I thoroughly enjoy playing this course, yes it is alongside a rough estate but you only really notice on a couple of holes. It is a 'properly' ran golf club with a packed out pro shop and a friendly clubhouse. It is challenging course where you use the full variety of clubs in your bag with some shorter par 4's where you are punished if you sway, and a couple of longer par 4's where you just have to hit it long. I have played most courses in the area and I haven't found greens which match Seahams for condition, speed and turn combined. Would be nice if there were a couple of water holes but I suppose you can't have it all. Watch out for the 16th its a real card wrecker.
Played on February 14 on the winter course - winter tees and greens. And no wonder the course was virtually waterlogged! There cannot be any natural drainage here at all. My wife only managed three holes before retiring! The course is ok, a nice variety in length of holes, the elevation varies, but it is a bit bare of features in places and in winter can feel like a pretty unrewarding hack up and down with nice views! Cannot really comment on best holes because you do not play the proper course in winter - only play in summer!Played on the cheap on Monday so cannot complain too much!
My first impressions were not too good. You need sat-nav to find the course, it's round the back of a number of terraced streets, not helped by a wierd traffic management system Car parking was quite tight and limited. Part of the course runs alongside what sounded like a very rough housing estate, extremely loud screaming & shouting and police sirens at 10.30am. There are some truly stunningly good views of the Coastline from the highest part of the course
The course is fairly benign an boring with a number of holes going up and down alongside each other. There are a few very good holes including 17th & 18th.
The greens were very slow which was really disappointing for a costal course. I wont be rushing back.
