I Recommend This Course
Good course in the rain
The pace of play on the Friday we went was very good until the last two holes, then a three ball refused to let anyone play through even though they were playing slow. The very heavy rain meant most, if not all, of the greens were very water logged. Puddles in the greens. Sometimes unputtable. But the layout of the course is fantastic. Good for beginners and high handicappers.

Shame too many 3 balls in front and behind! slow pace
Normally a good round can be played but there was too many 3 balls in front and behind playing which too ages to wait and you tend to lose interest after a while due to waiting and players of mixed abilities in the groups.
We all need to learn but a very slow pace this day.

Wensum Valley
This was the first time i have had the chance to play this course and the layout was excellent. There are some challenging holes supported by a lot of challenging pin positions. My only disappointment was that there was an extremely slow 4-ball in front of the 2-ball that was in front of me and this created a very slow round.
