What Our Guests Say
We take pride in serving our guests with the best experience. Read what they say.
We had a big birthday meal here. Very nice food and good value. Staff were great too. Well done
We have been to the sim X a couple of times this week, what a great place it is!! Really enjoyed it….the atmosphere and service is amazing and Dev & Team looked after us very well 👌
Wonderful place to eat. Very helpful and friendly staff, food well presented and beautifully cooked. Not had a bad meal all the times we have been coming. We have recommended it to our friends and they love it too.
Really good set up, Dev was really good and made the experience even better. Will definitely make it a regular thing
Used the Sim X for the first time today, the place is amazing, food was great and Dev the manager was brilliant. Will be using again.
New sim rooms at forest hill are very nice, Make sure to bring your own tees and balls (and plenty of them as they go flying). Room is big nice and clean with lots of other activities to do as well.
Visited the range 22.09.25 for the first time and when arrived was greeted by two staff members who were not very welcoming / friendly at all. Just say it’s this amount for the charges and which area / bay range. During the time there they had menus on the table and also do Indian food curry nights not sure if this is proper Indian and just taken from frozen food pre cooked and they just put it in a microwave? Also during the time one staff member came round to say your time is up and paid for an extra 3O minutes. One would have thought so they would do a discount during the week? Or school age discount ?
Food is expensive having browsing the menu charges. There is are no heaters I could see and one would think it must get cold during the winter months.

Fabulous food with friendly staff. 5* Sunday dinner. Lovely view over the golf course.
8 of us have been to the Kingfisher restaurant tonight to celebrate a birthday. We had a lovely meal, excellent friendly service. Will definitely be back and fully recommend it. Please support them they deserve to be successful.

Lovely food, huge pastas! Puddings are a must - great friendly service too. Would recommend!
We spent an enjoyable hour on the range there was ample parking. We parked near the Driving Range and created our own Disabled space.
Lovely Sunday lunch great friendly service sat outside with our 2 dogs. Given water for them as soon as we sat down always had lovely food and service happy to recommend
My wife julie and i just had the most wonderful Sunday roast
The beef was cooked to perfection and the service from Dev was excellent

We will be back for more

Came for a game of golf and a meal with friends, excellent restaurant service by Dev together with great quality of food. Golf course played really well in all areas. Great afternoon and evening!
Had a great round of golf followed by a gorgeous meal. Service from Dev was wonderful. Highly recommend
Been twice now for food and had different things each time. Everything was well presented and tasted amazing. Staff are really friendly and welcoming. We are definitely going back with other members of the family. 🍕🍛🥗☕️🥤🍷
Amazing customer service. Lovely food. Facilities look very good. Cant wait to go and try them out when open!
Tonight was curry night - excellent. £15.95 for curry and a pint. Lovely food. Good service. Thanks guys.
Fantastic food and service. We thought the lunch menu, particularly the baguettes were very reasonably priced too. Will definitely be back
Had a round of golf here in August. The course was in decent condition, considering we had over a month of very dry weather.
A great course with some challenging holes! Me and my mate played in the evening and the price was beyond fair. Tee boxes need some work, but the fairways and greens were in solid condition, very playable! Staff are very friendly especially Dev who met us after our round and gave us a complimentary drink for being fine guests!
Excellent evening of golf. The course is in really good condition considering the hot weather.
Staff very polite in the driving range and in the restaurant area.

Played golf this morning at forest hill ,a great course great running true, and stayed for Sunday dinner food really good
Golf course for the value for money was excellent. Really enjoyable and the lay out is great. Some really tricky holes.
The bar is great with excellent staff. And the sunday roast wow absolutely incredible. Will definitely come again thanks.

The course is starting to return to its previous glory post the irrigation challenges, the greens improve weekly, the owners take time to discuss with members and visitors so that they are aware of the improvements made and the continual investment they are making into both the golf course and the facilities on site the whole complex is continuing to develop to a high standard and the level of investment is clear for all to see as well as the high standards of finish, you can see this will be one of the best leisure facilities and golf complexs in the area.
The course itself is very well laid out and every whole is unique and different, the improvement post the challenges they've faced is phonemenol and the level of drive to improve the course and facilities is exceptional
Restaurants is really good and bar area has been modernised to exceptional standards with very friendly staff who makes you welcome

Im giving this review due to the high level of effort out in by the management at forest hill who have recently over came alot of bad luck with course maintenance equipment failing, course is now in an incredible condition, Sim suites look top notch, bar staff are really friendly and the food is great, only negative I can think of currently is that the marshalls can be pretty rude to members/visitors, hope this can change 😊
My wife and myself went here for a meal on Friday 8th August. We had previously called in for a drink about a week prior to this visit, and we very impressed with how the place looked and felt so hence the meal.
1. We decided to share a starter, as we don't usually go out intending on having three courses, which we didn't tonight, but failed on that score.
2. The mains were Seafood pasta and Sea bass. I particularly like pasta that isn't just Penne (nothing wrong with penne, but sometimes you just need something other). This was really very tasty and in my opinion very good value for money. The sea bass was (I'm told) also very tasty, although the skin could have been crispier.
3. The deserts were just the end to what had become a very enjoyable early evening out.
I conclusion; I can thoroughly recommend this place to anyone who may be considering places for an afternoon/evening meal. We will certainly be going back very soon.

Really excellent Sunday lunch. Great value for money. Really surprised by how good the quality of the whole meal was. Service was also excellent.
First time visit really enjoyed the breakfast food and plates hit and good value. Very friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. Returning Thursday for another brekkie.
Fantastic meal here! Dev was lovely and a fantastic waiter!! Thank you will definitely come back 🎊👍
What an amazing place this is, they have completely transformed the whole place, got something for everyone of all ages 👌🏼
We booked the venue for our annual FootGolf event and couldn’t be more pleased. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was excellent throughout the weekend.
A special thanks to the greens team, who worked closely with us to deliver superb playing conditions – a real credit to the course.
We’re already looking forward to returning.

We held a FootGolf event at Forest Hill over the weekend and can I thank all the staff for helping make it a very successful competition. Big thanks to Dev and the rest of the bar and kitchen staff for ensuring all competitors got feed in a short space of time and the food itself was excellent.
Attended for Sunday Lunch. Beautiful meal, attentive service and relaxing ambiance. Will definitely return (I need to try more of their home made desserts)
Fantastic service from the Restaurant, we sat outside on a summer's day, the Sunday lunch menu is brilliant value.
Great hot fresh food, and quick friendly service, worth a visit. The menu was simple
but nice, not to much choice which for me is a benefit.

STAY AWAY.
what a joke, course in terrible condition, my lawn at home is better than the greens here.
Played on a very hot Sunday morning, no cold drinks available!
It was an insult when a course Marshall asked me to tuck my shirt in!
I may as well have spent the £40 elsewhere.
At best a round is worth £12.50.
Will be speaking with England golf about my experience.

Perfect day for golf and a perfect setting. The course is playing well, particularly given the hot dry weather, and we followed our round with a refreshing drink and dinner. The food and service were excellent.
Amazing meal, such a lovely place with great food. Dev made us very welcome, thank you!
Clubhouse and staff are fantastic 9/10
Course layout is superb it's a very enjoyable track but unfortunately the tee boxes and greens are atrocious

Played the course today , absolutely awful worst course I’ve played this year . I agree with other reviews greens are terrible bunkers very little sand , below standard tee boxes . On past reviews I have noticed the same response from the club , but you said there was going to be a complete refurb of the course in a month but no sign of this . A superb clubhouse but I don’t play golf in the club house . £40 a round does not reflect the standard of the course 4 of us played the course . All was disappointed.
Course is in a very sad state across all areas. Played here a few times, and enjoyed so was looking forward to it, but now greens very poor and uneven (patchy grass untrue putts), tee boxes patchy grass and uneven, fairways some areas random uncut patches, full of weeds and bunkers which haven't been raked in a week so solid as a rock. Lots of focus on peripheral stuff - bridges, clubhouse etc, but taken their eye off the main attraction of a golf course.
Fantastic service ,food was to a very high standard. , will defiantly be coming back ,
A special mention to Dev who was friendly and attentive

Rather quiet (in the evening) but the food is excellent. The service is also excellent. I would highly recommend Forest Hill Golf Club for a meal or a drink.
After recent issues with irrigation, the course is once again looking really good again, lots of work being done on course well done to pete and his green keepers.Also lovely greetings from Olivia on registration desk very helpful and professional service.
Son paid for twilight round for Father’s Day and felt bad saying I didn’t want to play any further after 9 , to be honest wanted to leave after 3rd . Course needs a good cut and water . Greens have been scalped and left so fluffy and bald no way to read puts . Won’t be returning
Unfortunately the poor condition of the corse is common knowledge at the moment which is a shame but the range has always been excellent.
I visited the range a few weeks back and there was no tracking system as they were switching to Trackman.
Lots of blokes trying to install screens etc …but no tracking .
Went back a week later and it was all installed but the system was all over the place .200 yard shots tracking at 110 yards . 50 yard chips 95 yards and goodness me it was so slow … so not good .I gave it a few weeks thinking it’s just needs to be set up correctly. Nipped down on Sunday and I’m afraid it’s still the same .
Honestly think they would be better off just removing it if this is as good as it gets.

Myself and a friend played this course yesterday (10/06/2025) to assess it with regards joining it as members. It has great potential, is set in some lovely landscape (hence the two stars) and could be a gem if they get their greens sorted out. However, what really spoilt our visit was the aggressive, unfriendly and officious 'Marshal' dressed in high-viz who was patrolling the 9th/18th greens on a buggy . He approached us and proceeded to inspect our golf attire closely, telling me that my socks were the wrong colour (black rather than white) and that my shirt wasn't tucked in enough to my shorts. He then departed on his buggy with the comment that he'd let us off this time, but that we'd be thrown off the course next time - I've never experienced anything like it in many years of golf! Given that I couldn't find anything on the club's web site that mentions dress code, and that his aggressive manner was really unpleasant, I won't be returning to Forest Hills.
I would not have ever come here to eat .. Golf is a detestable waste of time .. I would have been a HUGE mistake. The meals were fabulous, and the service is brilliant. We will be back and would recommend you to try it as a reasonable alternative to a trip into town .. much nicer views.
Cannot fault the range. Good pricing and availability. Hawk eye. Great time regularly here
Lovely foods & fab friendly service. Highly recommended. Will come again …
The course is in pretty poor condition overall. Tee boxes are long grass and not very level. Bunkers sand is solid and the greens are very poor overall. Not worth the green fee.
Club house, staff and food are pretty good though. Few decent beers on tap.

Been going to this range for a few years now. Had no issues with it, staff are always friendly, perfect facility to practice at during the winter months. Even the food is decent.
However a few months back they decided to "upgrade" the range tracking system. They had been using top tracer, which was working well and had lots of fun games. They now have trackman tech installed on all the bays, and it must go down as the worst business decision of all time.
All the ranges are off by some way. The system lags and is slow, and crashes a couple of times every visit.
The range is no where near as busy as it was so they must be feeling now as it's hitting their pockets. It's a shame but unless they sort it out I can't see the place being open in 12 months.

2 years ago, this was a great course and club for the price it used to be. It was never top tier, but was affordable. That has changed so much for the worse now. The value is appalling for what members and guests are expected to pay. Play more golf costs nearly doubled the other month without any improvements prior or since. The money clearly isn't invested into the course, but other ventures instead. It is insulting that members are asked to supply funding for critical repairs and maintenance of the course. Part of me is sad to have now left, but am pleased to be in a club that actually values its members and takes pride in its conditions for the same price. I feel sorry for the staff and club committee trying to do well within their power.
Awful golf course. They have spent all the money on the conference room and neglected the course. All of the greens are just mud No grass or very little. Ten years ago this was a great place for golf. Yesterday I vowed never to go back. Shocking
17th May 2025 - no grass on the greens!! Wish I'd seen the review directly before mine - absolutely shocking greens. Dry as a bone. Unreadable. Really took the enjoyment out of the day. £40 for that is a joke.
Course is actually quite good - a very long par 3 and lots of par 5s. Some water in play (extremely gross, brown and stagnant) though beware - the range only opens at 10am.
Enjoy the brick in the bunker as well.

Played here today, very disappointed! Keep your £40!!! In your pocket go to skegness and play on there sand!!! not Forest Hills it's cheaper and gets watered twice a day by the tide.
A friend is looking to join a club near Leicester so we played this course yesterday 15/5/25. Greens and tees are in awful condition and the greens are really unplayable. Balls bounce all over and hardly any grass as can be seen in the photos. Bunkers were solid or very little sand and some had so much weed in I was glad not to be in them. £35 visitors fee wasted. On the 18th hole there must have been at least 100 driving range balls scattered along the right hand side of the fairway. Made finding my friends ball that was in the right hand light rough impossible. I hit a corker second shot from 255yards to the green area. When I got to the green there were about 30 balls from the driving range surrounding the green. It was like playing a fair ground game trying to find my ball. Eventually discovered it in the front right bunker with 6 driving range balls. Summary is in my opinion this course is not playable. Don’t waste your money.
Excellent Sunday lunch - the best we’ve had in a long time! Highly recommend - run by a
lovely friendly team! Nice views out from the restaurant

Played this course today. We were looking forward to it as it had good reviews. What a disappointment!!! Other than the fairways, it doesn't look like the course had been taken care of. The tee boxes were rough and no grass. The greens were the worst I've ever seen. I don't think they have ever seen water!!! I wouldn't play again even if it was free.
Came here breakfast yesterday and returned for lunch today. Food and service fabulous both time and very reasonable in the prices. Worth a visit 👍
Really enjoyed my dinner tonight at Forest Hill and lovely round of golf I thoroughly enjoyed my bag and sweet potato chips highly recommended thanks team for smashing it
Since new management the food has been superb. Have dined on several occasions now. I can recommend the chicken on mash potato, the lasagne, the chicken tikka, etc.. The service led by Dev is so professional. Definitely worth a visit.
Delicious food and friendly staff. Dave was extremely helpful in all our requests. Very clean facilities and toilets.
Dev and the chef working here service and food was very amazing and the service was excellent

Had an hour in the driving range which was reasonably priced then went over to the restaurant and had a fabulous meal. 4 of us sampled lots of different dishes and all were great, fab presentation too. Dev the manager was on hand all the time, very attentive. Will visit again.
Nyc experience well done new managment come they are very good the food and the coffee is best and the manager , Dev was very friendly and very polite and he was doing his job very well all staff was nyc they all take care of my family and me Apprecite for looking after us 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
6 of us enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch today, the food and service was great, great value for money, fresh tasty food.
Dev is a good bloke… pours a decent Guinness. One of his great skills which became apparent, was to change a barrel of Guinness within 7 Minutes and 14 Seconds!. The only downfall is the lack of bar stools.
In summery, a great pint of Guinness.

I came for lunch with a party of friends and have to say the food was hot and well presented. The wild Mushroom soup and Tikka Masala was superb and very tasty. A pity I didn’t have room for dessert. A really lovely experience and one I will be repeating in the near future.
Well done to the servers Dev and Kerry for being both professional and friendly.

Fantastic place to enjoy your meal, great ambience, friendly staff, rated as 5 🌟 so do the place look like and the food was great. Will visit again with friends.
Five of us visited today for mothers day, from the minute that we walked in the door to the moment that we left everything was perfect. Brilliant food, brilliant staff and fantastic service in spotless surroundings. Excellent value for money, we will certainly be back soon. Thank you to Dev and all the team.
10/10 for this venue.
We have recently taken a party of 18 for Sunday lunch.
The food was outstanding, the environment beautiful and the whole staff team were so attentive. They couldn’t do enough for us and made the whole experience amazing! Well done to the team and see you all again very soon.

One of the best driving ranges around- completely destroyed with the decision to change from TopTracer to Trackman, yes nice big screens, but less options on the system. Less virtual courses, VERY slow. Lagging, and not accurate. Example, when hitting the 41 yard flags, it flagged up as 22yards. Completely let down.
Me and my father love this golf course I often meet my father here great staff and people
This place is amazing we had the most delicious Sunday Roast here which was cooked to perfection and was a treat. The service was excellent - special shout out to our service manager Dev Patel he was courteous, professional and very polite.
Our food came pipping hot fresh from the kitchen and you could really tell that that quality of the produce was locally sourced and fresh. I had the chicken and belly pork which was moist and literally melted in your mouth. We ordered extra cauliflower and cheese on the side which added to the already mountain of sides you get with the roast perfectly. Best Sunday Roast in Leicestershire hands down!
Can’t wait for next Sunday!!

I'm a member here. I joined firstly because I started coming to the range. Ended up getting a lesson and then played the coursea couple of times. The course, at times, esp off seasons, could be in better condition but this summer it has honestly been amazing. I really enjoy it. It's challenging but not so much you regret turning up when you're not having a good day. The back 9 is really fun.
The food in the bar isn't great. Never tried the restaurant? Seating area round the back next to 9/18 holes is great place to relax before or after a round.

The most beautiful spacious restaurant with incredible views of the golf course. The staff were amazing, so welcoming. The food was fabulous especially the cauliflower cheese with mustard seeds. We will very much be back again. Thank you.
The new driving range is very good. Much nicer than before with lots of space for groups behind each bay. The end bays 16-19 do not have Toptracer, however the earlier numbered bays do. What makes up for it though is that these later bays have additional seating, so great to bring families along.
The Diamond suite looks nice, being enclosed, so good for those who want some privacy from the masses, while the Platinum is the top level offering, with putting and a sofa.
Would be nice if all bays had Toptracer, and the range seems shorter than it used to be, however the facility itself is now top notch and a couple of steps above most driving range 'sheds'.

Been playing here for about a year now and the transformation from last year is outstanding. The course is beautiful now.
The new management really have put the work in to make it a great place to play.
