Strong challenge, always playable

One of the few courses that genuinely is playale all year round - no temporary greens or tees, drainage good. A very stiff test off the back tees in winter due to the wind, but always playable. At this time of year there is nothing more annoying than playing 'half' a course, like most in Bedfordshire, but not a problem here!

A tired course......

This course shows its age, given the advance in golf equipment. Some very good feature holes, but far too many 'mickey mouse' holes are also in the mix. Some of the Par 3's are just pitch and putt material, and the par 5's very short by modern standards.

Condition is variable, and it's not a good course for any winter golf.
