Slow slow slow

By far the worst course I have ever played, the course is in an average condition for the price can't complain. The pace of play is disgusting, took me two hours to play 7 holes. During this time I was behind a two ball who refused to let a single player through. The real tipping point which resulted in me walking off the course was I was followed by three young lads not playing golf for 6 holes (they then walked up the 6th delaying me even further) and another man with his dog routing round the bushes behind me on the next two holes, avoid this course unless you are going to be here first thing, terrible.

Very good golf course kept in generally good condition. Play on this particular day was very very slow due to groups in front not appreciating that you can’t spend an age looking for lost balls at every other hole or taking numerous tee shots.

Amazing value for money

What a great course, still can’t believe played 18 decent holes for £12, yes couple of holes got gur issues but normal for a course surrounded by canals, other than a couple, every other hole really good, couple of great par 3’s, couple of great par 5’s rest all par 4’s, I will be playing here again, well done to staff, honestly put your price up you deserve it.

For a £14 game for 18 holes can't really complain to much . Greens where in good condition. The fairways could do with maintaining on a few holes you can be punished for landing in the fairways

Could be so much better

Played here lots of times and definite improvements have been made. But the 15th. hole is a total mess and lets the whole course down. Plus the fact that pre-covid we were paying no more than £10 midweek as seniors and that has increased to £15. It is such a pity that drainage issues on various parts of the course cannot be sorted.

Pace of place was very slow, waiting around a lot. Tee off was 11:54, actually got going about 12:04 there was a society out infront of the 3 lads in front of us, waiting around a lot. Not ringing bells when course states too.

Warm day, great course. Can't help big groups sometimes. But 4hours 40 for 18 holes is a bit ridiculous..
