Taking the micky today

I've played Garons a few times over the years and enjoyed it, from the days when it was just starting to a more mature course now. The three nines are interesting and with the wind and some water quite challenging. But...on Good Friday, they packed the course and charged way over the odds. I realise they may be trying to raise extra income but to do this with blatant disregard for paying customers is a poor show. Waiting 20-25 minutes at the 10th, and then easily 5-10 minutes on every hole from therein spoilt it. Poor Show Garons.

A good varied course, some interesting holes with some long par 4s, only nets to warm up in no range

First time playing I really enjoyed. Lots of different hole shapes and lots of big humps on the fairways. Will come back

Nice little course

I played with a friend who is a member. Some really great holes and a few boring ones but all in all a nice little local course if you're in the area or looking to play somewhere new. Friendly members and good facilities.

Good local track

Reasonably priced, greens too firm at the moment! Deseprate for some rain or to water them, very hard to get anything to hold at all!

Nice course, lovely place to visit

Nice flat course, quite long but the fairways run a bit. Good greens, fair tee boxes. Lovely clubhouse, decent little shop. Friendly staff. Really enjoyed the day.

Worth the price

Very good course but long and challenging. Well looked after but can be pricey, can be found on GolfNow.co.uk to get cheap round.
