Nice course, if you stay out of the rough!

Good value for money compared to other courses in the area. Nice friendly staff. The rough is very rough. If you end up in the rough you are 99% sure to lose your ball (but you’ll find a few others in there). Due to the price you do have a lot of youngsters playing who are slower than average. We had a few instances of youngsters skipping holes and randomly being on the greens we were playing on.

Excellent value

Played here many times, for the £15/18 you can often get on for is good value and a really good course to play when the weather is on your side. Only downside is a lot of tee times show available on golf now when booking but when you get there the place is rammed and you’re waiting around on tee boxes, played Monday / Friday and both were the same.

Not in good condition

Course was in very bad condition. Starting with tee boxes, they were bare poorly kept, fairways were like semi rough in places and then brown in others. Greens had big brown mud patches and differnt paced throughout.

Unfriendly staff

We were a group of 4 playing the pace in front of us. We had a staff member approach us shouting saying we are playing to slow.

Group ahead of us was constantly 200y in front of us. We proceeded to let group behind play though as they were playing quicker. 3 of the 4 were new to the to golf and wanted to try a full 18.

In the club house we were not notified that the club had competitions on. Which was the reason they tried to hurry us around the course.

Overall the course wasn’t bad but that 1 member of staff ruin the round

When then ended up finishing 5 mins after the group ahead of us.

Decent course

First time playing here and it was a decent course. Greens were in excellent condition and quite fast. Very undulating fairways on most holes which is a little annoying going up and down every 2 yards! A lot of the par 4s are quite the same and just straight but all in all it’s a decent course in the town centre and definitely worth the £15 I paid.

Perfect weather
Walked

Played with my son whilst visiting him, as he's at Uni in Newcastle.

The course is long a good challenge to lower handicaps yet very fair to higher handicaps.

The humps and hollows on many fairways make it interesting.

Staff and clubhouse good.

Weather was dry but ground very wet from recent rain but not any problem.

Worth a visit if in area.

Good value for money

I paid £10.99 to ply which feels like good value for money, albeit there’s plenty improvements they could make. The scorecard doesn’t have yardage or par for any hole, just score index, which wasn’t helpful. There’s also no yardage signage along the side of the fairways so hard to know how far from pin unless you’re in middle of fairway. Staff friendly and course flows nicely.
