Very wet course so we left early. The course shouldn't have been open. If it is dry for several days before then I expect the course would be fine
Boggiest course I’ve ever played,
We was warned that the course was wet but nothing could prepare us for how it actually was.
Greens were pretty decent and firm but everywhere else is marshland.
3 of us played and lost 35 balls ( 1 handicap, 12 handicap and 20 handicaps) hit the fairway most of the time, think that’s where we went wrong.
We all fell over and got full of mud, very lucky we didn’t hurt ourselves.
The course should be shut as it’s really not playable.
Would not go back if I was paid.
Wish we used the rule of not happy after 3 holes get your money back.
Great Location
1st time playing and will definitely be back in the summer. A bit wet and slippy in places, but with weather we have had, not unexpected. Priced very reasonably, and I imagine a great course in spring/summer.
Overall, an enjoyable 4 1/2 hours of golf.
Also must mention the facilities. Lots of shops/cafes on site with very reasonable prices.
Wet as it gets
Super wet and boggy but they do have a policy in place to get a refund if f you’re not satisfied with the course on the day. Can’t complain for the price and it’s a great course in the summer
Wet
Very wet, unplayable but will refund after 3 holes if you don’t want to play because of conditions. Would be a good course to play in the summer.
Nice course
Quite wet in the winter months but a nice course to play...
A challenging parkland course that uses its features
The weather had been absolutely awful so we weren’t expecting much. Like every course around here it is boggy!
To get out for a round of golf is an achievement.
The winter policy is spot on - if you are not happy about the conditions after three holes come off and get your money back. We played 18😂
The staff are very friendly and the cafe is great value.
Course conditions
The course was open to players, after all the heavy rain that everyone has had it was no surprise that the place was saturated with parts of the course almost unplayable, however it was a nice sunny day so we just got on with it and made the most of it, We could return when the course has dried out
Absolutely awful.
Like playing golf on a football pitch. No drainage whatsoever so you are walking in mud pretty much all way round. Greens are ok but the layout of the course is really bad no proper tee boxes on most holes which is shame because if there was good upkeep would be a good course. Go from 12th hole and make the mistake of thinking 15th hole is next one to go to. Layout really poor.
Directions
This is my 1st time on this course and only criticism is there are no direction to the next tee so went wrong way a couple of times.
Was boggy but staff said we can come off after 3 holes and get refund if we wanted. We stayed on as course was nice.
Total quagmire
Please, please sort the drainage. Every hole bar the 18th was a squelchy mess.
The pace of play was so slow that we skipped 4 holes. Will not be back in a hurry. Gutted as the course set out is excellent.
Not great…
I head great things about this course, but as I showed up the lady at the front desk was constantly on the phone—they seemed a bit short staffed…
They no longer have a practice area, and although I didn’t see the driving range, I’m sure it’s probably very basic.
The course was horrible. It was not kept very well, greens were a bit rubbish, and overall the pace of play was a bit slow because of how bad the course was.
There were leaves everywhere which means me and my brother lost plenty of balls in them.
Overall nowhere near as good as I had anticipated. It’s cheap for a reason…
Maybe with better weather it could be decent, but you’re better off playing at another course.
Okay
Good round of golf really, but got ruined by the festival in the park doing karaoke on what seemed like full volume. This may just be a one off but the course it’s self was great
Super value, great setup.
Super value for such a great setup. Does however have issues when it's been raining otherwise a great course worth travelling to.
Absolute quagmire
Had a lot of rain but this place is a mud bath bunkers full of water you can tell the council maintains this. Even has roadworks on the first hole.
