What the club says: A pretty parkland course, surrounded by mature woodland, with lush fairways and excellent greens watered from natural underground springs. The nine hole course is relatively short but very challenging, The course record is 67 - scored by Andy Francis. Created in 1970 and extended through a mature wood in 1987, the many natural springs have been tamed into water features which are home to a varierty of wildlife.

Short but challenging; small greens, tight boundaries and several ponds but no penal rough.

Considering the bad weather we have had, the course has been maintained really well and was on the whole free of surface water.

Very nice course, greens well preserved and well managed- went on a very hot day however and so dried scorched grass made it difficult
