Nice course

Course needs a bit of tidying ie tees were rough and the bunkers needed a bit of attention but overall a nice course .

Enjoyable course and well maintained throughout. Very playable. Played it twice and it does seem to have a lot of traffic on the course - the car park is always rammed suggestion its very very popular and has lots of members! Feels a touch impersonal if I be honest - we felt like one of many sheep going through reception and bar. However the mens has a relaxation pool/hot bath afterwards and that alone would bring me back. More golf clubs should facilitate one!

The changing rooms are the thing that desperately need a revamp. The course is now looking and playing great but the changing rooms need a facelift and the japanese bath is no longer the feature it used to be. It's not as hot as it used to be and it desperately needs refusbishment

Reviewed Feb 17 2013

Booked for 3 ball on line. £20 instead of £30. Tried to add a 4th player when at the club. They wanted to charge £30 for the 4th player since he didn't use the online deal. We said we'd amend the online booking to add the 4th player and get the £20 deal. They were ok with that. The new owners seem to be a bit too Beaurocratic. This on a day when there were about 4 groups out on the course and it was raining with the prospect of sleet and snow. They obviously don't need the money if they are happy to risk losing a sale through such inflexiblity

Course is currently in lovely condition - new owners clearly spending some money! It's great that non members can now play the New Course - the 17th to the A greens is one of the nicest par 4's I've seen. At £39 a round it's fair value

Reviewed Jul 1 2008

Old Course: Nice layout & smooth greens make this an attractive course to play. Quite undulating.

New Course: 2 greens per hole (winter & summer) make this an all year round course, but for members only.

Had a 6 month spell as a member a couple of years ago, but being predominantly japanese owned & run didn't make it easy to find playing partners.
