Wonderful simply wonderful

Secure parking. Good clubhouse. Excellent facilities. Great layout. Challenging play. The greens are better than the Belfry. Just the goose poo is a little annoying but don’t let that put you off. Well worth a round here.

Best I’ve played in the Midlands (so far)

Condition of course compared to others was notable. The greens were best I’ve played on. The course has lots of character and look forward to playing again. The staff & club captains were extremely welcoming as well which I can honestly say made the whole experience even sweeter. Look forward are to playing again soon!
