Beautiful course, great condition, but very slow
There was a charity day ahead of us which made the round very slow - five-and-a-half hours.That aside, it was a fantastic course. Some very challenging holes, especially on the back 9, and a hilly course. Lots of elevation changes, with very few 'flat' holes.
The scenery and views are outstanding, and the course was very well kept and in extremely good condition. Nice little hut at the halfway point as well.

An enjoyable Parkland course overlooking the English Channel above Hythe with, thus, some great views. A very gentle start with 4 fairly easy and flattish holes changes into more difficult and undulating holes thereafter. A course worth playing again.

rolling fairways, beware of direction posts!!
2 different 9's. Front nine quite open and you can see what's in front of you from the tee box. back nine has too many blind tee shots with direction poles for my liking.I scored 1 over par 36 on the front.

Very busy, the semi rough too long and fluffy with lots of dead grass laying on top. Very hard to find your ball just off fairway even if you had s good spot on it. Very hilly and the greens were very slow.Reviewer Rating

Course was in fantastic condition. Greens were in great nick considering the recent hot weather. We played in extreme wind so the course was a real test.
