Tough but beautiful. This course is fantastic. Its hard to place this gem as it is neither links or parkland. One thing for sure though, it is a must play if you are in the area. Deep rough and bunkers together with quick undulating greens make this a great test. If you're off line from the tee, chances are you wont see your ball again. Keep it on the short stuff and the course is very fair and will reward good shots. Front 9 has a wooded feel , a bit like the dutchess at woburn in places. Back 9 is a lot more links style. Brilliant fun and a fantastic day out. Course record of 67 seems achievable when you look at the course. Trust me it really isn't !

Wow!!How this course can not be on the Open Rota I do not know. This course has it all. A beautiful links, with beautiful fairways and greens and a touch of forest as well.

I have played Birkdale and this course is DEFINATELY a match for it!!

What a hidden treat! This is a golf course that is as much fun as any in the UK. It has some characteristics of a links course, yet several hills are in parkland hills. On back 9, you get a fabulous view of the ocean. Played there on a Saturday night, right after attending the Open at Lytham. My wife (found out after we were done that women are not allowed on this course...they have a separate one for females) and I played on it and never saw another golfer. Great creaky old clubhouse. Play it!
