Greens are woeful
A picturesque course with an adventurous layout ruined by the poor quality of the greens. Hard, patchy and bobbly it was impossible to judge a putt correctly. I'm not the best ball striker but my putting normally saves me and 6 3-putts on this course took the confidence out of my putting and really ruined the course for me.Reviewer Rating

Greens ?
There has been some kind of disease on the greens that has made them pretty much unplayable. Other than that the course needs some water on the fairways as they are v dry and cracked in places. They have dropped the price while the greens are so poor but avoid for a while if you want to sharpen your putting game. We played gimmes from a clubs length but putting was still a lottery(Round played: Sep 2018 - Score: 91 Handicap: 18.5)

Greens are a mess
Overall course is in ok condition, however the greens are ruined..they are obviously trying their best to encourage the grass to grow.. but currently I've seen better greens at council run pitch and putt course.6months of rest,rain,sun and a little bit of love and care.. these greens will be back to their vibrant colours once again..!

The new owners have started to breathe life back into this course. They have cleared out a lot of the dead rough around the lake and ponds, put more sand in the bunkers, new tee box markers etc. All they need to do now is employ a good head green keeper to breathe life into the greens.
