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.

Friendly links golf.

First time playing - good fun course. Keep the map with you if not playing with member as need to cross the road a few times. Everyone I came across were really friendly- got a bit lost on one tee and 2 gents were really helpful. Lovely half way house- great staff. park in the road adjacent to course if you can’t get in car park. Excellent bunkers - short course but overall I thought excellent value. Nice views of the sea- I’ll be back! Keep the friendly vibe going it makes you stand out. Top stuff.

Good Value

For the price, I'd say this was a good course. 2nd time I played here. First time was in July and the course was playing fast. This week was in decent condition. One thing is that the signs should be better. If you didn't know the course, there could be some confusion for the 4th hole, but overall a decent course for the money. Greens were well kept too.

Windy weather

Tight short course

Rather flat, short and very tight. Fairways close together with little protection from the wind. Very slow round 3 3/4 hours for a two ball. Held up on every tee
