The course was fairly easy, few hazards but unfortunately a group of 6 tracksuit clad idiots just pushed their way in front of our 2 ball and just behaved like morons, they would not let us play through and were taking at least 20 minutes a hole. This has put me off playing here again....

It’s a good 9 hole course if you’re a beginner or need to get in some practice, but like many are saying the greens need work but hey it’s a cheap friendly place where you can most of the time just turn up. However the price although reasonable at a weekend is only a couple of pounds cheaper than porthpean and I know where I’d rather be! Also my garmin approach didn’t pick up anything so I had to guess everything from the tee? Not sure if anyone has had an issue with this?

Great place to play nice and early. The main gentleman running the show is a very friendly chap that is always upbeat and welcoming with outstanding customer service skills. The food and drink is very reasonably priced and of a good standard. The only downside is the groundsman turning up and working on the green you are trying to play on to. Never experienced this at any other course, while I except that the course needs to be worked on, it's very distracting having someone de-weed whilst you are putting.
