Played On 02/05/2017Nice layout, shame about the weather
Enjoyed my round on this interesting layout, despite the poor weather that proceeded it.
I think it is testament to the course that, despite it being so wet underfoot that at one point I managed to plug my ball whilst taking a drop from a plugged lie, I still found this a pleasant game of golf.
No two consecutive holes are the same and although not overly long it uses the slopes, trees, contouring and bunkering to keep it challenging.
It had rained heavily the 24 hours prior to our round, and although it had been dry for an hour or two before teeing off, it was clear the course had taken a pounding and was going to play wet. They had 16 full greens on and probably half of the tee boxes, but since it was a wet winter weekend this seemed like a fair result. I felt it was good value and would definitely like to come back in a dry day in summer.
We didn't use the bar or restaurant on this instance, but it looked like a fair sized facility.
Only issue we had was difficulty getting access to the locker room for retrieving shoes after the round. No one in the club house seemed to know the code for the locker room door, so make sure there will be someone around when you come before leaving anything in the clubhouse.
