Marvellous with a quirkiness that's totally endearing.
Not very long (Par 64) but, if the wind is up, as difficult as any course.8 par threes. Ranging from 106 to 225 yards. Each throws up it's own problems.
Well maintained greens that were running really well.
Course is played in 4 stages. 1-3 in one field, 4 to 14 in another over the railway bridge, 15 to 17 in another field (all par threes) then back to the first field to play 18 and get into the wonderfully friendly clubhouse.
Officially been around since 1893 as W&B but there's a map in the clubhouse dated 1844. So they are clearly doing something right and breakfast was superb.

Disappointed
First, the positives: the welcome was friendly, the food excellent and the toilets sparkling clean.\\Now the negatives: the greens were scabby, the first cut off the fairways was unfairly tough and tangly, and the whole place seemed a bit run down. \\Although it is a short course, it is a fair test of your handicap. Just a shame that the overall experience was disappointingReviewer Rating

Nice shirt course. Not too many tricky holes so even if you don’t hit too straight you should be okay

Course is split over 3 areas, which are reached by crossing roads. For some reason today players were starting their rounds on hole 17. It is a course that would suit beginners very well.
