£20 for a buggy and £17 to play 18 holes of a 9 hole campsite course.
Only play when I leave it till last minute and want to take my child out on the course when my course is fully booked.
Checked before booking regarding the buggy due to me fetching my 5 year old who’s learning to putt.
Was met at the course with a no children on the course sign
Delay in teeing off waiting for the buggy to arrive.
Told LO had to stay in the buggy the whole way around.
Couple of greens were decent. Couple were horrifying, especially 7 which in places was over an inch thick.
General course was in fairly decent condition. 4 ball wouldn’t play me through which is always a bit naff so I missed out 4 holes and cut across.
No food after 2pm on a Sunday either which would’ve made a bad experience better.
Won’t be returning, which is a shame.

Played the Nicklaus early Sunday morning.
Reserved a buggy which came with complimentary water and tees, unfortunately the course was very wet so had to stick to the cart path only. This was a little inconvenient as I had a bad knee.
Fairway divots were freshly filled which was a nice touch.
Greens were true.
Marshall came round half way through to see how we were, also a nice touch.
Shame the bar wasn’t open with outdoor seating.

Don’t get me wrong this is a quality course.
Well maintained and in great shape, however the layout was poor with no signage to next tee, mainly off the 1st green we actually got lost.
Bunkers were like I’ve never seen before, like the designer didn’t know when to end.
Very challenging.
What ruined it for us was we were stuck behind a 4 ball (which we were fine with) and the group behind us phoned the pro shop to complain of slow play and the guy came out to us in a buggy (he was very embarrassed).but explained he had to be seen to be doing something about it.
18th is a great hole. Buildings are beautiful.
Unfortunately we felt it had a snobby feel to it.
Won’t be returning.

Arrived 20 minutes early for an 8:10 tee off slot.
Unfortunately didn’t get to look around as no one turned up until 8:05.
Fog spoiled the views but was still a beautiful course.
A few holes quite short, but enjoyable nevertheless.
A member approached me after 3 holes and offered to join me. His name was Tim.
Very friendly, chatty and nice company on a course I hadn’t played for 20 years.
Will definitely return.

Course was in great condition. Greens were consistent but pace of play was laborious, which altered shot choice and general course decision making.
Have played before in the winter and it was completely different. Not a bad thing though.
Can’t wait to play again.
