What the club says: Founded in 1894 on land owned by the Church, the parkland course has retained much of its original character whilst being updated to keep up with the demand in the course.

Lovely course in great setting

A challenging course with some long difficult par 3's. Course was very dry which made the greens fast and difficult to judge as a number of opening holes have OB behind them. Very enjoyable day playing in Annondata competition, home club very well supported by members following the matches.

(Round played: Sep 2019 - Score: 88 Handicap: 12.5)

Worth a visit

Friendly staff and a good course with three back to back par 5s early on to get you going. Greens run fast so judging putts is challenging if you are not used to this

Not a very challenging course (my handicap 16) fairly straight forward ho!es.
I was disappointed to have paid full fee for temporary greens , with the 7th hole not playable at all! Pro in shop only said a couple of holes in temp greensP
First time I was going to leave game early due to course,rather than my game!!
Sorry I would not go back
