Great value. Challenging course.

We’ve all played some truly horrendous council courses especially in England. This isn’t one of them. It’s in great condition. Well looked after and we’ll signposted. Some oh the walks between holes would be very confusing with out the signs. The course itself isn’t long but the difficulty comes from the narrowing fairways. Tricky pins and some very undulating fast greens. (I had one 25ft putt that I aimed 10ft left of the hole and still missed it on the low side!!!) my putting is ghastly to be fair. The members I chatted to were friendly and the staff were sound. I had a great day and will return definitely. Thank you to all at the course for a great day.

Poor

Front nine closed, not told beforehand, wouldn't have bothered if I'd known.

Far too many people crammed onto the back 9, every tee had 2 groups waiting for around 15minutes.

Course was a bog and mostly unplayable, greens were in good condition however.

Staff demanded a deposit (car keys or driving license!) for a winter mat!?! Totally bizarre, most courses give them out and get them back because - why would someone steal a winter mat?

Poor overall, played 20-30 times before but won't be back for above reasons. Waste of time and money today.

Very enjoyable round

Great condition given the time of year, had a very relaxing afternoon! Greens were in excellent order though a little slow due to recent rains. Superb value for money and look forward to playing here again!

Very good for such low price

Front 9 was quite damp, fairways had a bit of length, some tee boxes weren’t great.

Looks like a lot of work has been put in on back 9. Good greens and nice layout.

Great course for the low price. Cant complain when green fees are that low.

Value for money

As the name suggests, its very 'hilly' so make sure you have decent shoes on. The greens are very good!

A brilliant course to begin developing your golf game...

For the price, through the Golf Now App, this was a brilliant course to play as a four ball. It is improving each time we play it and we are already booked in for another round of golf.

Good golf challenge

Course good condition for winter as they use winter mats for every golf shot , small mats which you have to hire and return so add another £1 to booking no big issues.

We'll be back

Course in good condition despite recent heavy rains. Some greens sanded for winter and a couple of temporary tee boxes. Good layout and not too challenging for medium to high handicaps. Some big walks between greens and next tee. Great views over County Down countryside.
