Really disappointing, uncut tee boxes, half the fairways uncut and played like semi rough and as for the greens they were absolutely rubbish, what a waste of time and money with people bunking on and playing as 5 and 6 balls.Reviewer Rating

Course was extremely wet. Should probably have been closed to be honest. That days play will have made ruined most of the fairways for the next few weeks

If it was free,it would still be a waste of time!
The course (that name is a disgrace to any other golf course btw) is in one of the most dilapidated states I've ever had the misfortune to witness.The tee areas (haha! Tee areas) are overgrown slopping rubbish plots of land that haven't had any attention paid to them in many a month! There?s no sand of any description in the bunkers,just overgrown weeds.The fairways have longer grass than most rough areas on many other courses and the drainage is an absolute joke.Do not play this course.You?d be better spending your money at a crazy golf than wasting four hours there!Reviewer Rating

Played this course recently, both me and my playing partner where saddened to see that we Must have missed the world rally stage held on the 'fairways'. I sunk a few putts, and by this I mean I sunk whilst taking a few putts. We braved all 18 holes, including the holes on the other side of the world's noisiest motorway, unlike the greenkeeper/s. No buggies available at this course but sit down lawnmowers could be provided so we would help the poor greenkeeper out. Together we spent £30 and it would be great if this money could be used to buy essentials such rakes or flags. Brown's (supposed to be greens) great although it was difficult putting with a total mud ball due to the lack of ball cleaners. Finally, I think I shot 66 after driving every single green although I can not be sure I did to the lack of scorecards (none present)
