The course has obviously had a lot of work done on it with areas that were previously (very) rough now being cut back and allowing wayward shots to be found and played. The layout of the course has also been swapped round since we last played which was slightly confusing for some of our group who wandered off and teed up on the wrong tee box.
Despite the heavy rain on the day we enjoyed the game and are playing there again this week. My brother is even considering membership of the course.

Very nice course

Played on a Tuesday morning, the course was quiet. It is well maintained and the greens were firm and fast after recent dry weather. Although the course is pretty flat there is a bit of a walk between two or three holes. The layout has changed so my Apple watch and my playing partners Garmin lost track on the 15th. Very friendly staff and members. We?ll worth a visit.

Top Greens

New green keeper last year and what a difference he and his team have made this is going to be a great course if the local idiots stay off it and dont vandalise the greens well done to all staff for the great work so far

Great value and very peaceful.

The course was in good nick and a ?15 green fee was excellent value. My only gripe would be the condition of the greens which were not up to the the standard of the rest of the course.

fluffy greens

this course could be so much better with a large investment of cash and a little re jigging. The greens today were very fluffy and very slow, green keepers were out trimming the rest of the course that was in quite good nick. Tee boxes really need some attention
