We had a great time all in all, however we all felt that the rooms and the facilities that we used felt alittle dated. The snooker room was very dark and dingy. Staff were ever so friendly food was good. Bearing the above in mind we still felt we got good value for money.

The hotel and golf courses were pleasant. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, and the meals represented good value for money. However the decor and lighting are tired and the overall impression is rather gloomy. Our room was a really good size but the lighting was abysmal and extremely inadequate in the bathroom. The overall impression was outdated and tired. The corridor outside the room needed a good vacuum but this did not happen once during our four day stay. Overall if you are looking for a good value break without any bells or whistles, this venue would be a pleasant choice.

Just back from a very relaxing weekend at the Wensum Valley Golf and Country Club. The Ritz it ain't but for the money, we were all delighted with the setup and the stay. The hotel, though a little tired, is clean and comfortable. The food however, is outstanding and the 'carvery' on Saturday night superb. Alongside the two courses, The Valley and The Wensum are a real test for all abilities as it was for our party [hcps 6 - 28]. Also has a first class, well stocked pro shop with a very helpful team of people.

Just a few words on our weekend at Wensum Valley on 12th-13th November 2016.

My group are mostly ex cricket players who played for a village team, with none of us being members of a golf club or have a handicap, we play socially on several courses ,but there is still a bit of competition between us.

The course was in very good condition, considering the amount of rain that had fallen in the week prior

It rained nearly all day on the Saturday but it didn't spoil our enjoyment playing on a well kept course.

The Valley course was the most forgiven to all our group you could get away with a bad shot here and there and still manage to recover from it, unlike the Wensum which needed more of a precise tee shot on some holes or the water hazards ate your ball.

Everything went smoothly from arriving till we departed, the lads loved the swimming pool and we had several frames of snooker which again became a in group competition . The bar was reasonable priced and had a good selection of beers.

All the staff were very welcoming and helpful.

Booking in was easy and very efficientlly done , the food was incredible! Quality and excellent value for money , would highly recommend golfers get there Sunday round done by 3.00pm so not to miss the superb carvery.

We all gave Wensum a 9 out of 10 and all throughly enjoyed the weekend even with the rain.

Just would like to say thanks to you for sorting a great weekend for us at this top venue, and your professionalism in doing so, will definitely be getting in touch with you again .

And lastly I would not hesitate to recommend YGT to my family and friends in fact I already have.

Wensum Valley September 2nd - 5th

My party of 8 including me.

Both courses were in fine condition, the green's were superb and well watered and receptive. The fairways were a little brown but cannot fault them for lack of rain. The rough under trees was well trimmed and meant we had a good chance of finding our balls. We found the water on the course challenging!

The clubhouse was welcoming and the staff were very helpful and friendly, it was nice not to be overcharged for pint!!

The location was very easy to find and parking was excellent, we have in the past felt the need to explore the surrounding villages in search of a cheaper pint, but we all felt that there was no need because everything we needed was on hand.

The food was of a high standard which meant lots of cleared plates and the fact that breakfast was cooked to order and not buffet style went down well with everyone.

Everyone on the trip really enjoyed themselves and considering nobody had played there found the golf very enjoyable.

All in all thanks to the staff and the weather we would not hesitate to recommend Wensum Valley to our friends.

Our YGT rep, Seth Poulter was very efficient and handled all my enquiries quickly, I would recommend YGT to anyone.

The only reason I wasn’t impressed with the greens was that it looked like they had only just worked on them to get them ready. So the aerated holes were still visible and it was tough to put round and over them. The back nine of this course if a real challenge.

Apart from a large group of 24 holding us up hugely on the back 9, the Valley course proved very popular with all our group. A good test for all abilities like ours [hcps 6 - 28]. Wensum was slightly disappointing. Some of the fairways were in poor nick and the greens had just been top dressed with sand. The holes around the water section 11 - 16 were difficult to navigate. Overall, Valley 7.5/10; Wensum 6/10. Pro Shop staff 10/10

Unfortunately our last group out on the course were getting abuse from their following group about the speed of play; which had filtered down through all of our seven groups from in front.
