Quiet course, very open and generally forgiving. Spectacular surroundings when the sun shines

Reviewed Apr 4 2012

Very good course with greens always in very great condition due to drainage. Staff in shop very friendly and helpful, green fees very reasonable and visitors pay a day rate. If playing at reduced rate times offers excellent value. The course is very open and exposed so can be difficult when the wind blows, but is very fair to all golfers. Being on the north east coast make sure you have attire to suit all weathers.
Overall, well worth a visit.

Decent

Really enjoyed the course, tee boxes in perfect condition and greens lovely. Only thing wrong was the bunkers-they had little sand in so was difficult too play out of them. I did see some new sand near the clubhouse so looks like they trying too sort them out ??

Great course with some nice sea views & there's always a welcome in the clubhouse. Undergoing a few hole changes at the time which when complete with only enhance it's appeal.

This course is really well kept but I found it a bit monotonous. Plus I dislike courses that have tee boxes firing over previous greens forcing waits (especially on busy days).
