Not at its best
Would be a decent course but its let down by its condition.
Greens are poor in some places.
Otherwise would offer something decent.

Greens need work
Greens need a lot of work, the fairways are too inconsistent.
Food is disappointing unless you like rock hard pies and dry sausage baps.

Just ok
The fairways are a bit patchy especially around the greens making those
Little chip shots a bit tricky, greens are hard so you have to play short
And let it run on.

Very disappointed with the course. Greens were excellent but other than that very poor. Fairways very long, don't even bother with fairway woods. Weeds and grass growing in bunkers and rakes none existent.
A few months back the course was playing better than ever. After a warm summer the course is in urgent need of some TLC.

Reviewed Sep 20 2015
This course was quite a drive away for us but we knew that before the start and booked through tee off times, didn't have to wait on any tees which was a bonus, however, the tees were very poor, none of them were well maintained and most had slopes on them, fairways were okay and green okay for the money, major downfall was the public access to this course, we had numerous dogs crossing our holes and owners not a care in the world about it, we had to wait quite a bit of time for these intruders, spoiled what would of been an ok round. Good course for a laugh, not much else.
