T time delays

Each time I book a T time there is a delay in the start time which results in NOT being able to finish 18 holes before dark. The management should consider providing more carts or reducing the green fees etc.

T time delays

Unfortunately there are often T time delays apparently based on limited availability of
golf carts. These delays in the afternoons
result in not being able to complete 18 holes
before dusk - just too dark to continue after
about 15 holes if T off after 3.30 p.m.

After the rain

Played just after the rains stopped. Course was playable but as expected wet patches on fairways with puddles which were avoidable. Greens were in good shape with no wet patches.

Start time delayed

Tee time delayed partly due to lack of availability of golf carts. This resulted in that we were only able to complete 14 holes by sunset.

Staff

Whereas previously the staff were exemplary on arrival, this time the female attendant on duty was disappointingly unhelpful on my round on Monday , February 06.

Unkempt golf course

The staff on check in seemed disinterested and unhelpful. No cafe or refreshment facility. Course was unkempt, no T boxes just markers on the fairways and areas of long grass and bald patches.

Rude Lady receptionist on checking in

I called several days before my T time to book a cart and paid online. However on check in the lady receptionist abruptly and rudely said that she had no record of my paid booking for a cart and was extremely reluctant to accept my disclosure. However, I insisted that I had booked and paid for a cart and she eventually relented and made a cart available.
I strongly suggest that all future bookings through GolfNow also includes bookings for carts to avoid a recurrence of the issue I had and also prevents the need to make an additional booking by calling the golf course to book a cart separately from the T time booking.
I was also harassed by the Marshal and told to speed up although there were no noticeable golfers nearby on the hole we were playing (4some).
