Its a bit sad as I have played at Wokefield many times, mainly during summer months. I wanted to get a last round in before the second lockdown and decided to give it a go. My first round this year as the prices have more than doubled since the first lockdown. The pro shop did advsie it was very wet on the course and they were right! The fairways and rough were sodden and some holes areas were like farmers fields. We did have very wet weather a few days before and I assume there had been lots of traffic on the course. The overall condition was poor from tee to green and whilst not too busy the pace of play was very slow! A tactical error on my part. Resort courses are well know for their lack of attention and maintenance compared to private clubs and some PAP courses. It boasts being championship course but that is where it stops!

Course in great condition. Played as 1 ball for 14 holes. Stuck behind members comp...sadly they were a bit rubbish....typical overweight club golfers, played slow in 4 ball better ball format and were poor quality. Made for a very slow round and they were very deliberate about not lettng me play through. Would also add that pro shop person was pretty unfriendly. But worth noting I really like this course and the staff are normally great and members very polite and have perfect etiguette. Just had to be one of those days when the chumps were on the course!
