Brilliant round

Lovely course, I didn’t expect the course to play so well this time of year. Not a single puddle on the course and the greens were perfect condition. Can’t wait to get back and play another round

Not muddy

Pro very friendly n shop and explained the course lay out and that we were playing off winter tees. Food & coffee good value in clubhouse which had a welcoming atmosphere.
Course played well and greens were true, they were out mowing the fairways and green keeper had a few words with us about conditions etc.
After round very little mud on trousers just a post round brush ff.
Overall fair challenge of golf in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Summer time

This is a great course to play, it's very well laid out and the condition is good although the grass is long if the ball ventures off the fairway. The tee off areas are particularly well maintenained.

A golf day to be glad you played

This course is amongst the loveliest of Dorset best countryside settings, and far from one to regret playing. In fact, the fairways and greens were in exceptional condition, especially following a season where many others had suffered greatly from the hot summer and long period of little rain

Great value for money

Great value for money. Very hilly. Recommend a buggy as it is long. Especially playing off whites like us pros.
3rd hole. No idea how that is stroke index 14. Should be at least top 5 hardest of course.
But amazing condition and happy to of played it.
Will be returning with a trolley or buggy though 👍🏻
