Not bad for a small 9 hole course, but overpriced for the condition
this is a short 9 hole course tucked away in the corner of the complex. very narrow holes and if you spray the ball it will be gone (im 3hcp and lost a few with fairly straight tee shots). good for a hack around but i dont see people paying 15-17 GBP to play 9 holes here? we basically had to play gimme circles on the greens as they arent in the best shape. i understand they have a proper 18 hole course, which is great, but this 9 hole either needs work, or needs to be cheaper.
Awful greens
Read the reviews and said it’s a great 9 hole course. First impression was good, until we got into the green at the first hole and it was I. Bad state, lumps in the green so u couldn’t line up your put properly. Then moved onto the second and it was even worse absolutely awful Green pointless trying to putt. It put a damper on the round to be honest and was def not £21 for a round of 9 holes. Spoke to someone after we finished and said how disappointed we were and are the greens always in that state, his response was no those greens are usually better then the 18 hole course and are usually at a PGA standard. I suggested he go look at them as they are in a very bad state. For the price, state of greens and also rubbish just sitting around won’t be goi by n back there
Valley Course - worth a go…
For a 9 hole at a resort type hotel and at this price point you have to have pretty realistic expectations…. Staff are friendly once you find tbe pro shop is has the basics you need. Driving range is ‘OK’, could do with a tidy up. Played the 9 hole Valley course as pushed for time. Has some really nice holes, 1st, 7th and 9th in particular, lots of slope change too. Greens are in generally good condition with a couple of exceptions. Tee boxes are uneven, and often bare… fairways are firm and bouncy and in reasonable shape. One or two bunkers could do with a tidy up. On the whole that’s the feeing about the course - could do with a tidy up… especially the second where the canopy is so overgrown it’s almost impossible to hit a tee shot without finding the trees!! It’s a decent test at this price, unfortunately just very busy and slow at points. Worth playing if you’re in the area and want to get 9 holes in somewhere without breaking the bank.
Great value course
Great 9 hole course that is not easy. Lots of trees and tight tee shots. Was in great condition yesterday (June) although does get very deep and muddy in the winter.
Good value for money and good practice. The greens were very good and quite fast
Good for time of year
Course was in fair nick considering the weather, greens were great. The tee boxes however are so uneven so it’s hard to find a good place to tee off from
A Lovely 9 hole course.
Was a little bit unsure about playing here due to some of the previous reviews, but we thoroughly enjoyed playing this course. It's a really lovely, quiet setting with some tricky holes to play. The course is generally in a very good condition, the tee's are quite poor (not level in places and well churned up from winter play), however the greens and fairways were in very good condition for the time of year.
Wet conditions but poor communication
I had to call up on the morning to check if the course we had booked was open, which it wasn’t. I was informed we could play another course on site that had 6 holes open, so we opted for that. Wasnt made aware these were all temporary greens which made putting impossible.
Happy
First time playing 9 holes here very happy with the way course is set but would of liked better direction between green and next tee was unhappy with golf now has I was overcharged by them for this has they booked on main 18 hole course wich is £2 per person dearer for 9 holes than the actual 9 jole course will definitely play here again but will book with course next tome
It's a pity
First started playing this course about 30years ago, along with the Main Course. Unfortunately those days were it's its prime & it's slowly gone downhill since then. Greens are ok but tees are in extremely bad condition, worth the price but could be so much better with a bit of TLC
