Course Review

Not your average Pay & Play course we admit but if you do want to treat yourself once a year to a great golf experience then this course is just right for that treat.

Garden Bridge
Picturesque garden bridge

Everything about the course says quality, from the magnificent clubhouse to the wonderful manicured greens.

The designer of this course, Mr Colt, knew what he was doing. Bunkers are placed around the course on nearly every hole to catch the hit it as far as I can golfer. You really have to think your way around here if you are going to score well.

Guarded green
A view of a well guarded green.

The tees & fairways were in very good condition but the greens were excellent. We arrived at the course with only minutes before our tee-off time so had no chance to practice putting. This was evident on the 1st, 2nd & 3rd greens. Never before have I seen so many 3 putts in the first three holes. Once we got accustomed to the greens we could hit our putts with the confidence of knowing they were not going to stop 5ft short but role smoothly up to the hole.

The only downside of this course was the fact that there were no indicators on the flags as to where the pin position was and the tee areas were just rectangular mounds & not the nice sculpted ones they should have been to match the rest of the course.

Favourite Hole

Hole 7:   172 yard par 3.
The hole that was the inspiration for the 12th at Augusta, there is no doubt that this is a tough hole.

7th hole
7th hole from the tee, there is no bail out area.

The idea is simple, hit the green, for there is no safe place off it. Come up short & you are in the water, go right & you are in the water, go left into the bunkers or up onto the grass bank & with your next shot you are in the water.
