I love playing this course. It is a beautiful park land course that plays right past the castle itself. All the hole are very different and will punish any wayward shots. The greens though are really disapointing at the moment, with small bare patches and an uneven surface, putting is really a lottery.

Very mossy and the greens were pretty bad for the time of year.

Played this course for the 1st time recently had 2 for 1 vouchers so value very good for nine holes 1st hole blind tee shot over a ridge green elevated,5th hole very open tee shot with the castle as a backdrop to the green 8th hole water lay in wait around the 190/200 yard mark overall a nice course would recommend to anyone who enjoys good scenery and a lovely set out golf course.

Fairways have taken a bit of a beating but the greens were in excellent condition.
£9.99 for 9 holes can't go wrong!

I was lured to this course by the chance to play a course in the grounds of "The most beautiful castle in the world".
I found the condition of the course to be good and found a couple of the holes quite challenging.
I didn't like the fact that you have to cross a road and back again just for two holes and found it a long walk between the 4th and 5th holes; but these are only minor niggles.
The club hose is a chalet with a small 'essentials' shop and no bar, but there is a pub just next to the course entrance.
Overall I think this is a fair 9-hole course with nice views as you pass the castle, but a round is the same price as my local 18-hole (£18).
I'd play it again, but only to try and nail that triple bogey (or three) I made
My rating: Don't travel too far to this one, but good if you are local or planning other activities in the area on the day.
