All in all a really good course, lovely clubhouse, glad i played it, but overpriced for sure and until some deals get reeled out i won't be back. They seem to want to keep it exclusive in a time when golf is all about being inclusive... It's just not a good enough course, but we'll see where it goes.

It's in good condition, except for the greens which are heavily sanded & therefore slow.
It's a nice lay out, with some good strategic bunkering & a few trees.
I particularly enjoyed holes 5 to 8 where there was a bit of water & you go up & down hill, but other than that the course was fairly flat.
A nice golf course, but I expected more

Get a course planner and a buggy
Roller coaster of a course. There are some holes (e.g. 14th) where you just don't know what you are facing unless you have a course planner (there are no pictures on the tees - unlike the filly).Its a course you come off thinking i'd love to play that again now I know what's going on.

meaning you're not unduly punished if you're only slightly off course. The greens were fast and true and with some sneaky pin positions it's easy to turn a simple short put into a bit of an ordeal. Great course and facilities but it's pretty pricey so it's not to suit all peoples pockets.

from a course of this calibre . The fairways played all of the 6308 yds. Club choice is always important , even more on this track as was choice of shot . Greens were true even and quite quick ,
The ball released smoothly on pitches and approach shots and ran cleanly on long lag puts .
An impressive course overall and I will return .
