Great Little Course

Lovely little 9 hole course and the greens were amazing. If any slight criticism there was no pro shop and no one to check in with, no par 5’s and a lot of holes cross over each other.

Nice 9 hole course

Layout is bizarre as you play the same holes over and over .
The guy who was running it was really pleasant and helped us out at the beginning but some of the locals were pretty stuck up and telling us how to repair divets (although we’re experienced players)
Overall nice few hours out and about
But will not be returning

Great little location and top class greens!!

I’ve lived locally for years but only just tried out this course. Really well presented and the greens were excellent.
It’s a tough start with a few 450 yard par 4s but there is plenty of character throughout and a couple of really gorgeous looking holes.
. There are separate tee positions for the back 9. This will now be my go to course. Little gem!!

Nice little course

Good for the money, but only 9 holes with different tees on back nine leads to interrupted play on times. Staff and patrons very pleasant and will attend again.

Mixed

Was looking forward to playing this course, unfortunately the local members were not friendly apart from one who gave some advice for some holes, good though as I won’t be taking up membership here, the course was great though greens where kept lovely the 18th was difficult to get over the bridge and very difficult holes but a great course

Nice little course

Played the course for the first time as it was a local course i never played before. Its a basic 9 hole par 33 course that has different tee offs on the back nine. The course is well cared for and the greens are very good and fast and pretty testing. Overall the course has some great views and moderate challenge for club golfers i would definitely return and recommend.

Rough!

Lost 9 balls, without hitting out of bounds once. Very long rough, blind holes, a couple that are virtually unplayable, and a ridiculous bridge on the 9th/18th which I could barely cross. Staff were gruff, locals not very friendly, I didn't really enjoy this at all, sadly.
