Course Review
Gently undulating open course
with a couple of water hazards, not too demanding if you do not hit the
ball straight down the fairway as the only densely wooded area on the
course is the course boundary.
Ditches run across the fairway's of 7 of the holes which can make you
think about which club to take off the tee.
We found the back nine a lot more interesting than the
front, starting with the 11 th. This hole has hidden dangers, it is a slight
dogleg and hidden in the rough on the left to stop you cutting the corners are
three little pot bunkers, but if the rough is left to grow a little these bunkers
are not visible from the tee.
The 13th is a par 5 that really does play like a par
5. If you really smash your tee shot then you may get a chance to go for the
green otherwise lay up as the green is very well protected.
The
17th has a great view from the tee, a slight dogleg to the left with bunkers
on both sides of the fairway at driving distance and a tree smack bang in the
middle of the fairway just before the green.
Favourite Hole
Hole
9:
The green is surrounded by a ditch, bunkers and ponds
which means miss the green and you are in trouble.

For a pay and play golf course the standard is excellent, greens immaculate and bunkers well maintained, the back 9 has a feel of an inland links course with the long pasture and riveted bunkers, thoroughly enjoyable and money well spent.
