Great weekend, on the best day of the year so far. Greens were a little sandy but excellent course with great weather.

We arrived to play the Lee Westwood Filly course and the service was second to none and the staff could not have been more helpful. The course has every facility you could need and the course itself was in excellent condition. There was no rush to play as all tee off times are spaced out to avoid queuing up at tee boxes. Greens were in excellent condition while it is an expensive round it is worth experiencing.

Reviewed Aug 2 2016

Very challenging course that is well looked after. There are 3 drivable par 4's to tempt the long hitter but with water and out of bounds around the holes you would need to hit the perfect shot otherwise have to lay up with an iron off the tee. There are some long par 5's that are hard to hit in 2 shots expecially into the wind. Would defiantly recommend this course to anyone wanting to challenge their score. The driving range facillities are probably the best Iv seen yet.

Golfshake Team ReviewWith two courses to choose from in the Filly Course and the Colt Course, you really cannot go wrong at Close House. Both the courses offer an exceptional challenge of golf, with the Colt Course arguably edging the Filly Course. Of the course the facilities are second to none, and the clubhouse is the perfect place to relax after your round.

Stunning setup. Played Colt course in pristine condition. Short and tight, rough is unforgiving. Greens hard and fast. Some fantastic tee shots. Get a buggy as some steep hills.
