Course

Found the greens needed cutting and the need for a Marshall to speed up play.. We were a 2 ball with a buggie and it took 4 hrs 25 minutes to play 18 holes.

Tee mats not food

The course is in pretty good shape.,

Unfortunately the tee mats are awful.

You can’t get a tee in them as they are poor quality.

Even though you’ve put rubber tees in, they aren’t the correct height for everyone.

If you put in a decent quality mat, you’re course would be great.

Plesently surprised

Although the course was busy it took just over 3. 5 hrs to play 18 holes. The greens were true and quite quick for the time of the year. If you ignore all the pitch marks they are in good condition.. Overall course was in reasonable condition for time of year and amount of foot traffic

The course conditions were good even though we've had a lot of rain. Some of the paths were a bit muddy but the fairways and greens were good.

Awfull greens

Greens had been spiked and laced with sand. Not just a little bit of sand, it was like trying to putt in a sand pit. We wasn't warned before hand, we wasn't offered any sort of discount, if we had known how awful they were, we would have played somewhere else. When we told the staff, they just told us to send an email. Would of had more fun trying to putt on bournemouth beach

Potential

Greens good but suffering from birds digging!

First 9 good.

13/14 a scruffy corner. Could the part 3 be lengthened?

More bunkers needed all over to increase the challenge.

Loads of potential to be a more up market course.

Doing well .

Bit of investment needed.

The course has never been the best of conditions but okay. However, the bunkers were disgraceful. Absolutely, no excuse to be in that condition. If i were the green keeper I would be ashamed. No Excuse! Simple maintenance,
