David Thomas rated 3 out of 5

Reviewed Apr 10 2017

Played in Early April and the course was in good condition, with a warm welcome on arrival. The course now measures over 6100 yards for two circuits and with a good variety of different lengths and tee positions for the back 9. Although basically flat, don't think that you are in for an easy ride for there are some really tough long par fours, some unreachable for most in a headwind, and there are some subtle small ponds that have to be taken on. By nature of its clay subsoil, it can get a bit bouncy in summer and dropping the approach well short seems to be the trick to stop on the fairly small greens.
All in all, a good and enjoyable 9 hole course with a fine small clubhouse with good real ale, and whilst will never be in the same league as the big boys, is truly worth a visit.

forgiving off the tee but yet still has its card ruining holes particulary the third being a double dog leg with out of bounds left and right

Nice friendly farm land course. Well maintained and as family run they take real pride. Over last two years upgrades to facilities. Course relatively flat and with interest. Costs reasonable
