Busy but Good

Played on a Saturday morning in a 3 ball. Course was busy with mainly 4 balls but there were no real hold ups and no backing up on tees. Despite very heavy overnight rain course was in good condition. Course marshal was visible during round and staff very friendly. A very enjoyable round and will be back.

Nice course, not too long off yellows, but good challenge for average golfer. Could do with more sand in bunkers.

Whole experience

Course was in general in good condition although the greens ran a bit on the slow side, however due to the current dry spell it did assist with holding when approaching them. There were a few areas on the course which were patchy, some due to ongoing works. The pace of play was reasonable but slowed up considerably towards the back end of the round and on busier days this could be a problem throughout. Off course facilities were good and staff friendly and provided a quick and efficient service.

Great Course

Lots of different hole types and all greens are immaculate. Only let down was waiting around to tee off due to a high volume of players.

Would 100% play the course again

So slow

Lovely selection of holes, well maintained. Took 6 hours for a 2 ball which is ridiculous. 4 ball members and novices refused to either speed up or let our group and many others play through, got to know other groups of golfers rather well as we we’re queuing on every tee for about 10 minutes. Staff member on buggy tried to improve situation but to no avail. I would play again as course was challenging with water and dog legs but completely avoid weekends.

Zzzzzz

Slowest game of golf we have ever played. I understand it was busy but both the groups in front of us were taking multiple tee-shots on almost every hole.

Good day!

Having seen previous reviews about very slow play and overcrowding I was a bit concerned when I booked. Thankfully they now have a starter/course marshal and there were no queues at the first tee. We were a 2 ball and behind another 2 ball who were quite slow but kindly let us play through after 4 holes and there were no more hold ups for the rest of the round. There was nobody immediately behind us either. Course was in excellent condition with true slick greens and fairways cut nicely short. Only shame was due to Covid the clubhouse facilities were understandably not available. Overall though, a very enjoyable round and very good value.
