Baron landscape

Had heard many good things about the course siama was very excited at getting the opportunity to play there. The club house it's great and gives you a sense of the history of the course. The putting green is good and the chipping practice area is equally impressive. The driving range was a long distance away and of very poor condition. Finally, the course; apart from holes 4-8 I found the course baron and non-descript. There also needs to be more signage for visitors. As it's just a vast landscape, the holes aren't very well defined. The greens though were excellent and challenging. Overall, i was disappointed, but maybe my expectations were too high.

This is an amazing clubhouse which acts more as a museum. The course is on common ground, but in good condition, the greens were the best I played on during a weeks golf, they were true and fast. The problem for this course is the lack of definition on some holes and the marker posts because there is no obvious target. The clubhouse is more memorable than the course.

Reviewed May 29 2016

Great historical links. Comfortable clubhouse if unattractive as you drive in. Putting green and warm up net close at hand. Easy walk. Extremely wide in places. Fairways respectable despite being common land. Good service by friendly staff.
However, very little definition. Possibly the flattest course I can think of. Too many forgettable holes. Greens 8.8 on my stimp but a little patchy. Stuck in a 100 year old time warp. Range is tatty and a little far away.
Don't want to be too harsh as its not without charm. If they could get permission to build up some of the tees on the flattest holes, even a couple of feet, first time visitors might well enjoy the layout a little more. Rating is about right here.

Really enjoyed this round. Thought that the course would be all about the history but not much else (like Musselborough) however I was pleasantly surprised. The front 9 had some great variation to the holes, the greens ran true and club had some great facilities and plenty of historic documents to check. Also the fish pie in the clubhouse was top notch!

Was initially disappointed as the 2-4-1 voucher didn't get half price golf, just £10 off. Certainly didn't say this on their website.
The course is in good condition and the greens are quick and true. Not the most exciting course, no real risk/reward holes. Won't be in a rush to play again, and would be most annoyed if I had paid full whack for a round. Save your pennies up and have a jolly at Saunton instead.
