Children's rounds hold up play
Club had an apparent competition on with children that held us up considerably. These children were not to the standard they should have been in competition on a Saturday and some were dressed in tracksuits. The ones in front of us who had adults with them who didn't encourage any quicker play: if anything they knew less about golf than the kids and encourages slower play, leaving gear all over the course when putting etc
I called up the clubhouse from the course but they weren't interested at all.

Okay
I must admit Colne valley is not one of my most favourite clubs but it does what it says on the tin . Fairways and greens in good condition but if you go in the rough you can be in big trouble as it’s very overgrown

There are some very good features on the course. It is challenging, with some narrowing fairways between the trees; it is an attractive course; its greens are well kept. However, the bunkers are not well kept, with many stones and weeds in them (I know the answer is to stay out of the bunkers!).
