Fantastic reception - good discount on purchases and green fee and pro very welcoming.
Members very friendly - spoke to us during the round giving advice on some holes. Course was lovely - good condition and hole 7 a highlight. Lots of interesting doglegs/changes in elevation. Greens very fast and true.
Can highly recommend.
Only thing to improve might be the menu choices - had a toastie which was okay, service again very friendly.
