Ignore bad reviews, very good course for the money

Brilliant round today - second time i've played here and its a really enjoyable course to play. The conditions were good, although rough has clearly been cut back lots on the fairways, its still fairly long especially around and on the green (greens def could do with a cut, they were slow and a bit bobbly). Pro was awesome, quickly re-gripped my club for me - golf pride - £9 which was good. Had a brill bacon sandwich and cup of tea (bacon was thick cut). Overall impressed - ignore the folks that get stuck behind societies and leave one star reviews - sometimes your unlucky but the course has to make money!! And anyway if its that bad after 9 the pro will always give you credit for another time so stop moaning!!

good variety in a small bit of land

enjoyed my round, the crossover holes were plentiful but proved no problem for me on the day. They have managed to put a decent course together on what is clearly a small parcel of land. Probably half the holes are interesting, the other half a bit up and down, but does provide an easy walk with only one hill on the 14th to negotiate. Definitely be back, but dont play on a busy day (it was quiet for me), It would take forever to play due to the crossing over of holes/tees.

Great course, hilly but not too Ridiculous

First time playing here with my 68 year old father when every other course around is either half shut or not open at all due to recent wet weather. Worries that we wouldnt be allowed trolleys but amazinly only buggies were banned! Greens - pin placement the day i played was very hard, lots cut on the front edge or the hardest point on the Greeen with the most angles - maybe it was a competion time recently. They were bobbly but run fast for wet greens, can image they are pretty slick when summertime comes around. The course is hilly, but with only three really steep bits, the rest is more than manageable. Would recommend.

happy day amazing course!

I'd like to keep it a secret, but have to tell you what an amazing course! I have been waiting years for this private club to offer some decent deals, and I'm thrilled to of played a great round in the winter sun today. Friendly pro showed me the first tee, good condition greens for time of year. Interesting holes, some water loads of bunkers I bet it's beautiful playing in the summer.

Good course layout let down by grass cuttings everywhere!

Im not kidding, grass cuttings on every single fairway - which meant you couldn't tell if your on the fairway or not! Good course layout totally let down by a dodgy mower. Proper school boy error - i've played golf all my life and never seen cuttings everywhere like this! I would suggest a pretty good winter course when the broken mower isn't out! Greens were good, bunkers usual builders sand however... I might come back for a £10.

great course

The quality of holes surprised me greatly! Each hole is different with lots of elevation changes. Easy working although a few up hills. Shame I waited so long to play this rather local course - definitely be back.

great unusual choice of three loops of 9

Love this course although it is often overpriced, so I only play when there is plenty of deals on! Course is ace, three 9's are all good. THe only problem is the overtly posh people who play here thinking they are members of St.Andrews or something, apart from that brilliant.

Great good value course

Can't knock it at all, and the fairways were in brilliant shape! For the money its pretty good. Only three hills which aint that bad! (I'm 40). Green ok, scored a few pars so I'm happy. Would recommend for a practice or cheap round.

always love playing this course...

Tree lined nearly every hole making accuracy a must. Good green complexes, tricky green requiring reading (unlike a lot of courses which are usually no-break straight putting). About 4 or 5 winter greens, which is excellent for time of year and totally understandable. Real gem, beats most of local courses around this part of the world...

good winter course

No temp greens, lots of bunkering which adds interest, couple of hills but easy walking. Enjoyed my round with the sun shining! Lots of bunkers, but some where poor quality. Good greens for time of year, overall pretty good. Only let down was very slow members putting like its the masters, each with their own penny to mark their ball after every putt...just get on with it when people are waiting!!
