Newly sanded and spiked greens

The greens have recently been sanded and spiked. The club charged £50 per round. There should have been money off as the greens were not running well and putting was ‘hit and hope’. I would wait a few weeks for the greens to settle down before playing.

Good course but no breakfast facilities?!?

The course was well laid out and has some great attackable holes. The ground was rock hard so you had to land your approach shots short of the greens otherwise the ball ran straight through. Bizarrely, the restaurant didn’t open until 10.30am so we had to leave the course (4 ball tee time 9.30) and go back into town for a bacon roll and a coffee. Other than that, nice course, good value for money

Could be a great course - Needs looking after

We booked a 3 ball at the last minute through this app. The course is in terrible condition. The fairway grass is long and it's difficult to tell the difference between the fairway and the rough. Where it has been cut, the grass cuttings haven't been collected so they are all over the fairway. The greens have holes in which have been dug by rabbits or other wildlife. The greens are patchy but surprisingly run quite true. The bunkers look like bomb craters, they hadn't been raked and were untidy. Really disappointing as it could be a great course. The holes look interesting and well laid out. The course needs major investment. We booked to play a full round but quit after 9 holes (the first time I have quit a round in 21 years of playing). We understand it is cheap but thought we were getting a bit of a deal. For a bank holiday Monday, the course was very very quiet. There is no pro shop. There are changing rooms and a bar. You pay your green fees at the bar. The staff are friendly. I'm sorry to say that until improvements are made it's a waste of time and money.
