Only played the West Course, not The Old Course. Very user friendly, typical faiways and greens found on forest courses, and while quite short is still a good test. No bunkers to worry about but you may find yourself with a linksy type lie on the fairway.

Not long but a challenging course. No bunkers but very undulating course where accuracy is vital.

Reviewed Oct 30 2007

I played both courses here, I think the Old is obviosuly an excellent course, one I would say suits the elder golfer rather than the long hitter, you need to place your golf ball, rather than smash it. The West I thought was OK, but a bit strange not having a single bunker on the course. Feels like you are at a very old members course. Which you are!

A great natural course let down by a lack of care and attention, especially on the greens. Not for the high handicapper due to the long carries and severe rough in summer.
