Any advice from members or anyone who has played there recently, should we play/book it now or wait till nearer the end of March.:cheers:

I think either side of the winter will be a bit boggy William. I've played both in summer and winter and on a nice dry day can be a nice course with lovely views. enjoy!

PS if you have the american golf voucher thing I'm pretty sure it can be used- I played free in September (was still a bit boggy then)

Very weather dependant, can get a boggy mess quite easily

I played end March one year and it was lovely.

Had snowed the weeks preceding but we got a crisp spring day.

No guarantee for you I appreciate

A few mates of mine played it early last month, said it was very wet underfoot then and it is only likely to get worse as winter progresses.

Seemingly the place was on the cusp of cancelling their booking as the course was so wet; they took buggies off which wasn't ideal for a couple of my mates.

Its a great layout bugt its a pure midden wouldn't play it if they paid me, save your money.

The scenery speaks for itself but as others have said it is very wet despite them spending fortunes on drainage. Plus the fact it quite long makes it a bit of slog in these conditions.

The Summer after a period of dry weather is the only time I play it now
