Played the East Course (formerly Earl course). Played quite a few times in the past and its a course you go to if you cant get on anywhere else and was always cheap. Now £20 weekends and too much. They try to justify it by saying the course it better than it was but the bunkers werent that full of sand, a few looked like they should be GUR. They have cut the long rough shorter but there isnt that much of an improvement on the course. They clearly focus their attention on the more lucrative longer course

Now costing £15 for a midweek round at 4pm is a disappointment, used to be £6. Can play other, bigger courses for the same price. That said, the course is becoming in better condition, but not worthy of a £15 green fee.

Not really looked after as not the main course. Bunkers rock hard with not much sand. Owners tend to drive youngsters to a free hole and play, even if it holds you up.

Not played the Duke course but have played the Earl. Earl; No tee signs, direction signs or distance markers. No map or picture guide of holes available. Most fairways okay, greens seem reasonable. A bit of effort to improve would make a lot of difference. The layout of the course does not lend itself to choosing to do either just the front or back nine holes during twilight or when pushed for time - some clubs the first and last hole on each nine is by the club house - not here. Not a difficult course though (just as well as I am not very good!).

East Course
Played this course today, some positives but mainly negatives I’m afraid to say. First tee box has a net and metal pole in front of it that is very off putting. The greens on ALL holes were atrocious, not been rolled or cut and were very bumpy. Impossible to roll a decent putt. The fairways were also uncut as they were covered in daisys which take some time to regrow after cutting. Seems all the attention is given to the main course but they are still willing to take your money for a much less cared for course. Overall a disappointing day, best bit was the breakfast, that was spot on.Reviewer Rating

Good but could do much better
Course as always very scenic, but the fairway grass is, all too often, too long, and covered in a small white flower which makes finding a ball on the fairway occasionally very difficult (and on two occasions, impossible!).No semi rough either.In addition there remain a lot of small deep drainage channels in which balls can be lost, trolleys stopped dead in their tracks and, more worryingly, ankles turned. They need filling with gravel. There are some good holes here, don't get me wrong, and greens are excellent , but the course maintenance needs to step up.(Round played: Jul 2020 - Score: 89 Handicap: 20.6)

Small but nicely formed
It's an OK course that makes you think on most holes. The ?20 green fee is justabout right in these current times but certainly no more. Due to its yardage
circa 4500 yards it means you can get round quickly and a good course to
sharpen up your game. The 6 minute intervals were too short as there was
a bit of bunching.
