May golf

We played at the May half term and the course was in a great condition. Probably the best I've seen it. Although it was busy, but this was expected. The club house was good and outside seating area was well laid out.

Needs more regular maintenance

Heard good and bad things about this course in the past but wanted to play it anyway. I think the course layout is really good with some challenging holes, however, the fairways were basically rough as they hadn’t been trimmed for quite a few days. I think if it was cut more regularly it would be a really enjoyable course.

Average course plagued with slow play

The course itself is fine, meets your expectations in terms of condition and design for the price. However, play round this course is extremely slow and people seem to lack etiquette to let faster groups ahead. 4 hour round quickly becomes 5 hours when you’re waiting around on every hole.

Scammed

I turned up expecting a nice round but we get to the 11th hole and find out holes 12 to 16 are shut with no notice, after paying the full price for 18 holes

12 holes - full price?

Only 12 holes open. ‘Play as many times as you like’. Therefore queues of random people on every hole. Madness! But it was sunny.

Wasn’t told only 12 holes open but still had to pay the same price, should have just used the driving range instead.

Take care - often only limited holes open

Despite paying for a full round (having previously checked the website which said ‘fully open’), I arrived to be told that there was only 12 holes open. Very disappointed by this.

The course suffers badly with flooding at times &, from now on, I think that I’ll give this course a complete miss between November and April.

Pre new year

Excellent condition considering it was the end of December, some holes not available but very good fairways and greens on the ones that were open.
