Greens in fantastic condition, quite fast compared to other courses around the area. If your a big hitter there’s quite a few driveable par 4s on this course which makes it fun!! Only negative is that it’s quite hilly and there’s quite a few blind holes but there clearly marked where to hit your drive for best position into the green. Love this course!!!

Played shirland a few years back, wasn’t too bad but doesn’t drain well in the winter so always avoided. I have to say for £14 a round with these greens is crazy, it should be £5 a round. The greens are absolutely awful, never seen greens like this in 30 years of playing golf. Massive bare patches, grass seed all over the place, it’s like putting on pebbles it’s that bad, totally unplayable. What didn’t help was that the green keepers followed me and my dad around nearly the whole round, even cutting around the green when we was putting out It totally spoiled our round. At the moment I would avoid this course like the COVID 19 and go to another course or stay at home!! There’s a lot better value else where. Sorry shirland but this is shocking.

Front nine is the best and a good view from the back 9. Always enjoy playing here, the greens are fast for this time of year and only get better. Some challenging holes with a few really easy holes makes it an enjoyable for the high handicapper but challenging enough for the low. My favourite course around this area for sure!!
