good course needs more maintenance
if the course was maintained & invested in, it would attract a steady source of income, typical of council lack of vision. drainage required, paths and general upkeep, could be a great local course for a bounce game.Reviewer Rating

Popped in on the off chance on a sunday morning as nothing available on tee off times app. £18.50 for a round on whats essentially a public park. The course was soaking wet which is fine but some of the puddles were unbelieveable even though it hadnt rained for 24+ hours. Big bald patches on some greens as well. As others have said, this is fine for a quick round especially if u get it for £7 on teeofftimes app but not at £18.50.

Reviewed Apr 12 2015
Course waterlogged throughout, drainage is shocking. Maybe they should put the £18 it cost to trudge around this marsh towards the course instead of the fancy renovations to the clubhouse. They have this back to front, the course should come first. That's why we go to golf courses, to play golf. That price is absolutely ridiculous for a substandard course compared to other public courses around. You can play some quality private courses for less. With the poor drainage you're basically paying £18 for winter golf on a public course and that's just a rip off. Easily the worst course I've played and the first time I've wanted to pack up and go home for any other reason than my golf! ???? won't be back again and wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Dubious about playing here after looking at some reviews. Not a problem, most of them are old...so don't relate to present day course. Fairway/greens in good nick, signage no worries, was able to navigate course without any probs. Scorecard map very good, didn't need specs and 6th tee just over the road, not 'five minute walk'. A good test for any golfer. Will certainly go back....often.

Tees in poor condition, poor signage - had to go back to clubhouse to ask where 6th tee was. Turned out it was a 5 min walk over a main road with no ramps for trolleys etc. On third hole a devil dog off its lead came up to sniff me while the family walking it stomped down the fairway without a care in the world. Is what it is i suppose and some challenging drives but not worth £14. Greens in good nick though and friendly staff.

the course has suffered dramaticly due to the money being spent on the facilities and not the course. The locker rooms, toilets and general appearence is very nice but this is at the sacrifice of the course. First 5 holes are like swamps with poor drainage keeping water on fairways, the greens are patchy with mud, divots are not repaired on tee boxes (which have no indicators) and they are a mess, 5 balls are being permitted to play with wardens not sorting it out, bunkers are full of stones, overall a the course looks like its been let go. Shame because when its in good nick its a great course to play.

challenging course for all levels of ability. With water in play, tight fairways lined with closely planted trees, blind tee shots, hitting from elevated tees and to elevated greens. The general tidiness of the course id disappointing. However, this is a council course and as long as you bear that in mind when playing you wont be disappointed. The fairways and greens are above the expexcted standard for a concil course and have good drainage. The tee areas do need some work.
