first time at the course. Very flat so didnt think it would be to tough BUT........
Nice use of water, lots of trees and when the wind is blowing can be very tricky.
Very good condition all round but found the greens a little bit bobbly but probably due to the weather.
Tree lined fairways means straight tee shots are needed or you may well end up in a stream !!!!
Would definately return to the course for another crack at it.

Top Notch Course and Club

On a beautiful afternoon in late May, it was fantastic to get out on one of the best courses and clubs in Essex, its a gem of a course, difficult and long (over 6000yards off the yellows) and in fatastic condition. Stay on the fairway they said as the rough is very difficult to get out of...no kidding. Could not fault the course just my driving. Highly recommended to anyone to try it. Its expensive to non members (£45) but worth it IMHO.

Proper Golf club

Really well maintained and everyone was very friendly.
Tight course but challenging. Was very wet but nevertheless was in good condition.
The 4 winter greens were of a high standard. Love the place

This is the first time this year I have seen a green course in England. The tee's are excellent and the fairways have a nice layer of grass so the ball sits up well. The greens were a fraction slow (although it was early evening) but ran slow and received a ball well. The course is not too long, but there are plenty of trees to penalise a wayward tee shot. There are some well positioned bunkers to catch a mis-hot shot. The last three holes are a nice, interesting finish with a tight par 3, dogleg par 4 and straight short par 4.

Excellent course in superb condition. My father is a member here and I can see why!
Super-slick greens, that really test every level.
Cant wait to play here again!
Shame visitors are restricted to just 5 times a year - even as a guest!

Golfshake Team ReviewAmazing greens. Really hard to ready the subtle breaks though.

Really tough in places and not every par 4 requires a driver. Lovely mixture of testing holes. A joy to play.

From reading the card you can get lulled into a false sense of security of thinking you can shoot a great score. The reality is this is a very subtle course, close enough to the sea to make club selection into the breeze an important decision. The greens this year are in good condition following the winter floods and can only get better. A welcoming club, friendly members who are happy to dispense advice when asked and who appreciate golfers knowing their etiquette as they say in their blurb a proper golf club. Well worth a visit and I will be returning especially at the current reduced green fee rates.

25 pound winter special including breakfast was nice touch. And the course played very well. Interesting ball movement in the air which I think relates to the proximity of the seafront and wind, made for an interesting game.

Great track, amazing fairways

Loved this course. Long enough to use the driver but tight enough to be really challenging. Some amazing holes, big drivers can drive a few greens (hitting 300 to 330 yards). Greens quick and challenging but true.
