Beautifully designed course which is maintained to a superb standard

From the first tee to the eighteenth green the county course failed to disappoint. The course was maintained to an excellent standard, with pure greens, sandy bunkers and the fairways were consistent and also very well kept. I played pretty well, in part due to the beautiful conditions and great weather, shooting a 4 under 69.

Flat challenging course.

Delight to play. Open but not easy by any means and at around 6600 yards, a good work out. Excellent greens with consistent pace. Excellent facilities too
