Sweetwoods is a parkland course.
When you arrive, the new clubhouse shows this club has invested a lot.
Good pro shop with a large amount of goods to purchase. It also has a club fitting area.
Good practice range and putting area's.
Our green fee was £42 which included full English and 18 holes. Excellent breakfast - over looking the 18th hole - it was like being in the South of France!
Course:
Its a thinking golfers course. Tight fairways, deep bunkers, fast greens.
Loads of variety with dogleg holes, holes over water, ditches, driverable par 4 etc etc.
This course could easily have 5 signature holes. I could describe loads of excellent holes but will limit to 2. The 17th over water, up the hill to a two teared green is great. The 18th, the drive has to be pinpoint accurate due to tree in middle of sloping tree lined fairway at 220yds, sloping fairway left to right so anything right is in deep tree lined rough.
Well worth playing.
