Great Course
Fully recommend the course
Friendly people at the course
Welcoming Bar
Good greens
The greens were in a fairly good condition but some of the tee-off boxes require improvement.
What a gem !
Beautiful course, superbly maintained, welcoming staff. What’s not to like about this place. I have no hesitation in recommending this course it’s a gem.
A well keep parkland course
A first class welcome on arrival, very helpful on registering and as our two ball would have been following a 4 ball and a match play competition we were offered an earlier tee time to avoid being possible held up.
Playing with my wife it was a little quirky to find that the yellow tee was in front of the red tee and the SI was the same for both. Advantage to me.
A mostly flat course in excellent condition considering the drought with some nice features and open ditches. The greens were first class and would certainly return.
In arriving at the 19th we were given a very warm welcome by the local members while taking refreshments outside overlooking the course.
Thoroughly recommended.
We loved the course
The course was great but the pace of play in front of us was really slow
Great Value
The course is in great condition, and the greens are kept to a high standard. We found the members to have great golf etiquette and to be extremely friendly, which is very rare
A surprising course
Weather excellent. Sausage & egg cob and tea good. Sausage could have been better. Accommodating Joel in the pro shop very good for a young man.
Flatish course surface on fairways okay. A dry surface gave the ball a decent runout. Greens in very good condition. Better than the ones at the Belfry. Groundstaff out on course but moved back when players approach. Overall good experience for the £18.00 on a golfnow deal. Could do with a course Marshall going around to stop slow play by ladies who were taking photos on course and holding players up. Otherwise good enough for the price.
Thank you SMW. 21.05.25.
Good condition but flat uninteresting parkland course
The course was in good condition, however the tree-lined holes were uninteresting with a lot of back and forth, also not much movement in greens. There was a little water but not enough. Very friendly staff, however bar not open.
Interesting course
The course was quite wet and we had to play off a mat. The holes were interesting and varied. Some holes had the black and white aim posts (not in the correct place for a big hitter).
Would likely be lovely in spring/summer bit not great value when wet and playing off a mat.
Excellent considering the amount of rain
We played the course following a couple of days of really bad rain and although some parts were a bit wet it played well. The greens with very well kept which was a surprise considering the earlier reviews. There were a couple of temporary greens set up, a little annoying as they were virtually unplayable but these thing have to be done to maintain the course. On the good side, we were warned by the nice gentleman in the pro shop and it didn't really bother us too much just take a 1 putt inside 6 ft.
The tree on the side of each fairway make it a challenge with wayward tee offs being punished with difficult seconds shots back over or through a lot of tall trees.
The rough is kept low, which I prefer as this keep play faster than spending hours looking for a ball in deep rough.
Not too much water, just a couple of ponds of which my ball was magnetised to.
I will definitely return on a golf now discount.
Decent day but spoiled by bad golf etiquette and not letting you play through
The pace of play was terribly bad we were stuck behind a three ball and we were a two Ball..
Never a hint of the 3 elderly blokes letting us through despite waiting at every tee since the 7th hole for at least 1O minutes...They said on the 17th there was a four ball in front of them... They were right but they were 2 holes in front of them.
This was very disappointing indeed..
