Definitely a course of two halves its a hugely enjoyable course to play. The front nine is parkland winding through mature trees and was in absolutely immaculate condition. Fairway definition still intact. The back nine then opens out and weaves through bracken as a heathland feel. This is visually the highlight of the course. Course itself is fun to play and very open off the tee. Could take driver pretty much everywhere apart from a couple of dogleg holes. Good green set ups and greens super true for the time of year and the fairways were in superb condition. The back nine is set within a Deer park with deer roaming throughout which adds to the special feel the back nine has and the 200+ yard par 3 18th hitting over a lake from an elevated tee to a green in front of the pro shop and clubhouse is a fun way to finish. As it’s a hotel and country club the facilities were excellent and the pro shop very friendly. Add the second course and this is a good away weekend golfing destination and I’m sure you’d enjoy the course
