Hole 1
Hole Name Waugh's Knowe
From The Tee A short par 4 to get underway. A local rule (for the safety of our neighbours)
From The Fairway prevents going for the green off the tee, the sensible play is a lay-up short of the fairway bunkers which will leave only a short approach.
On The Green prevents going for the green off the tee, the sensible play is a lay-up short of the fairway bunkers which will leave only a short approach.

Hole Name Garden
From The Tee A long, tough par 3 up the hill for the gents, and a short par 4 for the ladies with O-B all the way up the left hand side. A par here is more than acceptable.

From The Fairway

Hole Name Muir Wood
From The Tee A well protected par 3 with bunkers front and back, don't get too greedy, anywhere on the putting surface is good off the tee.

Hole 9
Hole Name High Park
From The Tee The front nine closes with another short par 4,
From The Fairway
On The Green the elevated green is protected by two front bunkers, and slopes back to front with a large tier. Feels like a birdie hole, but a par is never a bad thing. Watch for those teeing off on the tenth as you play your approach.

Hole 11
Hole Name Jimmy Murray
From The Tee The first of three par 3’s on the back nine, it plays long.

Hole 12
Hole Name Whitelaw
From The Tee Another lengthy hole. The tee shot must be a good one to give you a good chance of hitting the green in two and making a birdie.
From The Fairway The fairway cambers from left to right, so the best tee shots will need to flirt with the bunker down the left.

Hole 13
Hole Name The Gap
From The Tee From the elevated tee you’ll want to try and feed your tee shot down the left to get the most run and leave a shorter approach.
From The Fairway
On The Green The elevated, tiered green is a test for even the best putters.

Hole 14
Hole Name Joan Marshall
From The Tee The shortest hole on the course, but don't be lulled in to a false sense of security.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green is protected by six bunkers, and slopes relatively steeply front back to front – you don’t want a downhill putt when a two is at stake!

Hole 15
Hole Name Sharpel
From The Tee The first of two successive par 5’s, usually plays downwind,
From The Fairway

Hole 16
Hole Name The Valley
From The Tee Turning back away from the clubhouse, this par 5 usually plays into the wind and is therefore unreachable in two for most.
From The Fairway
On The Green Your short game will need to be on form to set up a birdie chance. The final 150 yards in to the green cambers heavily from left to right, so any lay up will need to be accurate.

From The Tee The final par 3 is uphill and features a well sheltered green, but watch for those swirling winds again.
