Very nice. Used Golfnow.com but the club didn't seem to know how to process this website.

Excellent facilities, clubhouse is very good with good size bar and restaurant area with very reasonable prices. The course itself is quite challenging although the holes aren't long they do make you think about your shots as the bunkers are placed in very strategic placements. The greens are in good condition and roll very well. The staff at the course are all very friendly and eager to help. Also onsite is an American golf shop for all your needs.

Good facilities and tough course with plenty of water, including some unintential standing water. It would be better to have some directional signs telling you where the next tee is. Also, pretty hilly so you need good strong legs!

Reviewed Sep 9 2015
Second time here but spoiled by having to use 14 temporary greens because all 18 had been cored,hollow tined, sanded and seeded just prior to our tee off. We were not advised by the desk and no partial refund of green fees was forthcoming. As it turned out the groundstaff were sweeping and reinstating the greens as we completed our round. Apart from this it is an enjoyable course.
