The greens were bumpy. The fairway grass was too long and roughly cut. The rough was too rough. Play was very slow stuck behind a society. The two ball behind us gave up. 5 hour’s is too long. The chap in the pro shop was chatting to someone on the phone while myself and another waited to be served. The day ended when someone from the club staff closed the door to the patio area and suggested I walk around, fortunately He changed his view. The lady behind the bar when we arrived was good as was the quality of the bacon roll and coffee.

Quite happy to come back here. Shame it’s not closer to home as I would have no hesitation taking membership. Course suits our play. Good food and drink in the club house at reasonable price.

The incredibly slow play at this course on the day we played does not fill us with any confidence to return again. Slow play started early in our game and got slower as we got further around the course. A queue had developed, at I think hole 10 (has the mobile toilet) and from there on it got slower and slower until loss of momentum and the will to play any more holes ended after hole 13. Spoilt round which was either due to slow play or over booking. We complained in the Golf Shop and they were quick to give us a voucher to return however the voucher printed had an expiry date of February 2017, so we threw them on the counter and left in disgust as a queue had now developed in the shop and we had had enough of waiting. I am sure other players did not appreciate the 5 hours spent queuing for a round of golf. It may have helped if the provisions cart had been at the delay point for longer, as we passed it on our way out there.
