Played this course on the Bank Holiday Monday as a two ball with my son. We had a tee off of 1.52 and were expecting a fairly slow round. On arrival we were told that we could tee off whenever we wanted to as they weren’t very busy. This was an understatement as after we had a quick warm up didn’t really see another soul until we caught up with a two ball in front on the 16th, and despite only ambling around finished in just over 3 hours.
With regards the course it was playing really well with a good variety of holes and despite not necessarily being the longest, with many holes being accurate is more important than distance with the correct club selection being equally important. All of the fairways seemed in good condition with the greens being very testing as they were fairly fast and many had a massive variety of slopes and breaks. It took us both a while to get the feel of the green’s but once we had they seemed very consistent.
Off the course all the facilities seemed to be well looked after and the staff very friendly.
Overall I would recommend this course but at £50 slightly expensive even for a Bank Holiday round.

We decided to play this course as it was a very good price for a lunch time tee off. On arrival it wasn’t exactly clear where the club shop now is, having found a small barred window with the pro? sitting the other side we quickly paid and went to tee off.
The Course is pretty good shape with the fairways pretty dry which is fairly standard in this area at the moment. We found the layout of the course pretty easy and we’re lucky to play on a day with not to much wind meaning the 4 of us managed to complete the round in just over 3 1/2 hours with our group consisting of a 11, 19, 24 & 26 handicapper.
As with just about all Lynx courses fairway golf is vital as the rough is pretty unforgiving and with water in play on around 11 holes I can imagine a bad day could become pretty expensive.
I would recommend playing this course but as it is about an hours drive for me I probably wouldn’t unless down this way for other reasons

Played the course on Saturday with my son and we both enjoyed playing the course and both finished just below our handicaps which always helps. We did come away with a few observations both good and bad.
Good - both the staff and the members seemed really friendly and helpful both on and off the course. Pace of play was pretty good under 4 hours and that was with us following behind a series of 4 balls. Good adherence to all the current Covid restrictions without being to over the top.
Bad - some of the greens did not seem to be in the best of conditions with several with newly laid sections of grass that appear to be struggling to take in the current conditions, several also had small holes in them which I’m not sure what has caused these but made putting a challenge on occasion. Our main issue was the price which at £45 was just a little more than we thought worth it.
A good day overall though despite me loosing to my son on the last again!!
