Course Review

A small 9 hole course, but by no means a pitch & putt one. Tees and fairways were in good condition and the greens were superb.

1st holeThe course starts off with a slight dogleg downhill par 4, that gives a good opportunity to get off to a great start. Then it's through the hedge to the blind tee shot of the 2nd. After the 3rd hole par 3 comes a very interesting 4th hole where you will have to think on the tee.

Holes 5 & 6 are decent par 4's and the 7th hole has a tee set back into the hedges with a sloping fairway to the left.

The 8th is hard to judge as it has a raised green that you cannot see from the tee and the 9th has a blind tee shot which if left in the middle of the fairway gives you a good approach to the final green. Water comes into play on the 1st, 4th & 6th holes and you have to avoid a railway line on the 7th.

Overall we think this is a very good 9 hole course, the clubhouse facilities could be improved upon but we must say that the staff and members we met were very friendly and a credit to the course.

Favourite Hole

4th HoleHole 4: Short par 4 of some 278 yards.
Some would be tempted to go for it here but you really do need to be very accurate, otherwise you will be in sand or in the lake. The best way to play this hole is to work out the yardage to the safe part of the fairway between the 4 bunkers & the lake and hit an iron shot there. Which leaves you with a nice short iron to the very narrow entrance of the green. If played sensibly a birdie is on the cards but if you don't think when you get on the tee you could well end up over par on this hole.
