Nice little course that is now drying out. Clubhouse a bit old fashioned and very dark needs lightening up. Excellent bar food Ham eggs and chips £4.50 really good and great value. Pretty busy for a Thursday.

Tight, woody and wet this course plays a lot harder than is appears on the card. It was a great place to learn the game as accuarcy and short game are tested over distance. Always in excellant condition and very friendly, shame there isn't a little more room for a variation in tees for those playing 18.

this is a nice 9 hole course with a fantastic dog right par 5 good mix of bunkers and water hazards and all staff are friedndly has a small shop to buy esentals like balls etc.
i feel it could do with a vending machine for cold Drinks rather than having to go the bar for drinks which while playing 18 having to stop and change footware to obtain a drink is slightly tedious but thats me just nit picking
