Played there once but a long time ago. Was best described as "ok". Had a lot of irregular and inexperienced golfers if I recall. Nothing especially wrong but I'd not rush back.
Fair enough. Only costing me £10 so can't really complain whatever happens.

My experience of it was a couple of years ago, but it was pretty poor. Very cheap though if I recall correctly.
I think they've just started doing foot golf too.

You wont need more than a hybrid to tee off, its incredibly short and a massive confidence boosting course. It's in half decent nick and for £10 you wont be disappointed.
Recently played there with a mate who'd never broken 100 before..... he shot 89.
Enjoy!

how did you get on papas? I'm due to have a round there on sunday.
Hit 89. Which for me was good. Of course it was only par 70. But still nice to break 90.
Am am going back Thursday and hope to improve as certainly improved on back 9 once driver behaved. 48/41.
Back 9 is shorter and I'll be leaving myself full shots to greens unless attempting to drive close enough for chips as half shots were bouncing through as greens and fairways very very firm. Recent rain may help.
Couple of tricky par 3's one dropping from serious height (good two club swing) and one protected by a lot of bunkers. Apparently safe shot is to go left and use contours to work towards green.
Was actually pretty impressed. Certainly wasn't as bleak as I'd first feared.
Howd ya find it matey?

course itself was in ok condition... apart from about 29,000 pitch marks not repaired on each green. Also they were sending off 4 balls at 7 minute intervals.... We waited on EVERY SINGLE SHOT.
Played ok, shot an 84. But was having to adjust my club choices just to try and keep playing without hanging around.
would like to go back again when it's quiet.
Yeah I thought 7 minute gaps were ambitious. Fortunately went at quieter times. I didn't see greens in too bad nick. Must have lower expectations lol.
84 of a 20 handicap is good. All abiut the driving I find as it's so short.
