Harder than it looks

This course was probably the toughest I've played. Fairways are tighter than they look because as soon as you're towards the first cut you will find a number of trees with tight, dense canopies waiting to block your next shot. Lots of low punch shots to get back on the fairway. The rough was soft and mulchy so you needed good shots to escape. Beautiful course though. Prime, Challenge and Prestige loops all had their merits. Very walkable in November but wouldn't have fancied walking it in summer. Overall, a beautiful place to play that will be kind to you if you're hitting straight.

Nice Set Up

Course in good condition and a challenging tight course in places. Fairways and greens in good condition. Some challenging holes but overall a good course.

I had a great time playing at this course! The scenery was absolutely beautiful and the facilities were very professional and well-maintained. The test was varied in difficulty and the conditions, weather, and overall feeling were great. I really enjoyed the variety of long and short holes.

A really immaculate course that was under repair on some of the holes when we played. That is quite understandable. Some holes bring the best out of you as you realise that they are meant to test.
Clubhouse is up to the best standards and the shop is staffed by very friendly people.

The course was well maintained and the staff very helpful. The fairways and greens were in good condition. The greens were fairly fast and very true. Opportunities for birdies and pars. But a challenge at mid handicap level.

Weather Great, course was in very good condition. Front 9 were closed. Played 10-27 instead

Only thing that disappointed was the slow play and no marshals on the course to encourage people to speed up.
