Willingdon is a tree lined course and after 20 + years is maturing into a really picturesque joy, far from the farmers fields of years gone by. I would say the fairways are in the best condition since playing on and off for over 20+ years, although the green are not great, hopefully they will improve in the summer months. I am not sure where Golfnow (formerly TeeTimes) get there prices from as this course can be played at anytime for £20, there is a big sign outside promoting this offer.

We played on a lovely sunny day, with a very slight breeze, perfect conditions for golf. The two of us virtually had the course to ourselves, despite teeing off at 2:00pm, which meant we could go at our own pace. The course was in fabulous condition for mid-May, with lovely, soft, receptive well kept greens. There are some parts of the course where there are hilly parts to climb, so it might be worth thinking of a buggy if a flat course can be bit of a struggle. Ultimately you will not only enjoy playing here but be rewarded with the most stunning views form the cliff-tops and an amazing 18th hole finish on.
