Hidden Gem

Lovely course, with lovely views of the rolling hills surrounding. Reasonably flat, but not boring. A nice example of a shorter layout that keeps you thinking, not a bombers course. Nice greens, especially after such a dry summer, fantastic value, friendly staff.

It's well kept but not that interesting.

The staff are incredible and so friendly and also the toilets were immaculate. I just feel bad to say I didn't find the course all that interesting.

Worth a vidit

Highly recommend this course. We’ll layer out and the greens looked and were great.

Good clubhouse with friendly, welcoming staff. Inexpensive to eat and drink and they have the best caramel shortbread.

Beautiful Course

Great course for a cheap and cheerful round. The manual sprinklers left on the first 8 greens left the greens absolutely flooded and it was like playing on Winter Greens even though it was red hot and middle of the day. Back 10 holes which didn’t have sprinklers on were running pure and was in good condition so I have hope that the course will recover to this standard in the next few weeks but over watering in the middle of the day isn’t going to help anything.

Very scenic course and the fairways were well cut and rolled.

Will definitely play the course again, I just hope the greens aren’t soaked on the front 9 next time.

Absolutely amazing!

What a gem of a course. The course was in perfect condition all the way around. Fairways were perfect, rough was challenging but not overgrown and the greens were perfect

Staff at the clubhouse were amazing. With it being our first visit, we were shown toilet facilities, how the course was laid out and a few pointers for the first hole.

Also shown how to get to the first hole with our buggy. Staff could not have done more and we're very friendly.

Will be returning very soon, as beautiful course and great price

The course was a bit hard to follow, new flags are needed as a bit hard to see. Greens could be better but it was ok for a hit.
