Not really a true links as Trees and gorse are the order of the day here, though the turf feels links like.
very tight course and loads of groups when we played it also watch out as several holes cross,
Unfortunately the fairways were in poor condition and appeared to be pretty well overused.
still a pleasant track and good value
The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list.

We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
