Highly Recommended 2018
What the club says: Both our championship courses were designed by Robert E Cupp, one of Jack Nicklaus’s course architects. The East Course was specifically designed with championship golf in mind. Measuring 7138 yards from the gold tees, this is a formidable test of golf. Unlike the West, the East has two loops of nine holes bringing you back to the Clubhouse after each nine. The West Course was formally known as ‘The Members Course’,and is often regarded as the more scenic of the two courses, but is certainly tighter and more undulating. Surprisingly at 7154 yards it is slightly longer than the East.

Reviewed Feb 22 2019 by Andy W - rated 4 out of 5 West is best?
I only got to play the West course, as the East Course was shut.A really nice course, well laid out with some challenging holes & a bit of water.
Check out the 10th, a good drive down past the trees leaves you a challenging approach over water.
The course was in great condition, the greens superb & the hotel was excellent as well.
All in all a great package.

Excellent layout. Long but with generous fairways. Challenging green complexes with plenty of bunkering and large undulating greens. Need to drive and putt well!(Round played: Nov 2018 - Score: 82 Handicap: 8.2)

Reviewed Aug 27 2018 by Ralph P - rated 5 out of 5 Both courses well worth playing. West has a bit more variety than the East but both are excellent and well worth going round. Hotel it also decent both in terms of room and food, drink, though the latter are a bit steep. Captive audience etc.

Reviewed Aug 10 2018 by Richard M - rated 5 out of 5 Very nice - ideal for a stay over with golf!
enjoyed it very much. Only got to play the East course twice as West was shut. My playing partner summed it up (who plays off 6) as he concluded he will definitely be back but not just for the golf.....to stay over (great deal ?135 so twin room, excellent dinner and breakfast -great deal- use of spa/pool etc) so he sees the overall package as the value - not the golf on its own. The East course had some nice holes. some very unique like #1, 7, 10, 13, 16 and especially 17 is the standout hole. Greens are very fast. Too many downhill putts went racing past! :-) I'd definitely play it as a resort play/stay overCourse (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Aug 6 2018 by Kevin V - rated 3 out of 5 quality with a lack of class
My friends and I have been going to this complex for the last 7 years and always enjoyed it. This year seemed to be going the same way as the last 6 when we played the East course on the Saturday which was in great condition. We used the hotel facilities to relax after a few beers and all seemed fine. The food in the evening was nice, then after a few more beers we went to bed dreaming of what might have been and what we hoped for on the Sunday.After a buffet breakfast we headed to the pro shop to get tokens and score cards for the West course. After a good warm up we headed for the first tee. The starter said their had been some maintenance in the week but did not know what they had done. After some good tee shots we got to the 1st green where it become apparent what the maintenance had been, they had aerated the greens, IN AUGUST!!!! This was a complete shock and with no advanced warning, very annoying. Their was no email, no warning from the pro shop and no warning from the starter although their was a hint. After the round I approached the pro shop and asked why we had not been told, to say the member of staff I spoke to need some customer training skills is an understatement. All of us were very down after this and it truly spoilt what otherwise was a great weekend. I would advise anyone going their to check their maintenance program before you go

Quite open for the most part, but hard to find your ball if you hit it in the deep rough. Fairways were in good condition for the time of year and the greens held a correct approach shot.(Round played: Jul 2018 - Score: 83 Handicap: 9.7)

The fairways and greens were pretty good considering the rain we’d had and the time of year (quite impressive really), elsewhere it was very soft and hard walking. We stayed and played and got a great deal, there was a little doubt whether we’d get out on the second day and a miserable marshal could have done with an exercise in guest relations as to manage expectations but we did play and conditions were better than day one. Worth a visit but I’d suggest a stay and play package to ensure value.(Round played: Feb 2018 - Score: 89 Handicap: 16.1)
