An excellent course spoiled by the poor condition of the greens (apparently caused by sprinkler failure during the recent dry spell). The course was immaculate and a pleasure to play on despite the torrential downpours.

Very good course. Good length with testing but not unnecessarily penal course. Greens being treat at the moment and need some water.
Good twilight offer.

This is a testing course from the very first hole! There are plenty of 'ravines' to hit over and stray shots are punished by thick rough, and the meandering brook that traverses the course. However, the greens are excellent and run true and are not too overly undulating which enables the golfer to pull back his/her shots. A new 9 holes have recently been introduced (2 years old now) and are bedding in well.
The club house is welcoming and food and beverages are served almost daily. A new shop has also recently opened which supplies everything one would want.

Probably played the course at it's worst time. It was extremely wet and very boggy in places. A course I would imagine in the summer, that tests golfers of all levels.
Hope to return when the weather picks up

Really friendly course but not a parkland as suggested in some descriptions. Back nine opens up but is a little bit backwards and forwards. Some nice holes though and they make everybody feel very welcome. Greens too concrete like for my liking and fairways way too close together especially on the first few holes.

Great course but a bit hilly and when it's windy the course can be a little harder to play because most holes go in to the wind.

I don't really have much positive to say about the course. The greens are so fast and slopey it's like playing crazy golf. Combined ridiculous pin placements and the condition of the course, all in all it wasn't a pleasant 5 hours, even if it was free! The course just seems to be the same repetitive holes back and forward on hills with the exception of some holes where you take your life in your own hands as fairways cross.
Finally, least said about the catering the better. Let's just say the art of making rice pudding is certainly lost on those in the kitchen.
