On arrival: nice sizable car park. Small putting area. Changing area and prp are functional but coukld do with modernising. The golf course in one of contrasts. Apart from the opening hole, the front nine is quite tedious...(largely flat parkland where the holes are laid out side by side) with some silly holes eg. A par 4 where you are not allowed to drive. However, the back 9 is totally different: the holes are interesting, there is undulation, fairways that become more interesting and the final 4 holes are excellently laid out and visually memorable. At £18 pounds it was ok, however, the greens were far too slow on the day we played. (they looked like they could be good but they were really slow on the day)

Conclusion: if you manage to stay awake on the front nine, then you will love the back nine... Suggestion: ask the pro if you can play the back nine twice and avoid the fron nine all together!
