pm when golfers were still out. We teed off at 1115 so we're back in time other societies were not so could not get a drink or snack. The restaurant bar didn't open til 6 pm no lunch snacks or a lunchtime pint there. It also closed at 1030. So we could not enjoy the evening in the hotel. You can't put your expense on the room, cash or card only even though they took a card up front. Meals wer fron 630 to 8. We had booked meals through you. However on Saturday they forgot about us when we arrived at 730, all 12. They said it was fully booked even though we had paid already. After a fuss they found a side room and wavered the food cash supplements, you need to warn people that some meals have hidden supplements, £6.50 for beef wellington and £5 cheese board. actually the side room allowed us to be noisy but of course we were forgot so the meal took ages. The rooms on the whole were clean but really hot. The windows only opened an inch. Our room had a pungent smell all the time, no room service so we had to hunt down tea coffee milk toilet roll soap etc. A member of staff said the new owners, Britannia hotels, look them up, halved staff hence the closure of the bars and slow and short meal times. We've been here before and enjoyed drinking eating etc at the hotel but if that's what a golf society wants, and on the whole you do, you will be disappointed.

We recently stayed for a Sunday Driver, the course is in good condition and was a good challenge, however, the hotel restaurant was chaotic. Having booked a table for dinner at 8 pm we were finally served our starter at 8.55, we did receive an apology. The food was good when it arrived however the cheese board was disappointing as it contained "Babybel" which is very inexpensive. The staff tried their best but could do with more training. Breakfast was poor, with most things running out at the same time, coffee, bacon eggs, etc. After reporting to the staff that more was needed it took 15 minutes before it arrived. Conclusion, good course shame about the hotel.

Breakfast chaotic too many people trying to use a poorly laid outbuffet, lack of small plates, many hot item not refreshed, most people not wearing masks or distancing.

Sprowston golf course was in great condition, bunkers/greens all of it. However the course is not very exciting, very much up and down the fairways in straight lines.

Obviously with the warm weather the fairways were really dry and u didn't know what way the ball was going to go after hitting the ground so had to get club selection spot on otherwise the bounce and roll could leave u short or over pitched was not happy with some club members telling us to speed up when it was the 4 ball and the 3 ball in front of us were slow

Described as hard as two rounds of 4 people and only one round to handicap. Greens had been treated but still played true so easily overcome once pace worked out.

Probably the best course we’ve played on our weekends away. In great condition but the greens had been spiked and treated which made them bumpy, just like all greens at this time of year. Quite slow at times, but it was very busy. More than willing to play it again.

The course should have been closed as it was waterlogged. We only played 7 holes partially due to the really wet conditions but also as we caught up a 4 ball of mature men who slowed the game but we’re disinclined to let us through.

Unfortunately we played in horrible conditions as it rained heavily throughout the first day and last part of the second. So the course was muddy in places. In better weather conditions it would be a pleasant parkland course to play on.

Unfortunately the weather was not good and it rained for half the round on the first day, and all day for the second day, so hence the ground was sodden and partially flooded in places. It would be great to go back and play under better circumstances, as it does seem a lovely course!

Played 2 rounds. First was very slow (we were behind a society) but second was much better. Course took a lot of rain in the days leading up to our visit, so was pleasantly surprised that only a couple of holes had drainage issues. Greens were very good condition and diverse/challenging. Shame we couldn’t get buggies both days. Also disappointing that the club house didn’t serve food and closed very early.

Course would be challenging on any day but with the wet weather this weekend and no run on the fairways plus long par 3s as well it was a great course, shot a 90 and my pal 84 really enjoyed and a few beers in the zest cafe bar was a nice end to a great day😁👍

the course was a real gem! I have rated it as hard purely as the greens were lightening fast and I could not get the rub of them! tee boxes were in good condition, fairways were nice, but obviously dry. you could easily pick your way around with an iron all day, but there some good long holes for the driver. only 1 x par 3 of around 150yrd, the rest were all over 185yds long.

Really enjoyed the course that was ideal for a mid to high handicapper. Unfortunately on the Sunday [and we're not told] we were behind a junior competition that resulted in the first 9 holes taking two and three quarter hours! Not helped by the lack of course etiquette of the accompanying adults, marking cards on greens. parking up trolleys on the front. BUT Monday morning was wonderful and toatl package was tremendous value.
