Quite
a short course for 18 holes, but no par 5's and 8 par 3's.
Two of the par fours are 450 yards though. In three parts
you have to cross a road a couple of times, the first part
just has the 1st, 16th, 17th & 18th, the second part has most
of the course in with a little "Amen Corner" of three par
3's seperate. A few holes are a bit hilly, quite links style,
with a few small trees in places, rough not too bad but the
fairways are quite generous, greens though are small. Par
3's range from about 100 yards to 250 yards, a couple rather
blind with the greens obscured by front bunkers. Quite an
easy course to play 36 holes on without taking up the whole
day. Have been there on lots of occasions and have never had
a bad experience - apart from playing like a 50 handicapper
of course ! Name

First
hole is into a bit of valley with maybe a 75 yard carry over
some rough, quite a pressure shot as your overlooked by the
proshop and clubhouse and there is no driving range to warm
up on ! Watch out for the bunkers too, the sand is quite shallow
in places. Name not supplied
Westgate
and Birchington is a good course with exciting and challenging
holes. the 13th 14th and 15 th holes are a good test of skill
for beginners. Matt Francis
