Another very well maintained municipal course. More challenging than person meadows but also more forgiving and longer. Great atmosphere and price.

Excellent for a public course

This venue is excellent for a public pay and play course. The condition, facilities, clubhouse, shop and staff are all first class. The greens were in great condition as were the bunkers, tees and fairways. Very impressed and great value for money too. Made this visit extremely enjoyable. Also helped to have nice weather. Very happy to recommend. Will definitely be back.

Rated the 9th best course in England

Peter Alliss and Dave Thomas design course. Rated the 9th best course in England Is a mature tree line parkland municipal course which had an easy walk with undulating & some tight fairways.
Greens were good & ran pretty true. Fairways were in good condition. But if you run off the fairways into the 1st cut or under the trees it is very easy to lose a ball.
Some bunker had wooden steps going down. There was several long par 4. So if you’re a short hitter like me you will struggle to get there in 2.
Practise chipping/ putting green. Driving range. Ball waters
Also has a great pro shop with a huge selection of equipment and clothing.
Overall a very good course will definitely play again and worth a visit

Small Society

Nine man society played course on 21/5/24. Definitely good value for money, greens in good condition but quite slow (took some time to get used to them!), fairways generally good. The first cut rough was not good though as grass cuttings left meaning easy to lose a ball when only just off fairways. Layout is enjoyable.

Simply a beautiful course to play

Simply a beautiful course to play and visit. The course for the conditions was in very good condition with the one exception hole but didn't distract from a great day. Fantastic greens, great tees and 17 fairways in tip top condition. Friendly staff, well stocked shop and a decent clubhouse serving lovely food. The only criticism is they haven't moved on from covid and still only card payment only. Not suitable for all and not for me, shame.

Very disappointing

Todays visit on the whole was very disappointing. Whilst the course was presented well for a public pay and play venue the greens were extremely in a poor state for playing. They were very slow, very uneven and appeared to actually stop the ball from rolling freely toward the target hole. The whole idea of a contactless payment only venue was also not welcomed on the day. The only good things in favour for the visit was the food and drink were very good and the staff were very friendly. The pay and display facility car park I did understand the need for and didn't distract from the day as you inputted your car reg. number into the system in the clubhouse anyway without having to pay albeit by card as well, not good.
