Very nice course

Got to give this course 5*, the course is very well maintained to a very high standard, no matter when you play, summer or winter the fairways and greens are always in top condition. The last few occasions I've played here, pace of play has never been a problem as I've never been held up for anyone playing slow.

The only downside is it's a 9 hole course / 18, so paying £20 to play 18 holes of the same green plus the tee box's are close together so it really don't Warrent it being 18 holes for the price, I would say around £12 / £15 would be more reasonable priced as you play the same greens going out has to coming in and that's the only downside to such a well maintained course which again he kept to a very high standard.

Nice round off golf

Nice golf course, fairways in good condition but greens were a little bobbly. On a whole a really nice course. Weather was lovely and had a really enjoyable round. Some really nice holes with some difficulty, will definitely be coming back.

Clean course.

The mats are the softest to play off, you don't shock your shoulders. Every hole is different. Try reading greens 4 & 9? They are tricky. There's always a course guy litter picking, hedge trimming, removing debris off the course. They are manicuring the fairways and greens constantly, but they don't interfere with play.

Winter Golf at its best

Hit and miss at most courses during winter months, but Blackwood course in nice condition and greens in great condition and although recently spiked played really well.

Course has one or two slope’s but probably why it drains so well.

A must visit for a few hours of winter golf.

Great Little Course

Lovely little 9 hole course and the greens were amazing. If any slight criticism there was no pro shop and no one to check in with, no par 5’s and a lot of holes cross over each other.

Nice 9 hole course

Layout is bizarre as you play the same holes over and over .

The guy who was running it was really pleasant and helped us out at the beginning but some of the locals were pretty stuck up and telling us how to repair divets (although we’re experienced players)

Overall nice few hours out and about

But will not be returning

It’s a nine hole course. If you okay 18 holes you play the same 9 but from different tee positions.

Great little location and top class greens!!

I’ve lived locally for years but only just tried out this course. Really well presented and the greens were excellent.

It’s a tough start with a few 450 yard par 4s but there is plenty of character throughout and a couple of really gorgeous looking holes.

. There are separate tee positions for the back 9. This will now be my go to course. Little gem!!

Nice little course

Good for the money, but only 9 holes with different tees on back nine leads to interrupted play on times. Staff and patrons very pleasant and will attend again.
