“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!”

“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.”

“Francis, I just wanted to say thank you for the Mother’s Day lunch last Sunday. Firstly for squeezing us in at the last minute but also for how welcome you made my parents feel. They really enjoyed the Temple experience – you put them entirely at ease and also delivered an exceptional service. In fact, my mum has already informed me that we will be attending again next year!”

“Just to say how much we all enjoyed our lunch at Temple today. The food was very tasty, very well presented and won praise from everyone – very well done Liam. And the service was excellent, winning similar plaudits from us all – very well done Francis. I will have no hesitation in recommending Temple as a venue to anyone seeking to hold a similar party.”

“As Lynda and I said to you this morning we would like to put on record our gratitude and appreciation for how well we were looked after yesterday. As a member of Temple I am well aware of the professionalism and friendliness of the Temple team, but we were particularly touched by the enthusiasm of Liam and Francis during the planning of our lunch party. On the day the quality of the food, the attention to detail and the friendly help and support of both the kitchen and front of house teams could not have been bettered. All our 50 plus guests were full of compliments.Add to this the location and the great value on offer, we in Temple have something very special to enjoy. Thanks again to everyone.

Lynda and Paul Cazeaux – June 2018
“Hi Keith, Thanks again for yesterday. I forgot to say that I have trouble recalling when I have played out of a/ so many bunkers and b/ how consistent they were. In my view they were just the right depth, great quality of sand and a joy to be in which is very very rare. Congratulations to you all and please pass it on if appropriate – my comment is based on many years of experience as a PGA Professional Golfer and Club Manager.”
