First time on the course, was very wet but greens played well. Very narrow and if busy then I could imagine a bit hairy as you are driving over other people's fairways.
Nice and cheap as only £10 midweek round, will come back again but when less wet.

This is an excellent course , kept in very good condition , there are some holes that cross , there's a map on the back of the scorecard and using it I had no problem navigating around , not to long but requiring accuracy and with a couple of tee shots and one second or third shot over a river it's quite exciting to play , it cost a tenner on a weekday which is an absolute bargain , the greens are the best around here , lovely and true runnng

Great golf course with some real challenging holes, can't believe it's only £10 during the week and £15 on the weekend. Much better than other local courses and cheaper! Great pro shop with lots of stock and a friendly professional, well worth a game.

A very narrow course with a lot of tree lined fairways.
Beware of the river and the water hazards around some of the greens

Will not be revisiting.
Even through the course is in really good condition there are other factors that bring this club down.
We turned up with aa 3-ball with a 8:50am tee off. In front of us was a 4-ball, all members, then a 13 year old who plays off 14 handicap, and the 4 ball didn’t let him tee off first and also said that he wasn’t allowed to play through. Stubborn members being ridiculous. He joined our 3 to make a 4 and the round itself took forever. The rate at which these people where playing can be described as bloody slow
The course itself is in really good condition, but the greens are too small, and if you’ve never played it before, be prepared to play with no yard markers and some greens hidden away so you are playing a blind shot.
A lot of the holes overlap so you have to wait for people to tee off or for people to putt which adds more slow play.
Lastly, and this was the worst thing about the experience, we stood at the 10th with a drivable 260 par 4 in fron of us.
Myself and y friends we talking waiting for them to move from the green, when from our amazement, this 12 year old has only tee-dd off with his 5 wood and nailed one straight through the green, whizzing past this guys head.
As we walked down the guy approached the kid, screamed at him for what he did. I understand his anger but the boy was 13 years old. Before I could even intervene I was told to “shut my F**cking mouth” and “I expect this kind of thing from these clowns”. Later on in the round I received an apology but it had totally ruined the day.
Even though I played pretty well I didn’t enjoy my time spent here and I don’t think you will either
