Really useful website with reviews by people who have paid to play the courses rather than been given a "freebie" to bum the place up.
I rate it very highly

I have played it lots of times. It is quite a challenging course especially of the blacks (pro tee) we had to play in a club match against them .It is relatively long especially the back nine and it does get quite wet and boggy in places especially around 7, 8 and 9 (or it did about 4 years ago when I last played it at this time of year).

I think if you can play to your handicap you will have done well. The clubhouse is pretty friendly and the food is decent too. Beware that there is a lot of water on it (about 10 holes from memory) and the rough can be quite thick and penal but it is a good test of golf

Thanks homer, bit worried now! I'll let you know how I get on.

Hi
we played this 2 years running for a New Years' bash. One year 3 holes were closed due to rain.
Wouldn't rate it for scenic qualities - felt a bit bare on the back 9, but plenty of hazards - def not easy for high handicappers as we were. I remember greens were in good nick, but .

enjoy yourselves!
