The course was very wet with plenty of swampy spots on fairways and water in some bunkers. Fairways also suffered a lot of damage from buggies. The course feels short when played from winter tees but all normal greens were in play and in reasonable condition. The course side close to M6 is very noisy. On the positive side, the staff and members were friendly and the price for a round of golf was very good. It wasn't the best golfing experience but a typical winter golf.

Playing at Bull Bay for the first time is really difficult. The course terrain is very uneven and on many tees you don't see where your ball has landed. The course is generally well looked after but if you didn't hit the fairway your chances of finding the ball in the rough are very slim. Greens were really good: reasonably firm and nicely cut. Surprisingly few bunkers for a links course and a couple of those I ended up in had very little sand.
The course offers absolutely stunning views. If you reliable off the tee (don't need to be long just straight) then the course offers a wonderful experience.
