The course was immaculate! Still playing from summer tees, I was surprised to see greenstaff rolling the greens between Christmas and New Year! They were in excellent condition and the rest of the course was drier than some courses in the height of summer! The layout is excellent and the gin clear skies contributed to our experience by emphasising the fantastic views available throughout the round. The only thing that spoiled the visit was pace-of-play. Obviously lots of people know how good the condition of the course is and it was packed; 2hrs 40mins for the front 9 meant that we (2 ball) never had chance to complete our round despite teeing off 3hrs 45mins before sunset. Many of the members in front of us left the course after 11 holes, with no hope of completion which meant pace-of-play improved but we still only made it to 16 and didn't get to finish what would have been a very enjoyable round.

Interesting layout, v dry for this time of year, greens in reasonable condition.
