Swamp

Course was very soft, grass on fairways and rough was long ball plugged every other shot couldn't find a few balls we had hit greens where good but getting to them was a task.

Thé course was in very good condition and the greens were excellent it’s a long walk but you can hire buggies I think there were some out on the course but none at the pro shop but I would definitely recommend it to anyone as it is a good course

Great course

The only downside I found was if a visitor needed to used the toilet they would have to ask a member to let them into the building where the men/women's toilets were located.
Also there are no instructions on the entrance to the building to inform anyone about this. It's a good course and the staff are friendly and so are the members but my advice is don't get caught short or you could be in trouble.
