This is one lovely course, and the day we played it it was in tremendous condition. The greens were amongst some of the nicest I've had the good fortune to play, although the slopes could be quite brutal if you weren't used to the pace of them. I wasn't. They beat me up.
The back 9 tends to get a little undulating, so not exactly an easy walk , but nothing that should prove too daunting for most people. The fairways also gets a little tight on occasions too, but on most of the holes you should at least find your ball, even if you don't have a shot.
The scenary just adds to the pleasure of playing here, and based on the cost we paid to play this is an awesome bargain. Highly recommended.

Interesting course, built into the hillside which means you have to think your way around the course. Tight in parts (too tight with overhanging branches) and not one for the longer hitters. Used the 5 wood quite a bit to good advantage. Course in good nick and the deal with hotel, dinner and use of spa/pool was a good one for £99

Well maintained course with nice pro shop and staff. Dealt with efficiently and politely. Course was dry due to recent weather conditions, understandably. This made the course difficult as you had to play for the slope of the fairways and the extra distance the course mad the ball travel. Greens were true and reasonably fast.Lacks signage as to where certain holes are and can be misleading especially hole 9 to 10....difficult to find! Otherewise a great day out.
