Course played very well in winter conditions, although not for a short hitter! Greens played well despite plenty of traffic. Rough cut short kept it fair. Always had great facilities the Garden course was in good condition too.

Good course, dry and fast takes some on the length away and it's quite wide off the tee. Shame there isn't any hole information on the tees or scorecard as a visitor it would be nice to know where you're going.

What a fantastic course ! Fairways and greens in excellent condition. Very well looked after course. Well run with a starter on the 1 st. Mature trees and water everywhere ! The only thing that lets it down are the bunkers. Loads of stones in them and the sand is rock hard. Four of us played on a Saturday afternoon at 1 pm for £16.50 each. Bargain !! We will be back very soon.

Despite heavy rain the night before the course was in excellent condition. We played 27 holes and had breakfast and lunch. Excellent value for money. There were some challenging par 5's and you need to be a long hitter as there was also a 450 yard par 4! The staff were very friendly and helped make it a memorable day. Well worth a visit.
