First Time Playing

Nice course but fairways need some serious attention, lots of the fairways were almost as long as the rough and it took a long time to find multiple fairway balls, put a bit of a downer on an otherwise quite nice course, also lots of bunkers filled with water despite it not having rained for a while

Great value

Had a lovely breakfast which, including the golf was £24. Sam, Maxine and all the staff were very friendly and gave great service. Good choice of drinks on offer with a nice cold draft pint afterwards going down well.

The course is not as immaculate as some others but there are plenty of interesting holes with the tees and greens in good condition.

Needs more attention

This course is a good challenge but has now started to become unloved or out of cash.

Tees not cut ( it was like teeing off from the rough ).

Hardly any sand in the bunkers and just generally the course looks scruffy. Shame as in previous years it’s been a nicely maintained course.

Good course

First time playing this course. Was a Sunday afternoon and was dead quiet. Layout is good and the course is very challenging with all the water. Especially for a high handicapper like myself. Would definitely go back to redeem myself and find some of my balls ha

Below par greens

Greens were firm with lumps and bobbles, difficult to putt on and couldn’t hold a wedge on the greens, patchy and long

Perfect weather
Walked

Wet. Wet. Wet!!

I booked in advance to take my grandson on a “proper” course. I asked at 7am how the course was playing as there had been rain recently. I was assured the course drainage was good and it was playing well. It hadn’t rained overnight so we set off expecting a nice round. Very disappointed to find the course was very wet- under water in places- bunkers like ponds.

My first drive was arrow straight (unusual) and plugged wasn’t close to describing the lie. If we were playing ‘pick and place’ we needed trowels to retrieve our balls after most tee shots. Be honest with your customers and we would have postponed. Now we’re unlikely to return.

Compliments to the Greenkeeper

I was critical of the greens here last summer when they were underwatered but playing here this week I was very impressed with their condition, considering the time of year and the rainfall. Hopefully in the spring the bunkers can receive some attention.

Fantastic course, slow play again...

Second time I've played here. Been a really wet week so trolleys on paths etc..but despite that wonderful condition and really well looked after. The staff are fantastic all around the site. Probably the best course in the area.

However.

On both occasions I've played there we've been stuck behind lady members going incredibly slow. I have no issue with people learning, we've all been there, and it's great to see new people on the course, but let better players through. Every single hole was on the tee box and they'd be barely 50 yards down the fairway hacking away at it. Happened last time I played here too. There is a course marshall so no idea why he wasn't telling them to get over. It's courtesy, even if you are a member.

Will definitely play again as it's amazing venue.
