Purbeck suffers horribly in the dry weather. An already tough course is made close to impossible with rock hard fairways that slope - a good drive can easily see a ball roll and roll until it’s lost. Appreciate the club can’t help the weather but we won’t play again in the summer months.

Very warm welcome from Pro. Practice facilities ok, though we had to go and pick our own balls up (at least they were free). First couple of holes a bit dull, but the course opens up after the first 4 holes or so and becomes really good fun.

The most picturesque course in the area, beautiful views from many holes. The fairways are really struggling and don’t have much grass on them. This I believe is due to an infestation of leather jackets. The greens were quite slow and long but it was still worth playing if for the views alone.

The course and location are stunning and the greens are in great condition but the fairways are in a terrible state its such a shame. I don't know if this is down to the tough seasonal weather or bad management but it needs to be addressed. Preferred lies on every fairway says it all. Nice bar and facilities but the service is slow.

Having played Purbeck before we decided to play again. It is a quirky course with fantastic views and is more of a natural course rather than manicured pristine track. However this should not be open to the paying public in its current condition. The fairways have no grass only mud, and even on preferred lies you could not find a decent lie. The greens were terrible, tees are shabby and we finished the last 3 holes in the dark as the round took nearly 5 hrs. Unfortunately one to avoid.
