| A shapely, well cared for parkland course. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The first hole is a 400 yard par 4, straight and flat with a wide
fairway. Keep right off the tee as the green is tucked left with
a bunker right. Next is a fairly short par 4 at 314 yards. A large fairway bunker left centre guards the entrance to the green. Lay up from the tee or come in from the right. The 4th is a 180 yard par 3, uphill to a well contoured green sloping back to front. The ground falls away to the right of the green. Hole 5 is a good challenge, 387 yard par 4, the fairway runs downhill and slopes right to left. There are large conifers on the high ground to the right and OB on the left. As you approach the green there is a ditch across the fairway and bunkers left and right. You cross a most attractive bridge to reach the 6th tee, a really good looking and challenging hole, illustrated above. The seventh is a 343 yard par 4, from a well elevated tee you are firing downhill to a narrow fairway protected on the left by large trees and on the right by OB. The 404 yard par 4 eighth has you teeing across a huge hedge and a road about a hundred yards out. The fairway runs uphill, falling slightly left to right and turning right to left back toward the clubhouse. An unusual double green shared with the 18th with a bunker front right. Hole nine is a very short par 4 at 265 yards. The fairway is uphill and falling right to left. The green is long and narrow sloping back to front. Twelve is the first par 5, 506 yards uphill over another large hedge, then down hill again. The fairway is cut across by a massive bunker. Ring the bell on the way down. The fifteenth is an interesting par 3, only 147 yards but very steeply uphill, so the tee shot is totally blind. Short leaves you in rough grass on a steep slope or in a mean bunker. Anything long is also in trouble as there is no room at all behind the green, just a bit of rough then trees. Seventeen is another quite short par 4 at 281 yards. The fairway slopes left to right to a two-tier green with a bunker right. Finishing with a long par 4, 447 yards slight dogleg left to right back to the shared 8th green. OB all along the right and a green-side bunker left. A decent club house and a good halfway house, friendly staff and a nice putting green. |
