Straight shots required

Very tight tee shots on most holes, no room for left or right. Nice greens mostly but last couple holes looked like birds had just been on and been picking at it. Overall enjoyed it but don’t think will be back as playing partners lost too many balls haha

Poor

The course has great potential. However very disappointed with the very worn and uneven tee boxes, the greens are poor and unevenly cut. A bit of a let down as the clubs website claims to be one of the best course in the North East!

Wet golf

Fairways were extremely wet and greens suffering from fumarate.

Reasonble layout and probably more enjoyable in dry conditions

Walked off after 7 hole

Very slow play from 1 ball in front. I was also a 1 ball and asked to play through and was told very abruptly no. I've played here numerous times and never experienced this before. Guy in front had all the toys and whistles. Every shot he was checking phone and watch. Kept relining his shots and after taking it would stand for 30 seconds just swinging club. No play in front either. After I asked on 5th he went even slower in play. So on 8th tee after waiting about 10 mins i walked off. Waste of £20. Loads signs up saying let faster player play through but must have been so unlucky to have been behind a total bell end. Only day off I've had in 12 says and wanted to enjoy a round before Xmas. Other than that staff were great. Course in good nick for time of year. Just the 1 member who is a toss pot

Disappointed

We arrived after paying £30 each to find the entire course on temporary greens which were awful.

. I thought at least we would receive a phone call to advise us of this so we could book elsewhere.

Due to school pick up times we had no option but to play.

Amazing!

All round an amazing course! First time visiting as I am not local and will definitely be making a trip back here again. Lovely looking course with immaculate greens. Different challenges all over and relatively flat so makes it even more pleasurable. People extremely friendly with great facilities.

Slow play

Played here a few times and never been an issue but round took over 4.5hrs for a 3 ball today. Also at the end of the round there were 8 or 9 people standing making noise just a few yards from the final green following the end of a kids comp ( not kids fault). Parents apologise but a committee member wouldn’t and kept saying it was acceptable ... but bizarre. Greens were good though as a positive. Would still play here again but that committee member was a joke and doesn’t represent what is a decent set up
