Overall good
Rated as above
Slow play from the 6th tee onwards, no offer the play through.
Disappointing
4.5 hours to play a short course is very poor. At one point there were 17 golfers playing a par 3 and a short par 4
So Slow...5hrs
First of all, this course is in great condition. Excellent on the eye and clearly well maintained.
I started with 2 clear holes and by the 3rd tee there were 3 groups waiting. The layout lends to bottlenecks which were not helped by single golfers (such as myself) holding up play.
Overall, the course management needs looked at and perhaps a starter would be a good addition.
I have serious reservations about playing this course again as 5hrs and a lot of standing around just isn't fun.
Good way to spend the day
Great course good layout,greens very good and receptive bit of walking between some tee's.overall great for a game of golf and would recommend and would play again.
Frustrating
The course is very challenging with a lot of blind holes which if well kept would be playable but with the recent hot weather every fairway is like concrete, very hilly course would recommend a buggy if you don’t fancy being out of breath before every shot
Not great
First part of this course is brilliant and the rest of the front 9 is still good. Back 9 Has all sorts of construction going on, which for me isn’t an issue but for some may be.
The pace of play was awful. Queueing from the first hole onwards. Never had such a slow round and many parties were giving up leaving half way through the back 9, which you wouldn’t expect on a course of this standard and price range.
Hot day
We played during the ongoing heatwave so the fairways were very dry and hard - as they are everywhere at the moment. The greens were good. Pro shop staff and starter helpful and friendly.
Disappointing Experience
A tricky short course with a lot of Par3's - layout squeezed into area available, very hilly, buggies recommended which adds considerably to the cost. Overall course has a lot of development going on making it untidy and unloved. Poor irrigation greens starting to disappear and impossible to hold the ball with any club. Would suggest waiting until current work complete and course matures before playing.
Slow!
Huge excavations around holes 9/10 which slowed everything down. There should be a mechanism to pre warn golfers about this before they book. At no time we’re we told about this, not even in the pro shop when we checked in
Slow slow slow
5.5 hours for a round of golf.
Fairways were shocking
10 minute wait on each tee is no good.
Short course but a real challenge
Played this course several times now and on both occasions the weather was hot and sunny, the course plays short but don't be fooled into thinking it's an easy knock, far from it, the layout and undulations of nearly all the fairways make it a challenge in it's self, and the greens are firm, pacey and undulating, lots of up and downhill holes, reachable par five's in two but watch out for the strategically placed lakes especially on the last.
If your 50 years plus
Very good course some testing holes, but uphill and down dale, greens were hard to read a bit slow. You need a buggy. Having said that I will play it again. Very enjoyable
Been a While
Enjoyed going back, fairways in great condition, greens a little “fluffy” but had a great day. Borrowed a driver from the pro shop as looking to change mine which I thought was a great help as not quite the same practicing with a new club on a range/bay.
Lots of heavy machinery and groundwork’s going on so plenty of investment going on which is good to see. Would recommend a visit if you’ve not tried it before … not long, but definitely a thinking man’s course and you need to manage your game to score well
Exiting course 45mph winds!
Really enjoy playing here, except it felt like I was playing on a building site, and this has lasted for years!! It will be brilliant one day!!
Great in places
Such a shame as I can see the potential in this course. They are currently redesigning the course towards the back nine so not ideal to play on a building site (which the pro forgot to mention). Most holes offer interest and make you think about shot selection. There are too many PAR 3’s hopefully this will be addressed with the course redesign. Tee’s and Fairways were fantastic! Unfortunately 90% of the greens are just awful and I’m worried this will take time to address. They were lacking grass and even the holes were not level with the green which meant a dome effect around them. It ruined my game which is such a shame and at £30 a round was not good value for money. I fear this might take two years to resolve but I hope I’m wrong…
Dreadful course
Greens poor fairways poor pace of play poor - do not bother
