Just reading recent reviews, and saw that you were disappointed with the course?

The time you played was very challenging (weather wise) and your comments seem unfair.

I would like to invite you back to see the course as it is now.

Waited a long time to play this course and was so disappointed.

Having checked in with quite literally the rudest person I have ever come across in a pro shop I knew I was in for a bad day. The website is not updated so there is no current course information. I was told that it was carry only despite dozens of people with carts and the four ball behind us all pushing carts. I have a bad shoulder and struggle carrying but when I mentioned this I was just met with a bad tempered grunt by the young lady starter. The course only had 11 holes open and when I said I had paid full price, she just said that it was down to GolfNow and it was basically tough. She then looked like she was trying to resolve it on her phone for me but had in actual fact just gone back to playing on her telephone. After standing there for a good 4 - 5 minutes, I asked if I was done and she just grunted at me again. Not sure what she thought I was standing there for? Honestly it really isn’t the money, I was happy to pay full price but this was genuinely the most unwelcoming person I have ever encountered in my golf career.

I had always wanted to play here. My brother was a member in the 90’s and even had his wedding there. It used to be a proper, old fashioned, quality course but sadly it seems to be in severe decline. The club house is tired and the course didn’t seem in great shape. Perhaps I am being a little unfair and it might be great in summer but in winter £30 for 11 holes, all with temporary greens, very little signage showing which holes are open and the grumpiest staff I’ve ever met on a golf course don’t add up to a particularly good deal, especially on a course I was so excited to play.

Bit bland and featureless

Back nine are a lot better than the front which were all straight and featureless. Its is just a big squarish field surrounded by houses. No trees, but quite a few bunkers, which given the location I suppose you would expect. Club house looks like its falling down... Could do with some signs to direct you to the next tee on a few holes as well... On the whole we enjoyed the round and change of scene, but there are much nicer courses for the money.

Lovely course

Course in good condition and greens were quite fast.

Only fault we found as visitors were lack of markers on the fairways. Could have better directions to next tees

Apart from that we enjoyed our round
