Windy and wet

Greens very long which made them very slow. Although by the time we got onto back 9 they had been cut and ran a bit better.
Yes there’s drainage works but it does not affect you unless you hit into it. I think the previous reviewer is a very harsh with their comments.
Temp tee boxes in play also, which meant you played off the same tees twice. It actually made the course play a lot different from the last time we played here.
Still good value at a tenner.

Better than before

I have to say this course has improved a lot.and it seems a lot of work to trees has been done. The long rough that once was is no more. Some good challenging holes as well as some easier ones. the fairways were in ok condition. The greens didn't look the best but the ball ran well and were hard to judge. It was a little windy which made one of the par 5s very testing to make par and i do not think i would like to play in any stronger wind then their was when we played as the course is quite open. Overall a good course and we will be back soon to play again.
