Bit hilly

Mixture of hilly and undulating fairways but slopes are up and down as opposed to side slopes. Good views. Well maintained course. Able to walk for those without fitness problems.

Great course

Well maintained with generally wide fairways and tricky greens. Greens fairly quick and in very good condition. Interesting holes needing some thought at times. An enjoyable round.

Hilly but good.

Lovely course well maintained with fast undulating greens. Great views. Unless very fit need a buggy to get around this hilly course with some distance between the odd green and next tee.

Well kept.

Good course for walking as only gentle inclines. Some interesting holes with hazards to be negotiated. Well maintained with greens and fairways in good conditions for time of year. Tee time was 1.30 so few people on the course making progress easy.

Well maintained course with mixture of hazards. Playing singly but pair of members ahead of me soon invited me to join them which made a very pleasant round.

Interesting course

Interesting course with variety of holes. Well signed holes with details of each hole on the tee. Generally wide fairways. Greens deceptive in respect of speed and contours. Good course for the average golfer.

Challenging but lovely

Well laid out course with varying types of interesting hole. Beautiful setting. Hilly in places so a good walk. Greens not as fast as I would have expected for a top course. Challenging course for the average golfer. Difficult par 3 holes.

hilly

A well maintained course with wide fairways and good sized greens. Some interesting holes but a hilly course with steep fairways making it a long course for the short hitters. Indeed on 3 holes short hitters have to use the red tees to ensure they are able to drive beyond the immediate hazards. Pace of play good because quiet at the time I played - 1 pm on a Friday. Would benefit from a course plan/layout as some blind holes and no details of hazards.

Been getting out and about and visiting some new courses this year. Played on Saturday for the first time and will definitely be coming back. Lots of very interesting holes and course in great condition. Not for the faint hearted though as probably the hilliest course I have ever played. Weather was dry with very little wind which helped, but would be an extreme test in harsher conditions. Great value, great course, pick your day and you will sleep soundly that night.

Lovely and well maintained course.

Nice parkland course with well maintained fairways and greens. Rolling countryside within a semi urban setting. Quiet during my round so no hold ups and able to play at my own pace. Only difficulty was getting out of the car park after as not given the code or token to raise the barrier. Make sure you get this before you leave.
