Course in fantastic condition for time of year. Still believe this course to be the best course in the area, especially in winter.

Lovely course in a tranquil setting with very little road noise. Having played many courses this September I can honestly say this is in the finest condition I have experienced in Essex thus far (including Channels, Three Rivers and The Warren). Twilight green fee deal of £13 on teeofftimes represents excellent value for money. The only criticism would be that the tees could do with more signage (there was no course map on the scorecard). Overall, a very pleasant experience!

This was a very good course the only thing that let it down was no course info when teeing off you can't tell where your going or how far. Good greens and good fairways bunkers not the best
