Winter golf

Considering the time of year and the recent weather it was great to be out, there was 18 temp greens on but definitely the right choice by the green keeping staff 👌

We got chance to speak to a couple of the staff looking after the course and they were friendly and helpful and making a great effort to protect the course.

Excellent

I arrived in the car park and immediately started chasing with a very friendly member. I was then welcomed in the club shop by name. The course was in excellent condition. My playing partner ended up in pretty much every bunker on the course which made my day. Lol. Good pint in the clubhouse after. All around a great day. We will definitely return.

A lovely afternoon

Hadn't played for a while, so this course was ideal in fantastic conditions. Very quiet, so could play at my own pace, and had a really enjoyable afternoon. All the staff and people I came across were very friendly and helpful. Looking forward to going back soon.

Lovely course

Greeted by nice friendly members in car park and had a chat. As I went in the golf shop I was welcomed with my name, and given a quick overview of the course an play for the day. The course was in really good condition for this time of the year, no wet or boggy areas and greens played fast and consistent. Excellent views of the coast and surrounding areas. Went into club house for a drink post round again welcomed by staff. Will definitely be back
