Description |
Undulating
parkland now nicely maturing. Fairly open with three feature
lakes in play. The dramatic 15th hole demands a good 180-yard
second shot off a high plateau down to a green surrounded by
bunkers |
| Reviews |
I
have played here on many occasions as a visitor, I find the
staff to be courteous and the facilities to be well kept.
The course is relatively young, with many immature trees,
however, it is a most enjoyable course with a good variety
of holes, all of which are well maintained.

Very good reliable greens all year round, they use dwarf
perennial rye with bent & fescue grass as a mix it really
works.
Very forgiving course on way-wards tee-shots in general except
the 16th & 17th. A decent and fairway landing tee off
is needed 4 the 18th as a tight water & bunker guarded
green approach awaits 4 your 2nd shot in (some 150 yrd in).
Shane Obrien October 30, 2005
Played today main 18 hole course.
Very disappointed as the club is pay and play and tee off times are every 8 minutes, (had booked a tee off and told course not busy) this includes four balls which means the course is extremely busy and ruins your round.
The course itself is good, greens ok, and good fairways, but you cannot enjoy a round when you're waiting on every tee for 20 minutes and then waiting on second shot and so on.
Walked off after 14 (4.5 hours !) not worth the £27.50 fee...
This is the third time in two years I have attempted to play this course and every time it has been too busy and I haven't completed a round due to delay.
If the course management continue on this road then they will lose custom.
