Excellent pitch and putt/short course

We played early in the morning and the conditions and the condition of the course were both perfect. For a beginner or someone who wants to work on their short game, it was excellent. greens held shots and were very smooth.

Really Good 3 par

Good value, course condition was very good except a couple of tee boxes need some TLC. Twosome in front of us was clueless so we barely made 18. Overall enjoyed the course and will play there again.
