What the club says: A fantastic parkland - woodland course for all golfing abilities which offers more to the golfer than just a round, such as the outstanding natural scenary, especially the vast amounts of mature trees.

Poor greens

The shop is well stocked and the young chap in there was very polite and helpful.
Whilst we’ve had a lot of rain recently the course generally was mostly dry. The greens however were a joke. What ever possessed the green staff to think driving across them to feed them after all the recent rain leaving deepntyre tracks is bemusing!

The course is in great condition, with a challenging but fair layout. The greens are well-kept and the clubhouse and pro shop are excellent. The course drains really well and is almost always open. Overall, it's an excellent value for money.

Challenging course

First time visit to this course using a free round voucher. Overall the course was in very good condition although there the 10th hole was closed due to the range net being broken and it runs down the side of the range. To compensate the 11th par 5 has been converted into a par 4 & par 3, which is a shame as the 11th overall looks an awesome par 5 hole on its own. We were asked by the course marshall to let an older couple through as they were late to their tee time and playing a lot faster, he was very polite about it. The only issue we had as a first time visitor was the 2nd tee location was confusing so could do with a sign pointing in the direction. It was pointed out to us by a member but we'll know for next time!
Can't comment on the clubhouse facilities as all we had was an after round beer.
The practice driving range is superb with all bays having toptracer facilities but we didn't know there was a practice chipping/putting green until after our round due to it being away from the driving range, again a sign would be beneficial.
Overall an excellent course and we will definitely be visiting again.

Starting to soften


A fair bit of rain meant that the greens were holding quite a lot of water. On the lower part of the course it was a case of pick in place on the on the fairways and also the greens. We were only told that the ninth and 18th greens were temporary when we got there (which wasn't a problem) as they were doing drainage work. The lowering sun meant that both flight was a bit of an issue, luckily we had a fourball.

Good Greens - new layout

Annoyingly I had an issue with my golf watch not picking up the new layout of the course, which spoilt my enjoyment of the last 9 holes, greens were good.
