Three of us traveled for an hour to get there and there were no toilet facilities till the bar opened at 11 due to covid restrictions. A problem if you teed off at 10.30. This made one of our group uncomfortable for the round. There was a shortage of scorecards and we were given one between three. The greens were smooth and the fairways well maintained. If you missed a green narrowly you were punished with thick semi rough. Likewise thick semi just off the fairway which made ball finding difficult at times. The members who manned the bar were extremely welcoming. A good test of golf and very interesting course which is well worth visiting.

The course was beautifully presented. It is fairly straightforward on the first 10 holes but be prepared to struggle if you go off line on the back nine when the fairways are much narrower on some holes. The semi-rough is quite 'clingy' in places and difficult to hit the ball any great distance. The fairways are excellent and the greens ran true, if a little slow, but given the hot conditions I can understand them not being cut too short as they would have dried out. Great views.
