About the Course The signature hole is surely "Curlies Corner". This hole has no room for error. At 184 yards from the medal tee, the green, surrounded by water, has ruined many a good card. The 15th is also a nerve tester, at just 257 yards par 4 and aptly named "Temptation". It has water on both sides of the hole, which needs a good drive and nerve to reach the green from the tee.

Reviews
Good course, some testing holes in particular the last par 3 (target golf required, and the 250 yards par 4 (Temptation), makes you pull out the driver but fortunately (for me) there is safety to the right pin high but water short both left/front and right which makes you think twice about laying it up short.
Mick Delaney

A well designed course with some tempting holes. Fairly easy to birdie or par most holes.

One word can describe this place "Superb" from the moment you come through the gates you are greeted with polite friendly people, I have played the course twice now once in summer where the greens are at a great standard, firing the ball at the pin is a must, and once again in the winter 2005 where considering the heavy down pours it put most courses in the region in there best summer nick to shame, the Hotel/ fairways bar is a credit to the designer and the staff are professional and well presented.
If I lived within 30 minutes of the course I would definitely join, and would recommend to any level of golfer.

Played at Whitefields 16th/17th Oct 2010, to be honest i did not think much of the course, a few things stick out fairways were not that great & green would never take a ball, the tee boxes were not in great condition there is some interesting holes, hole 15 is a short par 4 which can reached with a strong 3 wood but you have water protecting the green, we played 2 rounds & both rounds took 5.5 hours to get round, this is was not on our part just to slow to get round. I think its a course i would not jump up & play again, if you are looking for a good course go to Wye Boston Bedford, great course
