Great Course and nice staff. Was very blowy so we experienced a links course at the mercy of the wind coming off the sea. The Par 3 12th, aptly named The Hell and only 141 yards, needed a 5 wood or longer!! We had NTP for that hole and none of our group of 16 landed on it!!

Parkland with a touch of links. A very good courseto test yourself on before trying links courses. Keep well clear of the greensides bunkers. Lovely views of the sea from every holes! Member can sign you in for £16!! and Tiger played this course before he play Royal St George.

A very tidy course, only downside was the temporary green on the 1st that we weren't told about.

If you like Parkland or Links this has a bit of both. Thoroughly enjoyed the rround though didn't play my best. Good mix of holes with some long par 4s to tackle. Definitely worth playing.

Reviewed Jun 18 2016

A well draining course but because of this and it's eminent playability all year round it tends to be oversubscribed and overplayed. This leads to well worn areas around most holes and favours either the very good or playing handicaps in the high teens. An ever present problem is the maintenance of the bunkers. Given windy conditions most of the time the sand depth is usually deficient and is a constant source of frustration. Green maintenance has been patchy with true/flat greens a rarity, however a new green keeper has just been appointed. Despite this, the club is backed up by a well presented clubhouse and excellent facilities. A well presented 18 hole short course is available offering good value for main course members.

Disappointing

Perhaps not a course for this time of year.
By far the slowest greens I've played on this year. Lots of sand evident. Whole group struggled to get the pace of them.
Also, why so many par fours over 400 yards (7 in total)? Good drives were rewarded with 180+ second shots, then you pitched / chipped onto greens that weren't particularly receptive and you couldn't judge putts on. Also have to say that there aren't really any particular holes that stick in the memory. The words "that was a slog" were used by most of the group. We also all agreed that they're overcharging for what it is. (£50 even with County Card.)
So I won't be rushing back, and can't honestly recommend it unless you hit 300 yard drives.
People were very friendly tho. The "halfway house" is a must visit. Great food and good service.
