Golf a winner

After booking my round and ticking the box , when I arrived and found out I needed winter wheels for my trolley , which was my fault , the pro was really good and allowed us to play , as the course was in really good condition , the sun was out no wind so playing conditions we're excellent, overall had a great day and will be back , with the correct wheels .

Dawson

I haven't played this course for a few years but was really impressed with the condition of the course. Greens were not rapid but you got a true roll & could stop the ball chipping in. Great value for money when others are trying to take your eyes out well worth a visit & I will be returning.

Good Value for Money

Played the Dawson. It was in good condition except for some of the tee boxes that were effectively dry earth without grass. Fairways and greens were excellent. Greenkeeping staff a little inconsiderate talking on phones and doing jobs around the green when putting but presume that is a one off.

To congested

There was people teeing off behind us hit my friend on the back and then ran off course. Before this happened we had 4 later tee offs right up our back ends just walking through teeing off before us not even asking if they could play through. Took us 3.5 hours to do 9 holes with all the people on this course aye would never recommend this to anyone booking on golf now as tee off time does not count to the members on this course obviously

Great condition

Had the pleasure of playing today in the mining engineers competition.

Have played early in season when the greens were just back on from the winter.

Today the course was immaculately turned out with easy defined fairways.

The green were starting to bloo. But were excellent a d true.

Ive played a few courses recently and these were up with the best.

Great golf club

Fabulous golf courses with two 18 holes in great condition. There's also an excellent driving range with tracers on all bays with a huge chipping and bunker practise area.

Modern clubhouse with food and drink at affordable prices.

Fabulous

Played a few courses while up here on holiday for Easter, this was the best we played. All the courses we played were struggling for growth, but you can see this place was ready to burst into life. A great layout and unbelievable views. Reminded us of Celtic Manor 2010 course. Can’t wait to return and play the other course in the summer.

Great experience-getting better every week

Played last week, and whilst the greens had just been tined, we had a great day. Further improvement today on our 36 hole day out , and were rolling very nicely. Looking forward to returning in two weeks time, and probably picking up a membership with the guys we play with.

Course and greens in serious need of TLC

I've played here quite a few times in the past as my mate lives in the area. From a distance the course looks great and it does have a good layout. The course and the greens weren't in great condition. The faurways were a bit patchy and your ball nearly always seemed to stop on a patched a dried earth. It looked like the greens had been hollowtined but they weren't in great condition. Somewhere worse than others but it wasn't a great putting experience. Hopefully will improve with the weather. Disappointed this time out.
