Coming along. Needs some TLC
The greens have been snaded and spiked and need a little mor time to bed in. Some bare patches on the tees and muddy spots on fairway. However in good condition and will be a fine course to play in summerReviewer Rating

Immaculate and fast greens
Course was in pretty good nick. A bit muddy on the fairways and plenty of tyre treads which doesn't help but shows the high level of maintenance. Greens were fast but at the same did not break anywhere as near as summer. Tees were good and evidence of work around bunkers with some being GUR.Reviewer Rating

Sandy greens but in great shape
Shame that greens already dressed. But still the putts were true if not slower that expected. Wish people would use the seed supplied to fill in their divots on the Par 3's. Oh and put their broken tees into the "bins" provided. Not much sand in the bunkers but if you hit the fairways then the ball worked as had.Definitely worth the moneyReviewer Rating

Little gem of a course!
Played the week before clock change and considering coming off winter and a load of wet weather the course was in great nick. Tee boxes and Greens were in great condition for time of year, and fairways were good which is a credit to grounds staff. We really liked the layout and flow of the course. Yes there’s a walk back at 14/15 but there really isn’t a weak hole and quite a few standouts. Particularly liked the run from 5 to 9. With 5 a fun short par 4 down hill where longer hitters can go for green), 6 a testing par 4, 7 and 9 both excellent par 3s and 8 a cracking par 5 which offers some risk/return if you can hit long enough. The course then gets harder for 10-13 before throwing in some very scoreable holes to finish. Although it was closed for off season the halfway hut is in a great spot, we’ll be back for a mid round hot dog and a drink next time! The course I believe is 100 years old this year and although there’s no fanfare the clubhouse was a delight inside with all the history on the walls and cosy seating in the bar. Shout out to the staff who were great from pro shop to club house. End of round Guinness after a wet finish was heaven! Will definitely be back on next visit to East Sussex.(Shot 77 off 3 handicap, partner 86 off 18)

Good local course
Not been here for some time and pleasantly surprised at price and condition considering the amount of frost and rain. Green in top condition but a bot slow but again that is due to rain. Didn't visit the bunkers but some had standing water. Tees were excellent and all in play.Reviewer Rating

Playing here for second time on a society day. Well looked after by the club. Course in good condition. Obvs dry in places given lack of any rain recently but no issue to playability. Greens were a bit slower than expected but were fine. Interesting layout though some of the internal OOB is a little odd in places. Well worth playing and will head back in due course.

Never played here before. Really nice course. Quite tight in places and some tee shots require you to shape a shot for ideal result. Greens were good but slower than I expected so never really got the pace of them. Overall was in great condition. Could do with a bit more signposting in places as a no of holes come off from a single path and aren't necessarily where you would expect. Nice clubhouse. Food was ok but nothing special. Would like to play it again.

Really nice course - very challenging, good variation, all in fantastic condition. Particularly enjoy the 18th with the green surrounded by bunkers. They have no tee booking for visitors but have played a dozen times and never waited to tee off. My only beef is the cost - they've recently massively increased the green fees - I was quoted £38 for late on a Sunday afternoon when I probably wouldn't have been able to squeeze in 18 holes! Shame, they seem to have decided they don't want visitors. I went to Lindfield and paid £12.50 instead.

A good, well maintained course. The back nine is much harder than the front nine, and the two par fours at 11 and 13 are especially tricky. Greens and fairways were in great condition and it was enjoyable to have a good range of clubs taken off the tee.

Lovely golf course, greens are in excellent condition and rapid, shame a few people don't understand what a pitch mark repairer is.
The only thing that lets this course down is the bunkers, or as we decided to refer to them, craters, dust filled indentations in the ground, sand was rarely seen making shots onto the rapid greens impossible to control.

This is a pleasant little course, not very long but testing all the same, needs careful consideration where you're putting the ball to get round in a low score.
The greens showed no sign of disease as the above post states, they seem to have resolved this issue. However the greens were pretty slow, this may be due to the continual rain we're having at the moment.
Bunkers are very average.
