If I lived closer I would join!!!

One of the best courses I have ever played. Original designed by James Braid an outstanding 18 holes and in my opinion every hole has you thinking. It’s a tree lined fairway, parkland style of course, but the fairways are generous and the rough is friendly, so if you find yourself in the trees you deserve a little punishment. Some single tier and some double tier greens which were absolutely beautiful to putt on and different colour flags for front, middle and back. The bunkers vary in size but all very consistent in quality and quantity of sand…..it was almost a pleasure to be in one, which I was on numerous occasions. To me every hole was different offering a challenge but on every very well maintained and large tee, was a nicely painted accurate overview of the hole and good easy to see yardage posts made club selection easier.
Reasonably flat but with some undulations and dips to encounter during the round not a taxing course to walk.
The clubhouse is large and two storey with pro shop, locker rooms, toilets etc on the ground floor and upstairs is the very large bar/ restaurant area with large glass panels overlooking 2 greens and 1 tee. Also 2 good size balconies outside being well used on a sunny warm day.
Comprehensive practice facilities with putting green, chipping/pitching green, driving nets all close to the clubhouse and pro shop. Plus a 9 hole pitch and putt course and 10 bay (I didn’t count) driving range.
In an area with some well known Links courses, you should add this to your list to play if in the area, I’m definitely going back!
