Good Layout, worst maintenance
Reviewed April 16, 2019
From Jan 19 till April tried to phone the golfcourse. No one there. Homepage bookings not working. Arrived april 6. to play 10 days. Fairways, Tee boxes greens not cut for a long time, bunkers just mud, no sand at all. Garbage everywhere. They where starting on monday 8. to cut and clean. Wednesday 10. a swedish group of 140 players rented the course for 10 days excusively. Thanks to the swedish group we could at least start at sunrise 07:15 for the front 9 and sneak in for another 9 during the day. No pleasure at all to play under this circumstances.
The course is flat with a very charming and intersting layout. After first maintenance Greens are slow, fairways some good some are crapy salad, bunkers mud holes, Infrastructure generally is nice and solid but not maintained. The staff nice and helpful but not trained to maintain and run a golf course.
Price is cheap but was not worth the situation.
Has the potential to be a juwel for the double price.
But therefore you have to install a professionell management and fire the actual manager which we never have seen.
Until then... never again.

Dear Mike,
Firstly we would like to thank you for taking the time and writing this review, all the points made will be taken under serious consideration so that we will improve in every aspect possible. We understand your frustration since you couldn t play every day the 18 or 27 holes that you did the first days but we need to point out that your first attempt on contacting us via email was the 30th of March. I am unaware whether you tried to call, but our working hours are not the same during winter and we also divert the phone calls to my personal mobile so that we can serve our clients the best way possible. The course when you arrived was not only being maintained but also our Consultant from Scotland (Consultant for the European and Scandinavian tour with more of 20 years experience) was present and working with our staff. Indeed the first day on Sunday the greens were not cut but it was the only day. Furthermore you were informed before your arrival to Corfu that a group will be here and you were given alternatives based on availability. We are really sorry that even though we had no complaints whatsoever from 140 players (only positive feedback and thankful comments on social media) we couldn t live up to your standards.
We would like to thank you once more for all your comments and we hope one day when you return to Corfu to give us the chance to invite you at CGC
With my warmest regards

Nice place, completely neglected
Reviewed July 31, 2020
We spent the last two weeks of July 2020 on the course, which is really nice and not particularly difficult, yet it offers one or two challenges.
For the first few days, only the fairway was mowed. The grass next to the fairway, partly around the greens and behind the bunkers was knee high. If the ball fell into the semirough, it was no longer to be found.
After our complaint, the mowing was a little better.
There are fallen trees in the ponds, the bunkers are filled with a strange mixture of dust and coarse gravel.
Some bunkers are now grass troughs again.
It is dirty around the clubhouse, in the restaurant when it is open, but very clean.
At the reception and in the restaurant everyone is very nice and helpful when they are there.
Actually a shame, because the place could be a real gem.

Dear Jeannette,
Firstly i would like to thank you for taking the time and writing this review. Indeed it was a crazy year and unfortunately for 6 weeks during the complete lockdown we were unable to maintain the course. Since the greenkeeper s team were back working it was really hard to keep up with the cutting but every day there was progress made and along with your helpful comments we believe that the situation is gradually improving. We are really sorry that we cannot operate the office 7 days a week and 10 hours per day as we always used to but this year s circumstances made us operate upon request. I really hope that the next time you will visit us we will be able to offer you a golfing experience that you will enjoy in the outmost.
It was a pleasure having you with us and i hope you enjoyed your stay in Corfu.
With my kindest regards

Nice holiday
Reviewed September 24, 2018
Thank you for the very warm atmosphere in your club!
I booked the Silverweek and played the course every morning for one week. With rising sun and awakening nature a dream.
Of course, the heat and dryness of the playground to but every day gave the greenkeepers their best.
The place is not long, not very heavy but with small pitfalls. Never lose the balls in the reeds.
However, there is enough time to search, there were hardly any other players.
Many thanks and a warm efkaristo until next year, Stefan S.

Romantic beautiful place
Reviewed October 24, 2016
We were nin 3 x in Corfu and have played this course each time with a lot of joy.
He is naturally dry, but what do you expect in Greece. The greens are maintained, are very slow.
Particularly noteworthy is the beautiful covered with trees with the poplars and reeds. When the evening the sun goes down is wonderfully illuminated this beautiful place.
He is also playing very relaxed because most enjoyed our stay when we were there (early September)

Play Anyway
Reviewed July 16, 2016
The place was, despite the height of summer and the economic crisis in fair condition. One notices that must be gepart, but both the greens and the fairways were OK. When maintaining between the tracks and on the tee was saved.
The course is flat, so that at high temperatures only a cart is necessary. There are some tracks that are very interesting by ditches, ponds and trees. In the bunkers were many small Steichchen, so caution. When I come again to Corfu, I'll play the course definitely again.

Relaxed Golfing
Reviewed September 30, 2014
Very interesting course. We have in September 2014, the weekly green fee of 245, - EUR fully exploited and have played the place every day. The tracks are quite different, plenty of water, slow but directional stability greens. In the semi-rough but you lose like to a ball. Grown very dense and rather high. Clubhouse is nice, snacks are good and cheap, staff very friendly. The only minus point unfortunately the bunker. Very different, hardly any sand in the bunkers. Pity. But you must not pure play yes. For a week, the place is not boring.
