"One of the longest 9 hole courses
in the country. Martin Moor is undergowing considerable investment
which not only includes a totally new 4500 sq foot clubhouse
for 2006 but considerable updating and reworking on the course
with tree planting, re-building bunkers etc taking place over
the winter of 2005/6.
The greens are in such good condition that they will remain
in play all over winter - NO WINTER GREENS here !!, combine
this with the challenging fairways, & 'greenkeepers revenge'
pin positions and you have the recipe for a cracking game."

Course Reviews
It always was a great (long) 9 hole course but the new owners
have made significant improvements in their 6 months.
Although the bunkers are GUR until they have re-worked them
over the winter it does not detract from a superb course.
I am told that planning permission has been granted for a
new clubhouse and that building will start in November so
the facilities should be even better for 2006. Huw Birrell November 2, 2005
