Avoid for a few years

The course is in poor condition due to lack of care. It will need a few years to recover. They are silly to charge people £39 a round on a weekend. It is shocking.
Animal holes on the greens which are also heavily sanded. Uneven tee boxes. Bumpy, scared fairways. The 17th is mud with lines of grass at one point.
Overall it’s a real shame, because the course layout is nice, so once the course is restored, it could be a nice challenging little course.

Do not play

Terrible course. The course is in poor condition due to lack of care. This isn’t damage from one winter. This is from years of poor maintenance.

The course design is nice and makes use for surroundings. However, the current condition and work being done, they are silly to charge £39pp! I think no more than £20-25pp as it stands.

Good course to practice on

Overall good short course. Lots of mid iron par 4s (260-330 yards) and some short par 5s.
The course map is on the back of the card...and it is needed.
Great use of trees and some good use of space.
Some respectful members let me through at the earliest opportunity. Then another pair of members held me up for 4 holes before letting me through.

Great potential

The course has a good layout but the conditions of it let it down. It needs a bit of care for the fairway (very patchy) and the greens (bumpy and some in bad condition) then it would be a very good course.

The staff were nice, but the food options were poor. You may need to pop out to get something to eat or bring your own (until they hire a chef).

If they improve the fairways and greens, I would be keen on playing the course again.

Decent for a knockabout

The course is ok for players to get some practice in.
However, the fairways and greens weren’t in good conditions. The greens ran slow (which was surprising given the heat we had running up to the round) and fairways were long in parts.
Some good challenging holes though.
