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.
Excellent value
Weather was terrible all week before, but considering this the course was in amazing condition, no temporary greens or winter tees. Great value for money
Value for money!
A great tight course with some very challenging holes! Great value for the money to play 18 holes.
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.
Bargain Price
Where could you enjoy a round on Saturday morning for £20? Decent layout with plenty of room. Each hole had its own challenge. Greens suffering a bit due to winter but not unexpected this time of year and recent weather. Happy to play this course again in the future.
Great and challenging layout
Nice course but scruffy , realise the weather is challenging but other courses definitely spend a bit more time in the upkeep
Bunkers got to be the worst by far
The course is a lively layout and tight and challenging
Hopefully they get it back to how it used to be
The greens have recovered really well from the summer and were quite firm. The course is quite well drained. The only factor that let it down were youngsters shouting walking about with dogs on the last few holes. Dangerous and annoying. No signs of marshalls anywhere on the course. Apart from this it was a pleasant round.
A Brilliant Day
Played this morning (17/11/23) and had a brilliant day. The course was in excellent condition - no mats on the tees here - and the greens were great. Lost a couple of balls under the carpet of leaves but that’s unfortunate. I really wish all visitors (and members?) would remember to replace divots and repair pitch marks on the greens as the green keepers have obviously worked hard to keep the course in good condition. The buggy path all round the course really helps to enable those of us with less mobility to still play in the wet conditions we have experienced recently.
A big shout out also to the great staff in the clubhouse, particularly Sam and Max who are welcoming and friendly and seemed genuinely pleased that we visited their course this morning. I’m happy to recommend playing here to my friends and can honestly say you won’t find a better deal for this money anywhere nearby.
Thanks team and look forward to seeing you again.
Great course, for little money
Played here today for the second time. After the torrential rain we’ve had I was expecting the course to be almost unplayable. To my surprise, it was anything but. We used a buggy, as I have some mobility issues. Buggies allowed all year round, in winter use cart path, then drive across the fairway at 90 degrees. Green were very good for the conditions and at only £15 per round it is unbelievable value . Sam, & Max in the clubhouse make your visit even more enjoyable with their caring nature, and relaxed attitude. Some courses can be quite stuffy, but not here. We will definitely be returning in the future. A must try
Excellent staff
The Steffens were so friendly and accommodating especially the two blonde ladies who we’re friendly and accommodating have booked our Xmas society day there as the food was great and the staff made us feel welcome
Decent for the price
For £22.50 it was definitely worth it, greens look like they are on the mend. It’s hard to book an early morning slot on a weekend unless you are a member somewhere so this course is decent as there’s always slots!
Great course
Highly recommendable great course. Very friendly staff
Very good course friendly staff
The course was very nice, well kept, staff were very friendly reasonable prices. Would highly recommend we’ll established course
Not great..
Took 3 hours to play 11 holes in a 2 ball. Greens were very poor, couldn’t tell them from the fairway, with bobbles all over.
Wouldn’t play here again unless I was really desperate!
