In great condition

Only thing ruined it was the pace of play. Finally got rid of a extremely slow three ball as they only played the front nine, but by the 11th we had to wait on average 5-10 mins on every tee box. But nice course

Course in great condition

The course was playing superb. Greens in great condition and playing quick with challenging pin positions.

Only downside was pace of play, minimum of 6 groups backed up from the 5th hole and having to wait at each tee due to 1 very slow group!

Try it!

A much overlooked course because of its municipal status but one that deserves a chance. Course is almost always in great condition and the greens albeit can be slow are well cared for all year round. This course I feel would hold its own against most of its private owned competitors.

Don't be put of, give it a go I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Friendly

When I showed up everyone was friendly, even some members with Shirts on showed their face to just be nice!!

For the course, honest for the end of winter you could ask for Better signage to temporary tee boxes!

Couldn’t ask for better green keeping at that time of year!

All and all what a fun, relaxing yet challenging course to play it had everything, views and challenges to improve the golf game without disheartening the beginners!

Thank you for the memories… Rab

Some issues

Teeing off of winter mats is fine but not when every single mat has your feet either above or below the ball. If your going to have people using slanty winter mats to tee off and the fairways are like slurry then maybe don’t charge people full price for a round?

Great value. Challenging course.

We’ve all played some truly horrendous council courses especially in England. This isn’t one of them. It’s in great condition. Well looked after and we’ll signposted. Some oh the walks between holes would be very confusing with out the signs. The course itself isn’t long but the difficulty comes from the narrowing fairways. Tricky pins and some very undulating fast greens. (I had one 25ft putt that I aimed 10ft left of the hole and still missed it on the low side!!!) my putting is ghastly to be fair. The members I chatted to were friendly and the staff were sound. I had a great day and will return definitely. Thank you to all at the course for a great day.
