Played On 09/11/2014Great Layout but Very Poor Greens
Have been wanting to play this course for sometime as it carries a good reputation in the local area. First impressions when you walk onto the first is that it is in need of some tlc. The first green was appalling. Several bare patches, uneven growth, hairy and very, very slow. Worst of all it was almost midday and the heavy overnight dew and leaves had not been wiped from the surface (something that is performed at my home course greenkeeping staff at the crack of dawn each day). The first green appeared to be the worst but the rest were only slightly better. Have played more that a dozen courses this year but these greens were the poorest. Some of the bunkers also hadn't been raked. The course has a great layout and would prove a suitable challenge for most golfers without being overly so. Clubhouse facilities, staff and food served were great. A very nice parkland setting but a bit more attention is required to bring it up to scratch.
