A great course for the beginner. Ideal confidence builder and
brings on 'course' experience to go on to more challenging ones as you get better.None of the 9 holes have any water so losing balls is not a problem either!

The course is fairly easy to manage. Some tactically demanding holes, however many straight forward ones aswell. The greens are in good condition and true. For a visitor the course lay-out or directions from one green to the next tee should be given , as some of the holes are not near to each other, e.g. the 7th green and the 8th tee box also comming off the 4th green with no directions to the 5th is confusing. The clubhouse is great and the pro shop very friendly.

This is a real gem of a course. Just a short tram ride from central Croydon, and with ample parking if you drive, the lovely "Arts and Crafts" clubhouse provides a warm welcome and the Pro Shop is staffed by knowledgeable and friendly folk.
The Championship Course is a real challenge. Yes, it's short; but every hole presents problems for the golfer. The first, the only par 5 on the course, has a left side OB - and the course slopes left! So play right? yes, and end up on the 18th!! Of course, the answer is to play straight...
The short holes (3, 8, 12, 14) are wicked - the 3rd (Satan's Short) has no fairway at all, and a biggish bunker - but the approach is through trees left and right. You *must* hit the green or you are in deep something!
Farleigh's Leap, the spectacular 6th gave me my longest ever drive, and pitching in to an upward sloping green makes this a great hole.
The course can be tricky to navigate - but there's a perfectly excellent yardage book available to guide you through, and the Course Marshals are very helpful.
The course is in tip top condition, even in winter, as I write; some mats are in play, and that's perfectly reasonable. The greens are spiked now and play a bit variably - but in normal weather, they are a joy.
A great course, a great club and great staff. Thanks!
