This is a 9 hole Course with different tees to differentiate the front n back 9s. It's not in the highest quality condition but the holes do vary. Some work has gone on a few bunkers but the fairways could be a lot better. For a local Course it's worth checking it out.

Big price increases

Course is still pretty good for what it is but the price for 9 holes has rocketed recently and no longer worth it for a quick midweek morning game. 18 holes still a good price but for some reason they have made 9 holes no longer worth it.

A very good 9 hole course. Well kept and very friendly. There is also a 9 hole Foothold course as well. There is a practice putting green and 2 nets to practice your irons n woods.

surprisingly good

i?d heard from other golfers i knock about that this was a rough course and i wasn't expecting much but i was pleasantly surprised, really friendly in the clubhouse, if your not on fairway then yeah your in trouble but the greens were all flat and nice and true. yeah when i saw a 3 ball in front put there stand bags and a trolley on the green it was a poor sight but i?d go back as i enjoyed the challenge and i did play well which helps but yeah not for proper posh golfers but for us that we're brought up to play lupset, gotts park and those municipal courses with the same problems

Little Gem

Built on old pit tops this 9 hole course with 2 different sets of tees makes an interesting 18 hole course.
My debut in our rabbits section at this course was completed by being played opposite two great blokes, great food afterwards and a 7-1 win for our lads.
One I'll try and play again.

Poor Greens

The best way I can describe the course as a whole would be to say it just feels a little 'threadbear" - the greens are poor to very poor, oh and it's not cheap. If it was a fiver a round I would have no issue.
