Lovely sea views

Interesting course - not hilly, no water hazards and not long with lovely sea views. An enjoyable round but the back nine spoilt by very slow play in front.

Quirky course

Friendly welcome. Bit confusing scorecard as not played in order. Well kept course, quite short but with some tricky par 3s. Some slow players ahead of us which can happen anywhere I guess. Enjoyable afternoon.

Aerated greens

The course is in good condition and holds up better than most into winter but we had to contend with aerated long grass greens which is always tricky. I understand it’s necessary though.

Enjoyable day

Nice to play a course we’ve not played before. Nice and flat, no real hills. Shame there was 2 temporary greens. Play was very slow, just busy I think. Overall very enjoyable. A lot of par 3’s and the lack of par 5’s but they didn’t spoil the enjoyment at all.

warm and cosy course

thankfully found a companion to play with, lovely course, though could be hard to find directions to the next holes when crossing fields, especially if it’s your first time visit and you’re alone. With no winds, perfect place to enjoy golfing. Lastly, thanks to the person who broght back the wood cover I left on the field.

entered the pro shop and the guy serving was helpful and happy. went into the bar and the same can be said for the staff and people generally. course is fairly short but the greens were good and people were pleasant. was quite busy though. halfway house was closing when we got there but the lady opened up again so we could get a drink, very good.
