Turned out to be a nice change from my club course which is partially shut due to the weather.

The course is very playable and a nice mix of the tight strategic golf around the hotel grounds and the expansive open areas of the newer 9 holes.

Really enjoyed it.

The staff in the club shop and bar were friendly and there was a good selection of beers. The burger was excellent.

A very tidy and well thought out course that has some very good holes.
All the greens in very good condition and fairways were also decent.
My playing partners and I were a little uninspired bu the first couple of holes but around hole 6 things got interesting with a monster par 5 with a very difficult approach through a clearing to a tilted green. The 7th was also very good but only serves as a warm for the 8th which is simply stunning.
Back 9 also had some varied holes which were probably highlighted by a very long sweeping dog leg right left hole which is the 14th from memory. Watch out for the ditch water hazard in front of the green as that will catch a lot of people out.
Would of preferred some slightly better signage at points but overall we found our way round.
Strangely my Bushnell watch didn’t seem to pick up the right holes at the right time from the off however the associated app on the phone did???
Would definitely play here again and we plan too soon.

Played the day after lockdown and it was the busiest golf course I’ve ever been on understandably.

Still managed a decent round and the condition was good.

Greens were a little wooly but you’d expect that as they’d been allowed to grow and recover from the poor winter we had.

Overall a good afternoon out.
