I played it quite a few years ago with some mates, we went there because the other course we had planned to play had a competition on and we would have had to wait about 2 hours or more to tee off. As somebody else said, it is hilly!!
Unfortunately we got stuck behind a competition here too, and after taking about 4 hours to play 12 holes we walked off. The only thing I can remember about the course was it was hilly! Did I mention the fact that it was hilly???

Played this about 5 years ago and it is extremley hilly. Went for 3 days and I have to say this was my least favourite of the 3 places we played, my favourite was Hardelot Pines and we also played Le Touquet Foret. I love this area apart from the nightlife which is a bit dire.

Off to Portugal in a month for a 5 day golf stag night !!

OK Guys, Back from my 2 days of Golf at St Omer.

Well what can I say, firstly yes it was Hilly......VERY Hilly!! but what a great course, it was in great condition, Fairways great and Greens, not fast, but grease Lightning, hard to read as well, but soon got used to them. Holes varied with some fantastic veiws, oh, did I mention some hills, well not a bad track at all, infact I was looking forward to playing it again this morning, so was not that bad.......the hills that is.

Great 2 days on a great Course in Great weather, company not bad either.

To add, I did miss my Skycaddie :)
