TLC

I love the course but it needs more manicuring, especially the greens. The grass on the greens was much too long and it affected play.

Very nice parkland course.

Played this course in mixed weather. Beautiful surroundings. It’s a fair course. It rewards good shots but isn’t too punishing if you miss your fairway (unless you’re out of bounds on a couple of holes and find the airport - which is fair enough).

Staff friendly in the clubhouse.

Nice facilities.

Great track

Great course, overall it was slow play, we were a 2 ball, eventually the 4 ball in front let us through and we got a few how holes of a run but were held up for the back 9 and walked off on the 16th as there was too much of a delay. Lovely course, highly recommend playing it. Go with a 4 ball

2nd time playing and both times they say only 9 holes open even though the rest looked fine. Can't be that hard to update the app profile

Great course

Lovely, well layed out course in great condition. Can't really fault and anything only plane noise on a few holes is a little annoying. It's a bit expensive too at almost 40 euro

I was told I couldn't as a competition was on later .and when I asked do i get any money because we can only played 12 holes. he said no because we payed online sorry this is not good enough I would book somewhere else . very disappointed with this club because I was told it was a very good run club

Poor response

This is a review about golf now, booked a round, got to the course and only 12 holes open due to poor weather. Contacted golf now as my four ball were charged full price for the round. Not a happy experience. 😞

Golf now

I have no issue with this golf course other than the fact only 12 holes were playable due to weather, which is fine from a course management perspective.

I do have issue with golf now, as they still expect golfers to pay full price when you only play half of the course. Its very difficult to contact them to discuss options of a refund or a discount off my next booking due to the course being partly open.

Very annoyed golfer
