What an absolute Gem of a course! Compact, but very well designed (as you'd expect from a McKenzie) Greens were slow, due to wet conditions, but very true. Some lovely holes on the course and wonderful tee boxes nestled in trees. I went with a friend visiting from the Midlands on a Teetimes deal of just £15 and we both agreed we'd have been happy paying far more than that. Did take a buggy, which helps with the large undulations on the holes, but well worth a look and repeat visit. A few testing +200 yard Par 3's, but not card killers.

Well sheltered course nestling in the downs near Eastbourne. Very friendly clubhouse and pro shop and catering to a good standard. Excellent value for money. This course is always in good condition and is a great place to play in the winter as it is sheltered from the prevailing bad weather. Often good deals on offer including a meal/round of golf for under £25. Recommended.

as soon as you arrive and see the course you know you have arrived at something special, a good test and the course plays longer than 5800 yards, hilly in places but not too bad, fairways and greens in great condition all year round

a stunning course, quite forgiving but plays a lot longer than it is. some great holes , par 3's are monsters 217 and 235 so if you rely on keeping your score down on par 3's forget it!!!!
