Very well maintained golf course

Pleasure to play this course. Quite a long walk between some tee boxes. Compulsory use of fairway mats in winter would put me off playing at that time of year

Decent course, decent price

All round the course was in decent condition. However, staff didn’t advise that 18th green was closed, with a random flag placement in the middle of the fairway. Somewhat spoiled then end of a good round!

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
