Reviewed Sep 2 2011

members are very rude, had incidents with 2 different members.... course is ok, there is no 'rough' so mean t shots can be wayward and little punishment. front 9 are basicallly the same holes .... very boring. back 9 much better apart from a 200 yard par 4 which is basically a par 3. club house is shabby. overal ok decent value for money £15 at certain times. no stock in the proshop at all. but kept in good condition bar the leaves which as mentionned makes finding t shots that are on the fairway difficult to find.

Good to be back

But it’s not quite recovered from the heavy rains of winter & still plenty of casual water on or close to the fairways, bunkers full of water, greens that have been treated & prepped but not quite ready & still slow & uneven roll.
All in all it’s a scenic course with good challenging holes but would have preferred to know the current condition & given full charges are levied I’m not sure I wouldn’t have deferred returning if I’d known the condition of the course.

Nice course but too expensive

This course is setting itself up as a pay and play, but charged £40 for a Friday morning. That is way too expensive for what is a good but not great course. Wouldnt go back at that price

Course getting better, pace of play getting worse

Course conditions have improved enormously over the last few years as well as the new clubhouse and range. Let down my painfully slow pace of play. Takes 6 hours on average to play at weekends. Need to space out tee times by 5 more minutes since it isn't a members course (or have fewer 4 balls)

NIce enough

Its a nice course and very good value for £20 after 3pm, I just wish we had been wrned about severe hollow tining which meant putting was a bit of a joke.

Bad facilities

They are carrying out a club house refurbishment at present and will take up to Christmas to be complete.
Unable to visit the 19th hole for after drinks and food .

Well priced

Well priced for a weekend round.
Some greens were very wet and while we have had some extended showers, they appear to be holding up oK.
Covid restrictions in clubhouse so difficult to score higher.

Just okay

Its quite nice, quite forgiving and okay. However, greens were very slow and didn't hold at all and the bunkers had grass growing in them. Shame really

Good and challenging course but limited facilities in terms of food and drink. There is a pro shop for drinks and snacks and a bar upstairs but this seems only open during core hours. Great course for golf but not great if you want a meal after.
