Mind the sheep

Wonderful quirky golf course. Very friendly staff talked me through the course before starting. Some interesting holes especially on the back 9. Very enjoyable but a challenge in the windy conditions. Main thing is to mind the sheep that wander freely round the course!

Holywell Great value

Enjoyed the course when I played, good layout with many interesting holes. I found the small greens very firm and difficult to hold due to the dry weather, the fairways were in good order and would reccomend anyone to play and a very fair price.

Pleasant afternoon

Lovely day at this friendly course. Good condition and good test. A shame that it was painfully slow. As a single following two golfers in a buggy it was disappointing to be waiting so much. Pro very friendly and lovely in the club house behind the bar.

Disappointed

Looking forward to playing a new course , and first impression was , where have I come to !!

Roads through the course, sheep everywhere, little practice areas and a poor putting practice area.

The staff in the shop , seemed uninterested, assume because we had booked a hot deal , and he mentioned numerous times as, the club didn’t get financial gain from that.

On a positive, the members I spoke to , were very friendly and accommodating with their knowledge of the course .

Great Course, Great Conditions.

Didn’t think with British weather I’d get in a round in November but the course was in excellent condition, greens were perfect. Would highly recommend.

Amazing course

Playing quite a lot of golf this summer around different courses were we can. We came across this little gem. Links style layout, challenging fairways and tricky greens.

Whilst I shot my worse score of the year (my fault rather then the course) both myself and my friend came off the course both saying how good it was.

Highly recommended.

Beautiful Inland Heathland Course

Quirky with sheep and busy roads, sometimes difficult to find next hole but a real adventure.
