Great as usual

Always like going here, not least because it is alongside the car park where I work!
Really nice course and a snip at the twilight rate.
Well kept and some nice holes. The 4th is my favourite, nice par 3 with something like 160 yard carry straight over a pond, pretty tough on a windy day.

Fantastic Course

I'd seen a number of reviews that said that this was a course worth visiting, and the worry is always that it can't quite match expectation. That wasn't the case here. The only disappointment today was the way I played it.

Tees, fairways and greens were in excellent condition, and the course has a lot of interesting and scenic holes to go with it. This isn't a flat course, so be prepared for a number of climbs, but it is worth the effort.

The fairways are mostly fairly forgiving, but there are a number of holes where par will be a very good score, and the course is certainly not a pushover.

My one tip, other than play here, is the big lake in front of the 11th green. I didn't see it until the same time my ball did.

ABSOLUTE GEM

We live very near and have never played the course before so deiced to do 36 holes Kevin the pro did question why 36 and after doing 36 i understand why.
What a great course and people very friendly club nice to sit out and have a nice cool hand pulled local ale too.The course wasn't too difficult to follow the greens were large and in great condition,All the infrastructure was very tidy and well kept. Its a good test of all ability and a nice walk.

Superb course not far from M1

This is a real quality golf course. Beautiful views, stunning holes (especially when sunny) with pristine fairways and greens. Be prepared to climb some hills though!

First time I've ever played here and I'll definitely be back. £20 when it's a four ball and the course was great. Lots of thinking holes and risk and reward. Thoroughly enjoyable.
