This is a municipal course which is generally in great condition. It has some excellent scenary and some challenging holes. The value for money is probably as good as it gets as its very cheap to play and easy to access. I've never been in the clubhouse so can't comment on that.

This is a good links course not for the faint hearted as it holds a lot of hills and the wind is always blowing in off the north sea

Course in excellent condition especially the greens. Although fairways are wide if you miss them the rough is perhaps too severe. Very hilly so electric cart would be a boon.

There is a lot of blind holes but this is a nice course and recommend giving it a go as long as it's not a windy day.
