I have become quite a regular here this year, the course is by far and away the best maintained pay and play course in the area. A bargain at £7. The service is always friendly and the pub next door is very cheap!

Fantastic greens! Played this course mid-feb and was amazed by how great the condition of the whole course was, but the greens in particular were as good as most other courses are in the summer! This is not just a course for beginners - I play alot of 18h golf off a handicap of 10 and i found this course to be a good fun challenge. They are short holes but with plenty of character and danger - you can miss the green by a couple of yards and your in trouble - just how a 9h course should be.

Given the amount of rain we've had recently this course is in excellent condition. Course is only par 29 but is a good challenge if, like me, you struggle with short holes.

Short course. 7 par 3s offering different challenges. Good for practising. Greens are excellent and in play all year round. Probably not enough of a challenge for low handicappers.
