We wanted a course suitable for a 12yr old to play and with several short par 4s and broad fairways this fitted the bill.
Good value at £9 for 10 holes.
Two tees were poor: a mat on the 4th and another with more stones than grass, but with the ball teed up that doesn't really matter.
The fairways were wet, holding much more water than other local courses, but we just played preferred lies. There are some challenging shots across the tree lined River Conder on holes 3, 4 and 5 and a great view from the 8th green.
We didn't get in any bunkers, but they were a bit of a joke: tiny, shallow and with most of the sand washed out, but who plays a course for the bunkers?
The greens were true, fairly flat and rather slow.
The clubhouse is still under construction and the place seems to be run on a shoestring e.g. an honesty box to collect the green fees on a Sunday morning.
I would recommend this course for juniors who have had some lessons and can hit at least 150yds, and we saw several other father and son groups.
