Crazy golf
We played this on a sunny day with some breeze. The whole course was firm and dry, the greens were fairly fast but did have bumps. The first is a straight downhill par 4, after which there are lots of blind or semi-blind shots. However you can hit a good tee shot straight over the marker post and struggle to find your ball (due to surprising bounces). There are greens with false fronts which can catch you out. There are also some long carrys over markers. As the course is difficult the pace of play was slow. There are spectacular views over the beach and sea. I have played twice and never want to play this course again.Reviewer Rating

It's a tough one!
Firstly I can't comment on the food or drinks as I was short on time.As for the course I has numerous observations.
1) It's tough. If you don't like blind shots or hills then its best avoided. I lost count of the number of blind shots required from both Tee and fairway!
2) If you cant drive/hit straight then bring lots of balls or send a friend ahead to spot for all the blind shots.
3) If its windy double up on point 2. Stray shots are often difficult to find in the Heather/Brambles and long grass.
4) The greens were good. Undulating and tricky pace but receptive.
5) It has great views of the town, cliffs, sea and beach.
6) There is only one water hazard! But a few reveted bunkers to collect your ball.
Would I recommend it? Yes, but only if you are playing with a group or are of a fair standard... Not for a novice.

Not many courses are going to divide opinion like this one. On the plus side, good warm up area, great views of dramatic scenery. Attractive modern clubhouse. Course has some simple short par 4’s but far more longer approaches to steeply plateaued greens. Likely to be very challenging for any golfer in any but the most benign conditions. Greens were fine, fairways struggling after a dry spring,
A lot of blind tee shots aimed over marker posts, a couple of which are going to leave you in trouble if you don’t carry it well over 220. Incredibly tough walk. Very exposed to any wind. Biggest problem on our visit is it’s far too random when the course is firm, if you haven’t played it before. Bit like playing on a skateboard park, luck is always in play on a proper links but running from one side of the fairway to the other, and then into trouble, is going to prove trying for most.
I’d still recommend playing it, but as a visitor really only when it’s green and receptive. Very hard course to rank, but I think on balance about right on here.

This is a proper links challenge!! The course was a little tired (understandable after a long summer season) but the challenge in hand is not to be under estimated.

Absolutely fantastic...... First time I've played a links course and it lived up to everything I hoped for.
Lovely sunny day and the wind was extremely strong at times which made it hard but very enjoyable.
It was maintenance week when we went so there was quite a bit going on around and on the course but the greens ran very well and the fairways were superb, you play blind on a lot of holes as you have to drive over large mounds and aim for a marker but as it was quiet I took time to walk the mound and check out the fairway on the otherwise which I would certainly recommend doing if possible. In all a superb course, well maintained and if your having a bad game just enjoy the awesome scenery around you, can't wait to play there again.
