What the club says: This 18 hole park land course threads its way through magnificent mature trees and provides a challenge that is mastered by few. Its unique Manor Clubhouse is surrounded by a 12th Century moat, occupied by two deceptively serene white swans.

The extended course was designed by Gaunt & Marnock and incorporates modern specification greens which provide excellent playing surfaces throughout the year.

Whilst not extremely long by modern standards the 6008 yards have stood the test of time.

Very average

Played after reading good reviews online, the condition was not bad for November but 2 winter greens for no apparent reason. The other greens bobbly.
Just a very average layout with no real signature holes. The new 9 are much better than the old 9 but that isn't saying much. Overall fairly short and easy.
Worth about 15 quid on teeofftimes but no more than that sadly.

Deceptively challenging

You don't get an easy introduction here with a 200 yd par three, narrow long green guarded by a bunker atop a steep slope on the lower side and a canal to the higher side, this is indicative of the course, you can't just bang it and chip on most holes, course management is key.
The clubhouse is surrounded by an 11th century moat and is frequented by welcoming members and staff who are rightly proud of this interesting club.

Good course

This course is hidden away and pretty hard to find. Its obvious it is a really nice course. Unfortunately we played it after some high winds and bad weather which made it extremely boggy underfoot. I know this is true of many parkland courses but this was more than you would usually expect. One of our group had played it before in spring and said it was superb in nice confitions, which was easy to see how it would be. Would recommend but preferably in good weather

Signing for the course towards the clubhouse was a little confusing and the club lacks a golf shop for those who forget anything. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. We were struck by the Hall, moat and surroundings.
