Very windy and greens were bumpy and surprisingly firm, would play again but not in a 2 club wind.

The clubhouse, there are no signs or indications that the clubhouse has moved, we had no idea and were standing around for a while until a member saw us and put us right. Once inside the young lady on the desk cannot be faulted she was polite and friendly and helpful as was the young man that was serving our coffee but why did we have to wait until 0830 for our bacon rolls it was booked for 0800 and we teed off at 0900 so this was a rush in the end. The rolls were nice.
The course, we have played here several times both privately and as part of this society and we have never known the course to be so poor. You have the fairways and deep rough nothing In between so a ball that just rolls off disappears in to deep cabbage rather than just the first cut. The bunkers were lacking in sand but made up for in stones and hard core. but the worst complaint my members and I have is about the greens considering this is the middle of spring where is the grass and why are they rutted and scarred, they were also hard as rock so much so that when I hit a good high shot into a par 3 the ball bounced like a tennis ball on the green and disappeared off the back. Some of the greens were almost unplayable.
The lunch was ok and as I said the staff were ok too.
I have been asked by my members and I agree with them that we do not return to this course next year.
We did notice that for a Friday in good weather the course was empty have you lost members and players due to the condition?

A course of two halves really. A lot of the holes were a bit 'samey' but that's being critical. Tees and fairways were in great condition but the greens were really poor; putting was a bit of a lottery on too many holes thanks to the poorly 'healed' aeration slits and grass cut down to the soil/moss. They've closed the old clubhouse and relocated it away from the course and worryingly it looks as though they're prioritising the new 4G football pitches that have gone up since my last visit. The course has great potential, its a shame the problems are such big ones. Will probably go back to give it another chance, but it's likely to be the last one given.

Played mid April, second time in last few months. Friendly staff as always (only course played on where tee shop is run by women which always helps), course boggy underfoot especially as get further into the round, nobody fault but many other courses do not seem to suffer as much, holes are interesting and challenging but favour straight hitters as fairways quite narrow, greens ok, quite quick and some are undulating which makes for more of a challenge. Good value for money but better overall courses about but definitely worth playing. One big gripe is after first few holes no ball washing machines had any water in so white ball was almost brown by end of the round

The have closed the large clubhouse and now share a clubhouse with the kids football pitches. Course is still reasonable if a bit wet. Greens are even and fast but have a lot of moss in them
