“Thank you to Temple from everyone who felt the day had been good. The course was much enjoyed and everyone thought the greens were very impressive. The catering was excellent and the staff and service first class.”

” Hi Keith and team, Thank you to Team Temple for the fantastic golf day. As always the hospitality and golf were excellent and everyone had a great time.”
Al Whitaker (Organiser) Spinfield School Golf Day – June 2019
“Apart from the weather (a minor consideration despite the incessant rain which gradually increased towards the end of the round) this was a great day. The course was fantastic and the greens were in great condition despite the rain. The Secretary and all the staff were very accommodating to the point that coffee and biscuits were delivered to the changing room after the round – a welcome sight to 15 bedraggled golfers. The meal and setting was one of the best we have enjoyed and it was unanimously agreed to come again in the summer when good weather could be anticipated!”
Richard Jones – The London Stationers GS – June 2019
“Just to say how much the Temple Squash group enjoyed its recent visit. The golfers thought the course continues to improve and is now a delight to play. The food and service were much appreciated – to the extent that we wish to return next year!Thanks to everyone once again.”
Bob Eagle – September 2018
“We wanted to say thank you very much to you and the whole team at Temple for allowing us hold Grace’s christening reception at the Club on Saturday 8 February. The welcome everyone received was fantastic and all of the guests were amazed by the room and views. I would recommend hosting events at the Club to anyone. Also, please pass on our thanks to Liam for putting on some great food. And to Francis for all his help and being so accommodating. We really enjoyed the day.”

“Hi Keith, many thanks to the members for letting us play at Temple, especially on a Saturday. It is such a welcoming club and Francis and Patrick were as wonderful as ever!! Penny also turned up to make sure we were OK and was also very helpful. We all enjoyed playing and the course was in fab condition. You couldn’t do anything with the weather I know! Again, many thanks for the use of the course and the help provided by the staff on Saturday.”
Charlie Keenan (Berkshire Ladies 2nd Team Captain) – May 2018
“Thanks for everything yesterday – it could not have been better – and the day turned out to be most successful. I have received many murmurs of approval – both last evening and this morning by email – so, I suspect we shall be back again next year, if you’ll have us. I’ve thanked everyone at the Club individually – saw the bar staff last night and saw Liam this morning – the food was absolutely splendid and the service was great – got the balls from the Pro Shop and all was well. Thanks again for all – ciao.”
John Pagliero (Old Honitonians Golf Society) – September 2018
“We had a great evening recently when 25 of us sat down to a delicious dinner. With a choice of 4 dishes per course everyone was able to select their own dish which naturally meant a lot of preparation for each person as we all had different dishes!. It was all beautifully presented and very very tasty!! Well done Liam and team. We were very ably served and looked after all evening by Francis and his very attentive staff. We shall be back and I shall be grateful if you will convey our thanks and congratulations to all those concerned on the night.”
David de Bromhead (Dinner Organiser) – August 2018
“Please pass my thanks and congratulations to everyone who contributed to the Temple Children’s Xmas party on Saturday. My grandson Ethan had a whale of a time as did the rest of the children as far as I could see. No dramas, no tears, just a group of children (and adults) having a really good time. The format was just right allowing the kids to express themselves without getting carried away. Catering and service, as ever, very good.”
