Course Reviews	We played the Red course. A beautifully designed course, but why the 6 par 5's. At least 4 warranted no more than a par 4. The course should be a par 68, SSS 70. Now why have a par 72 when the course should only be a 68? As a visitor we expected to play off the tees of the day, but saw 4 other groups on the tee all day, playing off the whites. The groups were a 2 ball, a 3 ball and 2 four balls. I can only assume that they were members, so visitors seem to be discriminated against. The facilities are undergoing refurbishment but still reasonable. A very traditional feel to the place and worth a visit. Jeremy Nicholls October 28, 2007
