I Recommend This Course
Ok if you want to get out
Tee boxes are terrible in winter and wet conditions, in desperate need of winter tee mats.

Played On 10/28/2020Never again in winter
A decent course in summer but stay clear in winter, it doesn’t drain, its boggy and mulchy underfoot, when I had finished I looked like I’d been potato picking, mud everywhere. No golf club house, we paid to get on but there were people playing who had not due to no one at the course to check, we know this because we had 4 lads stood on the tee at our tee off time when we asked what time they had booked they just said we must be after you then.
Needs better organisation.

Sorry to hear you didn't have the greatest of experiences earlier this week.
Unfortunately, over the last 10 days we have been subject to over 50mm rainfall, the equivalent of 50L water. Whilst the water is starting to drain, the constant barrage of more rain isn't helping the situation. Our fantastic greenstaff have targeted specific key areas to add new drainage runs, however, given the weather, it is difficult to commence the required works without damaging key areas of the course.
As for the four-ball on the first tee, if you could be so kind to email us the date and time you played, we will certainly look into this. Since reopening the course on 13th May, we have had daily a starter on the first tee from 09:30 - 18:30. However, these duties were dissolved earlier this month at the close of the season. But, we do still have course wardens patrolling the course on a daily basis.
If you do drop us an email (address below), we will be happy to issue a complimentary four-ball voucher to be used in the new year when the weather is on our side.
Best wishes,

Sorry to hear you didn't have the most enjoyable experience earlier this week. Unfortunately the course has been subject to over 50mm rainfall in the last 10 days equating to 50 litres of water. Whilst the water is slowly draining, the water table in the area is still high and nor running away as we would like.
As for the four-ball in front, we will look into this. Since reopening the course in May, we have had a daily starter on the first tee from 09:30 - 18:30. However, this was taken out of practice at the starter of October at the close of the season. The committee will look at what can be done to stop this happening again.
Feel free to drop us an email and we will be happy to provide a courtesy round come the new year when the weather is on side.
