Really impressed with every facet of the experience. Course is a great test that requires good ball striking. Most holes are fairly generous fairways that are well disguised with brilliant bunkering or contours. Greens have lots of undulations on and around making approach play a challenge too. Really needs yardage discs dotted around at far more points between 100 and 200 yrds however for the serious golfer.

Cold windy day edging into the dead of winter. Expectations are not high. We had been advised that the fairways had suffered due to the intense summer sun and evedence of it was clear. However preferring our lie cleared up any of the damage issues easily. Even in the face of this they still ran great and the surface quality is a joy to hit off, and the sound!
If the fairways suffered the greens certainly hadn’t! Just outstanding for anytime of year especially now. True fast and at times vast!
The layout is the real star however. The undulations of the topography make for distinct lines off tees and huddled guarded Greens with testing run offs. Just ticks all the boxes of a classic links.
Now If only I could hit it 190 off the deck into the wind.
