Great fun and a good challenge

We booked online and arrived to a very quiet and friendly greeting on arrival. Course had had a little damage due to mower issues but the course was still a real treat. Longest hole is about 135 yards. we played the course twice and really enjoyed the day - even though it was very hot.

My son also got a hole in one which was the cherry on the cake. A very enjoyable afternoon -thank you.

Lovely course - some players need to read up on etiquette - hope they were not members!

A lovely course and hard working grounds staff. Nice greens and it looks like there is going to be some real investment over the coming months. Working hard with outside facilities for refreshments in the lovely weather.
I HAVE NEVER FELT THAT I HAVE NEEDED TO ADD COMMENTS BEFORE BUT >>

Followed a slow 2 ball but then found out why - as they were let through by a four ball. Never seen such slow play
For example : - when playing a par three - it took one player 3 shots to get into a green side bunker - and then 7(seven!!) shots to get out before three putting on the green whilst the other 3 looked on before holing out themselves. - astonished!

We were then accused by the pair following us of jumping into the course at 10 because that was the only reason that there was slow play. I took offence at this!

Whilst we were playing the same par three a single player walked up our hole and then was standing on the next tee when we got there and said" I have a hospital appointment and so i am overtaking you !" No please or thank you.

Must have been a bad day - never had this happen before or are there local rules that we did not know about? Motorbike trolleys aside! lovely course and very pleasant staff in the pro shop and on the course!

Great greens and an interesting day

Friendly pro shop considering the lock down etc.

Relatively short course but challenging as you really needed to be straight off the tee. A windy day meant that the course was playing longer than the card.

nor busy and it seemed that there was no pressure to keep to the order of the holes. Considering the course is near the centre of Northampton it had a very country feel.

What a great day

Superb conditions and friendly welcoming staff - the course is going through changes with a new clubhouse planned and the old one being sold privately. Really great experience on a shorter (par 66) But challenging Course in a beautiful part of the world. Well worth a visit from Glasgow and we shall be back. Cannot recommend it highly enough especially the 15th - a short hole through a 10 metre gap in the trees!,

Great location and efficient - if potentially a little pricey

Always a super round as quiet and potentially empty.

Good condition and friendly pro shop. Never been into clubhouse as always played towards the end of the day and clubhouse very quiet and often closed when we have finished. go for the golf as the holes are just great - greens always receptive.

Friendly course with interesting holes

A warm greeting and a good clubhouse. The course was a little short , and we were chased a little by competing groups but a good day all round , finished with a good meal at a fair price

the rain came - finally!

A nice round om a course suffering from lack of water except on the greens. The greens were a little long for protection and to avoid drying out. I like most of the holes especially 6,7,9, 10 and all from 11 home! Lovely views from 14 and a challenging hole to boot!
We will return once the green of the fairways returns - but we had a very quiet and enjoyable afternoon - and a good price too- thank you!

Great views difficult fairways

A good day for the money. Great greens and ground staff some fairways rather difficult with a trolley as very undulating and hard.
Overall would go back with friends for the experience but not for a while
