Tough conditions

The rain has taken its toll on all courses. The conditions made a tough course unenjoyable.

A Good venue with excellent hospitality facilites , played the Gainsborough course and found this to be a good challenge, the fairways and greens were very good although some of the teeboxes were in poor condition and the bunkers were full of compacted hard sand .
this course is very hilly and beware that some of the paths between the holes are in a very poor condition indeed and really need urgent rectification

Nice course although if you dont know the layout take a map as some of the walks between the tees are long and not very well signed. Greens were good and fairways wide and forgiving. We had a meal afterwards which was average.

Second visit, first was last March when the course was ridiculously wet, boggy & essentially unplayable, which I hadn't expected from a course that was ranked so highly by a lot of people.

In much better condition this time, probably a consequence of being closed to the public a lot in the preceeding weeks for tournaments. Would like to go back an play again but not at the prices they're asking.

Golfshake Team ReviewThis course has gone down hill in the last few years as they put more attention on the hotel and spa.

Is a good layout with a nice variety but golf clearly comes 3rd in the pecking order so the general condition of both courses is not what it used to be.

Reviewed May 22 2016

Very nice layout with a mixture of short and long holes and some good water hazards. In particular, I thought the 10th was a superb par back and forth over a large reservoir. Was a shame then the course was in pretty poor condition in every way the day I played it: tees with lots of divots and quite uneven, bunkers not enough sand and greens very bobble and too firm to hold the ball. Hopefully this is a one off due to dry weather/lack of staff available but disappointing nevertheless.
