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

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.

Amazing

The overall layout of the course was brilliant, can’t see how people give it bad reviews on here friendly staff and a greenkeeper who obviously knows what he is doing, greens were mid pace but with the weather we’ve had what do we expect, was a little untidy around the lakes but you can see they’re working on that, bar staff were very friendly! Both pros were helpful chatty and made sure we were off the right few so we didn’t get held up! Not everyday you get that! Would recommend to anyone for the money there’s not much better.
