Only £17.00 during the week so a cheap round of golf.

The weather was cloudy, cool with a light wind which got stronger the longer we played.
First impressions were not good!
We paid for our golf and got a bucket of range balls.
The range wasn't a range! It was a piece of waste land with one mat.
The range balls were a mixture of proper golf balls and range balls.
Then I went into the small clubhouse to get the regulation bacon butty! Only to find out that they don't start cooking until 11am.
We arrived on the first tee and found that we were looking down a bowling alley. They have built a bank on each side of the fairway and it does look like a bowling alley!
The tees were OK, the fairways were OK. The greens were green, they had grass on them and were well cut, but they were rock hard! Even with a bit of moisture on top they would not hold a golf ball, you had to drop it short and let the ball run onto the green.
You could tell that this used to be a nine hole course as the two halves are totally different to each other. The front nine are nice mature holes but the back nine is like one big field with a few trees in between the fairways.
I did like the 6th hole (Par 4 - 281 yards - SI 7), you tee off uphill to a marker post. It's only a short par 4 but you don't realise that just over the brow of the hill is a pond! It's on the left hand side of the fairway, but the fairway narrows the nearer the green you get!
My favourite hole was the 17th (Par 4 - 322 yards - SI 6), you stood on the tee and one each side of the fairway, about 150 yards away were two big trees. As you looked down the fairway you could see the green in the distance, nestled into a small wood! We then found out that there was a pond before the green that went from the front of the green around to the left hand side of the fairway. I hit a three wood and ended up about ten yards short of the pond on the right hand side of the fairway, if I had gone left I would have been in the pond!
They had a small bar which was nice enough.
I don't think I'll go back here this winter, but I might try and give it a go again next summer.

Good value but fairways narrow
A nice clubhouse, food, drink and shop ... excellent value for a midweek round of golf. The course was in a good condition, however we found the fairways very narrow and when off the fairway you found yourself in clover, which hide the ball very well, so plenty of lost balls in our group, despite OK tee shots.Reviewer Rating
