Worth a visit

Glad to have played it once. Fairways were suffering a bit from recent dry weather but the greens were immaculate. Staff and locals and the treasurer, John, all very welcoming.. I would imagine that if only members are playing it would be ok as everybody would know what to do but to me it looked far too dangerous with lots of shared fairways and confusion as to who should play next, a road crossing the middle of the course with motorists and pedestrians oblivious of golfers about to play and a footpath at the side of a fairway where walkers are in serious danger of a not too wayward drive. Spending £30k on a new green to make the 7th a short hole would be a good start to make the course safer.

Heart attack Hill !!

Lovely course--always good---fairways burnt--greens quick --perfect ---------but the 6th hole up that hill just about killed me- I think i was close to a heart attack---lucky i had my wife with me & calmed me down.

Next time--BUGGY .

I recovered back at the clubhouse with a pint----decided to sell my clubs & stay on the drink---goodbye golf xx

Great value little gem

Beautifully located 9 hole links course with very welcoming staff in the clubhouse, and a challenging little course with some spectacular views out to sea and over the course. We found this a prefect stop off and resting point on a long journey to Scotland for our golfing break. Lovely food and drink too, to complete a memorable visit! Highly recommended!

Love this course

Great 9 holer, which you just play twice, great setting, greens excellent, preferred lies but was fine and good fairways, typical links. Course very quiet and some members let us off before them, just for speed of play. Which was appreciated

Great views over the coastline, recommend everyone play this little gem.

Didn’t go into clubhouse, but have done before and it’s very nice. Suppose to be good food, but haven’t tried it.

Highly recommended

This was my first time playing this course, I got it on a "hot deal" for £12.99 and played it with a friend from Leeds. We were very impressed with the upkeep of the course considering how cheap it was, and the friend I played with said the same course in Leeds would cost £30-40 for a round. There are certainly a few challenging holes which are deceiving but this just added to the course for us. Once you get onto the 5th Hole and beyond you can see some absolutely beautiful views. The club house is the only thing that let it down - it's basically a pavilion, but as far as I'm aware they are currently building a new modernised one further along the course so this will not be an issue soon!

Best course I have ever played

I absolutely love this course. Immaculately kept, with the best views I have seen, right next to a beautiful beach. Some great holes, especially 5 and 6. 1 a tricky one up a big hill, the 6th going back down. The views from the top are brilliant, only downside is walkers everywhere who pay no attention and walk on bits they shouldn’t. But overall so so good. Narrow testing fairways where accuracy is key.

Lovely course

Played the course twice to complete 18 holes and had a great day. I’m a high handicapper and found the course to be a good challenge with quite narrow fairways but a more accurate golfer may not find that! Greens were great, very true pace and some good breaks to try to read. Loved the challenge of the 6th hole and the 7th was wonderful - both the view and the hole. Course was pretty quite as played early so no issues with pace and fellow golfers were friendly. Beautiful location and course was in good condition despite some impacts from rabbits. Enjoyed a toastie and some great chips from the clubhouse afterwards too. Would recommended.
