excellent greens
I was impressed with the greens, smooth and fast.Fairways were dry but a little bit muddy, as expected this time of year.
Great bar looking over the 9th and 18th greens.
Super friendly pro shop staff.

Tough Back Nine
Only played the back nine due to lack of Time. Tough for a high handicapper like me. Very hilly and tight. Scenic though and good greens. Pro friendly and helpful. Would like to return and play the whole course.Reviewer Rating

Great condition in general but the greens were quick in places and were not running true.

Tricky but lovely course
Played course 3 times over 3 days. Narrow fairways, plenty of trees and hills made it a bit intimidating for round 1 but after that the challenge was very enjoyable.(Round played: Jun 2017 - Score: 95 Handicap: 18.2)

Fantastic golf course, not the longest but with narrow-ish fairways and tricky pin positions makes for a very enjoyable round. The only problem I have had there so far is hotel guests not offering any golfing etiquette and letting faster groups play through.

Reviewed Jan 4 2015
A very nice course, a little tightly packed in with just a few too many short par 4s although the 600yrd par 5 16th makes up for them, other than that a really good test of golf, the rolling fairways are tight with undulating greens. The back 9 is excellent. Played in early January so a little wet in places but I think this would make an excellent society venue, very friendly with great facilities will definitely be back.

A very nice course. Tree lined the whole way round with nice use of the rolling hills. Some tight fairways mixed with good use of water hazards.
Greens were quite slow but didn't really matter that much.
Only one down side is some of the tee boxes were not flat which is a bug bear of mine. Apart from that it's a good place to play.
I would play there again when I'm in that part of the world !!!!
