Little cracker

Last minute pick on golf now due to our own course shut due to bad weather. Staff very helpful on arrival & corse in excellent condition. Played 18 although front & back 9 exactly the same on the winter card. No problem getting around in good time even though some of the fairways & greens crisscrossed a little. If your in the area don’t discount this 9 hole cracker!

Seek it out!

Played this course a couple of times now & highly recommend it. It’s quite hilly & no buggy’s available so eat your weetabix. Some really testing holes but also a couple of driveable par 4s. Keeping out the rough is key to good scoring. Also make sure you carry a GPS, there’s no distance markers anywhere.

Little beauty

Don’t be put off by the par 68 it’s got some long par 4s & 3s. Quite a few blind shots but didn’t lose any balls for a change. We got round as 2 ball in just under 3 hrs but there’s a couple off holes that crossover each other so on a busier day I think more like 4 would be the norm. Give it a try.

Tricky

Quite a few blind shots it’s the hills your climbing. Some real toughT shots we used a buggy so could drive up the holes to see our line. Make sure you take a few xtra balls in the bag.

Don’t miss it.

Pro, members & green staff all helped us out on the day. Tricky lies all over the place so have a think about your shots. Easy to go OB 5,7 & 8. Back 9 favours big hitters & gives the best views from the course.

Worth a try.

Pro was very helpful on arrival & with works ongoing on the greens he let us go around to play the 3 holes we had to bypass. Was in great condition with recent works the greens running true & fast.

Try Blackpool.

Turned up in the pouring rain which let us get off early as several members got back in their cars. After 3rd hole it was brolleys away. Good layout & pace of play no problem. Watch out for the rough it’s thicker than it looks from the tee. Lost a couple of balls that looked ok from the t shot. Club house only had 1 staff on when we got back in & we left after sitting almost 20 mins without any sign of service.(COVID time)

Was disappointed with the state of the greens but on the whole course was in good condition. We started off ok but after 4 holes began to get held up due to a 2 ball 3 t times ahead of us that were obviously worse for wear with drink. With no marshalls on course they just shrugged shoulders when the group ahead of us caught them up & asked them to push on. I appreciate resorts like this get busy & for that reason I'd expect staff to drive round from time to time to get on top off slow play. It ended up being a 4.5 hr round for 2 of us.
