Perfect course for practice

Played here a few times before and always enjoy it. Decent mixture of doglegs and yardages. 9 hole course which you play twice for the 18.
Very flat so lovely for working on your irons or wedges etc.

Fabulous course - highly recommend

Our 3rd time playing this gem of a course, and despite the persistent dry weather, the course was in a great condition. The fairways were a little yellow from the heat and drought, but the greens were excellent yet again. Great layout, with a fantastic mixture of different challenges at each hole. A well stocked club shop, lovely putting green and bar facilities. We haven't eaten there but a good selection of draught and bottled beers are available.

Would thoroughly recommend. Staff and members welcoming and helpful.

Fantastic Greens

Course was in a really good condition considering the time of year (late September) and all the heat we've had this year. Tee boxes, fairways and greens in very good condition. Was playing on my own, and got let through a number of times meaning I had a great pace until a bit of a hold up on the 16th.

Hidden Gem!

Loved everything about his place from the reachable Par 4 1st through to all the different holes which each presented a different challenge and something to think about. A mix of lengths and dogleg. Fairways were in great condition despite the dry weather we've had for months, and the greens were immaculate. Great bar with a choice of draught drinks and lovely outdoor seating area. Well stocked clubshop. Will definitely be back and am tempted to join!

Absolutely loved this course. Fairways and Greens were immaculate, and course layout was mostly easy to find your way around apart from one tee on the back 9 (I think) which was a longer walk than the rest and wasn't signposted so took some finding. A flat course, with mature trees and a nice mixture of long par 4s and 5s with some intriguing par 3s. The weather on this day was perfect and was quite hot. The only downside for my ratings was that the clubhouse bar inexplicably closed at 5pm without warning (it was a Sunday) which left a lot of the golfers finishing their rounds disappointed.
Also a 4 ball ahead of us kept holding us up, but they eventually let us play through.

Will definitely play again!

Incredibly well maintained course, which matched hsome of the other reviews. Firm, true greens, great fairways. A mix of 'links' feeling holes combined with parkland holes. A few hole layouts were a bit confusing, but members assisted when I got lost. A few of the fairways also cross each other but that's fairly obvious when you're there.
Very friendly members. Indoor facilities obviously still closed due to pandemic so had to just put a neutral 'average' rating down for that.
Will definitely be back!

Have to say I really enjoyed this course. Was saying in the area and used GolfNow to find something of a decent standard and this course didn't disappoint. Mostly flat, mature parkland course, with mostly straight holes so you have to be accurate off the tee. Course was really well looked after, and the greens were superb, and true. Lovely Par 3 at the 15th, with an elevated green which itself was on 3 tiers. Got a little bit confused as to the layout at this point, but some members helped me find my way again. All members I encountered were friendly, and helpful.
Off course facilities were obviously shut due to Covid so could only put 3 stars down for this but the clubhouse looks extensive. Will definitely be back.

Gem of a course

Fantastic course from start to finish. Beautiful opening hole, displaying two other fairways which were immaculately cut.
Good Covid protocol, with free hand sanitiser pouches for out on the course and putter flag lifters, so no need to touch the flags at all.
Course was in a great condition, greens were great, and flow of play was as expected with a lot of individual players coming through.
Helpful clubshop staff, but didn't stay for post round refreshments as it was the UK's hottest day of the year, so I needed 30 minutes of aircon in the car before I could leave the club!!
Well recommended.

Perfect greens!

As a non member I had a friendly welcome from the club shop chap and there was even a buggy there for me to hire with no notice. The greens were incredible and the course itself is mature, challenging in parts and has some very picturesque holes. I was playing alone and was held up a bit by a competition ahead but they let me through on the 9th and I whizzed through after that. Can't wait to go back!
