"Everything was great, All the staff were very friendly and helpful, and the course was in great condition! Everybody had a great day out. Thanks for all your help!"

Henry, October 2022

"Dear Suzanne, This short letter is on behalf of those members of The Snake Golf Society who played in our outing at Bowood Golf Resort yesterday. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed playing on your long, challenging and beautifully maintained golf course with its wide fairways and fast greens. Overall, it was a wonderful day to play golf in great conditions. The bacon sandwiches and coffee got the day off to a good start. We all enjoyed drinks and the meal afterwards in the Brasserie. Please pass on our thanks to George and Becky for all they did to make the day the success it was. Please also pass on our thanks to Paul in the kitchen. Thank you, Suzanne, for helping with all the arrangements beforehand. It seems a long time ago that we first started planning the day and great to actually get to play your course again. Many thanks also to Joey and all the green staff who were involved in producing the course in great condition with excellent but tricky greens. In addition, Nicky and the team in the Pro Shop sorted out all our buggy requirements. As you may recall we play 4 fixtures a year spreading out from Sherborne up to a 50 mile radius and we last played your course 9 years ago. Thank you all again for all your help and assistance in giving The Snakes a memorable day’s golf under Corvid 19 rules. I conclude with our very best wishes for a successful season under the testing current restrictions, which hopefully will ease next month. We hope to be allowed to return to the Resort in the future."

"Ella, all your organisation and support was to good effect, in that all happened when scheduled and in the expected place. We had generous space and privacy throughout. The food was plentiful, prompt and of excellent quality, particularly the supper menu. The golf was well up to expectations (challenging for all handicaps), the course was in fine condition considering the amount of rain and the half-way house was quick and helpful. The changing rooms and showers were comfortable and comforting, well-appointed and stocked. All the staff were helpful, and the chef and kitchen staff were most tolerant (although we didn’t err too far!). It was a most pleasant experience to play at Bowood and enjoy your excellent hospitality, and all of our members made a point of mentioning this to me. So very many thanks to you particularly and all of the staff who looked after us in providing the most enjoyable day we’ve had for a long time."

"I would like to thank all of you at Bowood Golf Club who helped to make our visit to you on Friday such an excellent day. Members of the society were very complimentary on the condition of the course and the challenge it provided us. I would also like you to pass on my personal thanks to Roger, our starter for the day, who made us feel exceptionally welcome and provided us all with a great overview of the course. Thanks for your help in organising a superb day for us."
