Having recently played my local course in boggy/wet conditions on 6 occasions, this was a nice change. I had played this course within a month of it opening (2010 i think) when it was called the North West National, it has settled well since then.
The fairways and rough were in great condition following the recent inclement weather.
The greens were in pretty good condition too.
There were a number of tee boxes undergoing ground work which was good to see, notably the 11th, 12th, 13th, 17th and 18th.
The 15th green was out of use due to work being done, so the winter green was in use. There were 3/4 ground staff working on it at the time so I expect this to be open within days.
A couple of bunkers GUR but once again, being worked on.
Overall, well worth a visit, great value for money.
Once the putting green is in better condition and the new practice area, you can see this being a great place to visit on a regular occasion.
A good challenge for all handicaps even when the pins are in difficult positions.
