(West Course). I played this on a bright November day but following a week of heavy rain. The pro shop advised on arrival that it was "a bit wet out there". However the course was in good condition - yes, a few odd wet bits but generally a very playable.

The course was really interesting - a great mixture of holes. Although a short course, this is still a interesting and good test with good use of the land. Of note, the SI 1 14th with a blind tee shot and the picturesque par 3 16th. A course map would have been good on the back of the scorecard... or do you want us to fork out for the full course guide?

On the negative side, the were A LOT of dog walkers out there. Many were happy to share the ground with golfers others see it as their right to saunter around without regard to anyone else.

19th had great facilities and was very welcoming although pricey. £4 a pint of standard lager; about £4.50 for a bacon bap (good bacon bap though!).

Overall an enjoyable round and will definitely come again.

Short but demanding

No bunkers but plenty of gorse and run off areas. Plenty of hidden valleys and ditches. Greens were fast and some growth meant a little bumpy on certain greens. How this is only 110 course slope off the Yellows can anly be because of distance. It is a much tougher course than the Course index indicates.

A great course and very quiet at the beginning of January.

Great value for money with winter rates.

Course probably plays much more easily in winter without the heather out!
