Reviews | I
have been a member since the early 80's and know that the quality of the fairways,greens
etc are superb. Excellent views from the peaks of the Mendips (Westbury white
horse, Glastonbury Tor, Hinkley point all visible). Beware the weather as stiff
winds often test your golf. Undulating open course and fom my experience it has
been one of the most challenging courses I have played and I have found I normally
play 1-2 shots under my handicap elsewhere. Recently cut from 11 to 6 - Wilson
Fatshafts a recent investment paying off!! Great course and if I shoot sub
80 then I am pretty pleased. Shaun Robertson |
