Course in great condition especially considering the time of year.

Food and service first class.

Only downside was the waiting on each tee

Brilliant course

Played this course on my own and the staff and members were very helpful and friendly would not hesitate to play here again even at full price shame the signature 17th was on temporary tee but that's down to the time of year and not course condition as that was spot on

Disappointing to find that temporary greens were in play when the course is recognised as one that dries particularly well, and appeared to be unnecessary in the main?

The green gem in gorgeous surroundings

This course is always well looked after and can be played all year round.

Yes, there are the odd winter greens or hole set ups but that just protects the main greens for the better weather months! There are 2 par there's that are set up different to any other time of year but these are still tricky and the one temp green is as good as the others! The other is a different tee position but it's still a test over the water!

The only down side was that the greens had been treated with a blue/green treatment of some sort. This got all over your hands and clothes but has washed out.

It can get congested around the middle part of both 9's as the par 3's are close together, but soon spreads out again.
