Course Review and Comments

A real raw true links experience. If you can keep the ball in the fairway a low score is possible (as long as the wind isn't up...which is very rare). Stray off the beaten track and the gorse and heather will mean you post a big number. All aspects of your game will be tested and each hole has its on unique characteristic. just a shame there aren't 9 more holes!

Course Design Rating
Course Design Comments Stunning setting seems like the course designed itself. Love the holes out on the island, especially the par 5 fifth which dog legs back across the sea. Only a blind tee shot on the 7th lets it down from a design point of view...maybe a few bunkers would add to it too, although perhaps the penal gorse, heather and sea may be hazards enough.

Course Service Rating
Course Service Comments Service is excellent and friendly, can't change the 3 star rating now, but 4 and a half might be more accurate.
Course Facilities Rating
Course Facilities Comments No hot food available, no shop to be seen, and the putting green is poorly maintained.
