Well presented
Really nice cause well presented and nicely kept. Fast greens well maintained from diverts
Excellent Value
Booked this course on a hot deal, and for what we paid, it couldn't be faulted. Some nice holes, greens in reasonable condition, fairways not the best but perfectly adequate. Wasn't too busy and got around in good time. Excellent course to walk, no buggy needed. Will definitely play again.
Great value
Great deal as usual, business model is cheap deals keeping course busy downside is bit of a procession round , par 5 we were one group of 4 playing on same hole,, waiting on almost all holes. Temp tees all round but all greens open. Signage could be better in particular coming off 9th trying find 10th fortunately played last year so knew where this temp tee box was about 80 yards further back . Overall if played before you know what to expect. Staff were very friendly and good facilities for drink and meal after.
Lovely course but waterlogged
This course is a lovely course and the staff are very friendly. The only thing stopping me giving was a couple of holes being a bit boggy due to a week of rain previously. I will be back in the summer to sample it in the proper conditions.
A Little Soggy
Enjoyed playing course albeit after a few days or rain. About 5 challenging holes otherwise not that interesting.
Off course hotel bar was a kids playground. There is nothing worse that wrecking your eardrums through the uncontrolled screaming of a herd of someone else’s children.
Will play the course again later in the year.
Great course and value for money
First time playing this course whilst on holiday, it’s really nice course, quite short but have to be accurate which I like, good variety of holes. Couple of holes have a ‘walk’ between green and next tee.
Course was in great condition although I did think the greens needed a trim or perhaps I’m used to faster greens, at £15 great value and took me about 2 hour 40 mins to get round (a couple of groups let me play through). Would recommend.
4 hours
Il start of by saying Iv never been one for doing a review especially a bad review.
4 hours 1 golfer plus a buggy!
I started the 2nd hole behind 3 groups 3rd hole had two groups of 4 waiting. Won’t be coming back again
Turned up and it was clear, they had overbooked.
By the time my 12.15 tee time came around there were still 4 buggies on the tee and all 4 balls.
I left at 12.35 without hitting a ball as i could see a 5 hour round otherwise
Lovely course
Really enjoyed the course. Fairways and greens in good condition. Pace of play was excellent - no delays. Food and beer was pricey- £5.50 for a pint of Stella Artois and £13.50 for a burger.
Great vfm
Although the course was very wet after the deluge of the previous few days it stood up pretty well. Greens were wet which meant you could throw the ball right up to to the hole but still putted true if a little slow. Overall a great day had.
Well worth a visit
Generous fairways are generally open and inviting for good shot making, but with a range of hazards to make strategy important. Good greens for time of year. Played the course on a damp day, which did not affect course too badly.
October 2021
Being quite local I’ve played this course many times, tee times are squeezed in every 7 mins and the first hole is a blind shot par 4 with a bell, it’s just not feasible for tee times to stay on time, quite often there will be 24 people on the 1st tee, ridiculous booking system
Over subscribed
The staff were friendly and informative - really efficient!
The course was nice but a little criss-crossed.
The course was oversubscribed - the result was slow play, queuing and some irritation amongst players. The gap was,I think, 6 minutes - not really feasible for 4-balls!
Pity because the course looked good but we gave up after 9 holes - 2hrs 25mins was enough for us!
Nice course, good value
A nice course with plenty of variety. The greens were a bit slow, possibly recovering from maintenance, but overall a good afternoon of golf at a very reasonable cost
.
Great course
Really good course, have just seeded the greens though so don’t expect your putting to help you round :)
Course was In excellent condition. Greens superb. Will definitely be going back. Good value for money
