Forebiz event
Course was great. A tad nervous have to have balls coming from different directions due to the proximity of greens and tee boxes but the course itself was great. Perfect greens and nice staff.Reviewer Rating

Fantastic Open venue
Visited as part of a group playing in the Open week. What a turnaround this course has seen ! I haven’t played in better greens this year and in my opinion the course is definitely at the top levels of parkland courses in the area. Beautiful backdrop on many holes with the hills and river dee often in view. Friendly staff and very welcoming club. Extremely well organised check-in and tailored cards for our team - even provided markers where we each had shots on the hole. We’ll be backReviewer Rating

Fantastic setting and great welcome
Have played here a few times this year. The setting is stunning with great backdrops of the Welsh hills. Definite improvements in the course recently and it appears a lot of work going on to bring it back to top form. Greens running lovely and true and reward a good putting stroke - 9th hole is on another level from tee to green. Good laugh with the guys in the pro shop and nice hot food with a beer afterwards. Great day out just over the Welsh border. Will be back in the spring.Reviewer Rating

Bland
We visited late April, group of 7 of us. First the corse, we arrived and the greens were sanded to within an inch of their lives. We were paying £50 per head and I mentioned it in the pro shop and was told they will play unaffected. They were dreadful, pretty much unplayable. If they’d have offered a tenner off each I probably wouldn’t be writing this review but just charging us full whack when they were in this state was out of order.The actual course is well kept but generally boring. On at least half the holes you are putting as someone is teeing off 20 yards away. You never feel lost in the course, it’s layout is set in such a way you are always around someone else. It just didn’t feel like it justified the cost of playing here. We played llanymynech the day before and I think we had been spoiled with the views and variety of holes. Everything here felt bland in comparison.
Also as a side note, the club didn’t feel very welcoming at all. It felt snobby, and after playing there I’m not sure what there is to be snobby about.
Won’t be back, sorry.

What a course??some of the best views you'll find on a course. Great mix of holes. If you are a ball flight geek (like me) you'll love it here as pretty much every shot has the hills surrounding for the backdrop so you can see the balls trajectory. Greens were superb. Really great welcome and very relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Disappointed in the condition
Last played 10 years ago and was really shocked to see how poor the tee and greens are now. Tees scruffy, long grass uncut and mud areas after little rain this summer. The greens very patchy and slow and not cut close, maybe they are trying to put them right but they not there yet. It remains a stunning setting for a golf course and lovely decking area overlooking the 18th but cannot justify the ?62.50 each we were charged for a Monday green fee plus a buggy. It's about ?25 too much.Reviewer Rating
