No matter how cheap don’t waste your money

Whilst I can’t specifically review the back nine, this is because I walked off the course thanks to how poor an experience the front 9 was. I have never walked off a course before in my life.

Despite the round only costing £15 it still feels like a robbery.

A few points:
Poor general course condition with no consistency. It looks like no maintenance has taken place.
Fairways alternately bare or lush.
Greens like putting on your back lawn.
Zero navigation signs between holes.
Numerous blind tee shots with no (barring the 1st) fairway poles to guide you.

All of this made worse by the fact that the card collected from the pro shop before was ‘home’ printed with no course map for reference.

I urge you to spend the extra £3-5 and play one of the other (better) courses in the area even if they are a longer journey to get to. Or if not, go to a driving range.

Lovely track

A really well designed course with some short par 3’s, tight fairways and longer holes that plays fairly for the mid handicapper.

Pace of play was excellent given I was playing on my own, with good etiquette shown by other golfers (four groups allowing me to play through).

A few bare patches around the greens and poorly placed signage to direct you to the next tee being the things which let the layout down.

I would (and will) definitely play here again.
