Poor course
When I arrived at the club house the man behind the counter was rude and even asked my age which I don’t think matters when it comes to playing a round of golf haha, Also the course was a shambles greens had more mud than turf and were rock hard.
Standard of the greens.
The course was in a very good condition, except the greens, which had little if any grass on them on most of the holes.

Decent value for money for a cheap knock
Decent course layout, some nice holes, but tee boxes and greens in poor condition. Can't complain for £15 a round at the weekend though. Good value for money
Didn’t even play!
Booked this course. Turned up and nowhere to park. they had decided to double book our tee time and couldn’t accommodate us at any other time as they where fully booked. Staff where unhelpful and said there’s nothing they can do. After travelling early to get here we where left with nowhere to play. Wouldn’t recommend playing here.
Good value course
The first time I played this was in Winter and gave up half way as it was so boggy and wellingtons would have been helpful. So was really pleased at the quality of the fairways when I returned last week. A course map on the score cards or arrows pointing to the next tee would be helpful as the layout is not obvious. There is a good variety of holes but big hitters will enjoy this long course. The greens need some attention but were playable. For £25 for 2 players you cant complain- excellent value.
Sound
Good course for that price. Bit slow on the back nine because of a few groups of seniors but sound for a Tuesday round.
Good course for the proce
Course in good condition, fairly slow pace of play behind some questionable golfers. A few locals wandering round with dogs away from the rights of way. Enjoyable round in the sun.
5☆
The course was brilliant from tee to green. The staff where very helpful, we would highly recommend
It's Okay for the price!
Played here for first time today. Price was really good for a two ball think it worked out £12 each so can't complain with that for a full 18 holer.
First impressions were good until getting half way down first hole. Slightly confused at first to see so many people walking through holes with golf ball catchers and the volume of dog walkers, which I thought was a bit inconsiderate but hey ho!
The course itself is in really good nick. Can tell it's looked after from the tee off box to the fair way to the green. Most holes are tight challenging your accuracy and the greens ran true and were in good condition. Each hole presented a fair challenge to whatever standard of golf you play. Just needs to be directed better from hole to hole was a one of the flaws. And the biggest being so many randomers walking through holes whilst playing. I have never experienced seeing people trying to find lost balls whilst it's the middle of the day and so many golfers still out and about. Should that be allowed? Haha wouldn't mind so much if it were kids but adults? come on people! Get a life!
Brilliant value
Course was in great condition and for £10 a round it was brilliant value for money. Well worth a visit. Will be back again
Great Value.
Well worth £10. Well looked after course. Little wet in places on the fairways as expected for this time of year but greens were excellent. Fairways nice and wide and very flat. Perfect for a newbie.
Only negative is there’s lots of dog walkers.
I’ll definitely make this a regular visit.
Excellent value for money
£10 to play the course. The fairways were boggy and soft but that’s due to the amount of rain we have had. Balls were plugging but apart from that the course was great. Could do with more signs up pointing in the right direction.
