Excellent course- well kept.

Had a very enjoyable round, third time around this course so getting to know where to be on each hole for my approach to the green. Course was in good condition and the staff very friendly. Only marked down slightly due to lack of signs in certain holes so not clear where to find the next tee, but this is a minor issue. Would recommend, good value booking through Golf Now App.

Great course

Great course but the greens at this time had been treated so not so good. This course is very challenging to all that will play but very well maintained. I will have to return and play it again.

Disappointingly Slow

Firstly let me say one on the best courses we have played no complaints whatsoever regarding layout or condition of course. However on this occasion play was so slow a four ball seemed to take for ever in front of the two ball we were stuck behind until they eventually let us play through on the 17th we were waiting on almost every tee and fairway. Nice gent playing alone joined us for a couple holes before pushing on and I guess forcing his way through. He indicated booking time via golf now served no purpose as members could just jump on when they wanted and on reflection this was impression I formed when reporting to shop to book in. Disappointed if this is case when parting with £70 while I fully appreciate member privileges then tee times shouldn’t be available to book via online platform

A nice course, let down by the members.

I’ve played this course twice in two weeks.

First time at the course was the slowest game of golf I think I’ve ever had. But we waited patiently and made our way round without issue, as did the players behind us.

Fast forward to this weekend and what a difference, much quieter day and we were a three and were not hanging around, however a foursome (two male and two female members) arrived behind us on the fifth hole and from then on applied constant pressure to us.

Deliberately laying up close to the greens when we were on them several times. To be clear this is dangerous, one thinned shot and who knows the consequences. Then on the 11th, the two men drove their buggy through the rough onto our fairway to apply more pressure and watch us play our second shots and stated that they were a foresome hence why they were so fast.

This behaviour was appalling, we eventually let them through on the thirteenth hole and while the ladies were pleasant, the men were very rude.

I won’t be going back here, I suggest anyone reading this takes their money elsewhere.
