I wouldn't play it every week, but there are some great holes on the course. The 4th is a cracking hole.

I wouldn’t say Seaford heads last 6 are particularly quirky, just the 18th and the stupidly steep par 3 the rest are fairly normal holes with beautiful views
I know but I’ve been fraggered once already this week and don’t fancy another one

So you didn’t enjoy it but still scored it 8.5 out of 10 ?

Never thought of St Nick's as quirky, Bogside is just - well let's just say not my cup of tea. Old Prestwick, the quirky holes are the decent ones.

I think The Addington is definitely quirky.
You have to hit it in exactly the right places on a couple of holes. If you are fractionally off line you have no shot.
And a par 5 having to hit 6 or 7 iron from the tee is defo quirky ?
I really enjoyed the course and would happily return but I wouldn’t be a member there

It was an opinion but if you looked it was based on a number of aspects and while the layout wasn't great in places, the quality of the greens more than balanced the books. As always great playing with other GM forum members and definitely worth doing but just my thoughts. The quirky holes were the only negative

The Old Course? Definitely quirky in my opinion! Brilliant though.

If you are in the area Meyrick Park is another quirky course worth playing.

Bamburgh, it's not just quirky, it's mental in places.

That course was straight up weird. And we played in a hoolie. Fun times

Odd review. You give scores by category of 8/10, and even 7.5, but then overall mark of 8.5? Surprised you rate the facilities so highly when there is no range, short game area etc, and the clubhouse is pretty basic. Tend to agree with your assessment of the layout.
Good to hear the greens were top notch. They were poor when I played the course last year.

Yelverton GC in Devon.
A Herbert Fowler course running though old mine workings up on Dartmoor
Enjoyably quirky without getting silly.
Well worth a trip if you’re in the area.

Also kapalua and royal west Norfolk quirky in a fun and special way.
Berkhamsted has no bunkers and public roads running through two holes.
Pinner hill has some holes that are more suited to crazy golf.

Aberdour GC , you can easily catch the 4th when playing the 1st , 2nd ,3rd holes [ plus a few more ], but not when playing the 4th hole
