Boggy Ruddington
Unfortunately the course struggled to cope with overnight rain and was boggy all the way round. Having checked the website before turning up it mentioned no buggies. We found that 6 holes were on really poor (amateurish) winter greens (badly placed on a couple) - The website late afternoon was updated to point this out - but we wouldn't have bothered had we known. Also, the 18th (Par 4) was having drainage work carried out and was set 150 yards forward making it a Par 3 distance effectively. The greens hadn't been cut for a while (I guess due to the conditions). A shame really as it looks a nice course - but with a Friend coming up from Essex to play had I known we would have booked elsewhere. Poor form that the Pro Shop didn't warn us.
Value for money
Played on a sunny Friday. Course in fine condition. Arrived early and had coffee from the kiosk on the patio. Enjoyed the round played at a reasonable pace. Course busy, but no waiting. Only hitch was that no hot food was available after 3pm. Great value for money with a ‘hot deal’.
Great layout, some pretty dramatic holes, with lots of nice elevation changes. Some narrow fairways, but also a few chances to open the shoulders up and smash one off the tee. The rough is very forgiving, probably the worst that could happen to an errant shot is find your line to the green blocked by a tree.
Greens had been treated and were very uneven, pace of play was dreadful due to a slow 4 balls poor on course etiquette.
Overall a stunning looking course in parts, would definitely play again.
Disappointed
Day off from work and looking forward to round at Ruddington
Unfortunately competition on and pace of play very very slow
Looked at website but no mention in diary so booked using Tee-times
Interesting layout
Nice course interesting layout..staff friendly and acceptable pace of play, would return.
