Parkland course was very wet and muddy,- drainage is poor on this course, which did effect the enjoyment, however the Woodland course, you wouldnt have know that we have had any rain as this was in great condition.
The course normally is a joy to play on any of the 3 courses

Always Open

One of only a few courses open in all this wet weather. Considering all the rain this course has three loops of nine and can spread players out. The Woodland nine was the least wet and muddy of the 3 nines. All nines were on main tees and greens but a lot of the fairways were extremely wet and very muddy in certain areas but overall playable, just.

Great course options, nice set up, very friendly. Playable even after all the recent rain, need to play in the summer to enjoy the bunkers, but still a good day out even in March.

Never shuts. Always on main tees and greens. In fact it's up to you to play or not.
Course overall was in very good condition considering a weeks worth of rain with excellent pace on the greens. There was a notice saying all bunkers out of play due to the rainfall and having lost a ball in one you can understand why

Lovely Setting

Course was in good order considering the rain we have had. Greens ran well and quite quick, fairways and tees in good shape. Bunkers were still holding a lot of water and one or two like mini swimming pools. Great location different loops of nine giving a great test for all handicaps

This complex is well worth a visit

All three of the nine hole course are in very good condition even though there is a completely new irrigation system being installed it has minimal disruption.

Excellent Course

We played this club during a 2 night/3 round stay.
The greens were probably the best I’ve played on in this country. We played on the day of the club championships and came across some brilliant pin positions. There was interesting holes on all three of the nines. Only downside was a five and a half hour round on the Monday, caused by a visiting society/group. The course does need a marshall. Bunkers were out of play due to recent heavy rain damage, but this didn’t really detract from our enjoyment.

Great course, well worth the fees
3 nine holes that can be challenging
slighty boggy in places due to the amount of rain over the last 24 hours but playable

Always enjoy this course

Considering all the bad weather we have had the course was in a pretty good condition. Only disappointment was the amount of pitch marks players left on the greens. What happened to repair your own and one other!!!
