Greens

Unfortunately we played to 15 greens which were being treated. We were not aware of this and feel that we should have been offered a reduced price in these circumstances as it spoiled a good experience.

Hidden Gem

Played the course on a sunny day.

Not long by modern standard but still challenging for all levels.

Every hole looks interesting, with superb greens. Friendly staff.

A must if you're around the area.

Restrictions

Can't fault it, with one niggle.

We were not allowed to remove the flagsticks while putting, despite our visit being after the change in guidance from central government and England golf. Seems a bit strange that the "back to normal" play was not adopted here.

Didn't detract from an otherwise enjoyable day.

A good test of accuracy

Long and short holes need you to keep your ball in play, avoiding the trees and particularly the river on 3,4 and 5. The greens are also a good test but are consistent and fair.
