Course 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.

Name not supplied

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.
