It is lovely course the service was great and so was the
round. I would say that if you are in the area then you should
play this. I would like to thank the pro for helping me and
i hope that you enjoy the same experience as me. Name not supplied April 29, 2005
This course is an excellent course with thousands of trees
that outline the fairways of each hole giving each hole its
own boundary, the course is in perfect nick and has 3 man
made lakes there is also a new driving range and short game
area go and play there as it is an excellent course. James Davies June 19, 2005
This course is different gravy. I was playing with the pro
and on the third he hit an iron of the tee and then holed
his second shot, any good hey. The course is in great condition
and this is to thank the greenstaff, i have played there a
lot but never has the course been this good. Also the service
was great and if you are looking for a good round of golf
then you should come and play here. Ryan July 19, 2005
Played this course yesterday (8th Sept 06) on a society
day. Food and service were excellent and good value. The clubhouse
was ok as well. The course was in pretty good condition but
is short, a little contrived (too many doglegs) and the greens,
whilst nice to look at were painfully slow. The high handicapper
will enjoy this course but if your a single figure handicap
this course offers no real golfing satisfaction. Paul Barnett September 8, 2006
