Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee No being eased into your round here, with a very testing opening hole.
From The Fairway The opening tee shot up the hill requires accuracy, with out of bounds on the left and a gully on the right where the ball will certainly be lost, although this is the preferred side of the fairway to
On The Green hit for an easier second into the green. Your approach shot is also uphill and normally is a blind shot, so wait to hear the bell before trying to reach the green.

Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee Don’t be fooled into thinking this short par 3 offers some respite,
From The Fairway
On The Green the shot to the green looks easy but beware. On a blustery day, the smart golfer will take note of the prevailing wind direction as he walks off the first green, because with the second tee being surrounded by trees and sheltered from the wind it is easy to forget to make allowances.

Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee The tee shot needs to be centre to slightly right as
From The Fairway the fairway runs away to the left and into the trees, though too long and right will also block you out.
On The Green Hit a 3 wood off the tee with a gentle right-to-left shape to be in a good position for the approach. Long hitters can almost drive this green, but the shot must be just left of the right-hand trees.

Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway This hole is a dog-leg left with a bunker waiting for most shots hit to the left of the fairway.
On The Green Positioning your tee shot just right of the bunker will leave a short iron to the green but beware of the pond. If you are a long hitter and like to take a risk, you can attempt to go for the green by cutting the corner from the tee over the trees and water.

Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee Two accurate shots are required here to stand much hope of making your par.
From The Fairway A straight drive just to the right of the fairway bunker is the preferred method of attack.

Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway This hole is a dog-leg left with bunkers waiting for most shots hit to the right of the fairway.
On The Green Positioning is important: aim at the second fairway bunker with a right-to-left shape for an easy shot into the green and a chance of birdie.

Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee This short par 3 looks easy, but the trees either side of the pond catch out many.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green is protected on the left with a long bunker. Make sure you take plenty of club and play safe to the back, because anything short is in the water.

Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee The approach shot is uphill so take an extra club and don’t get caught out by the bank at the front of the green.
From The Fairway
On The Green Pitch your approach shot short of the green to avoid running through the back, where trouble awaits. The green looks flat but has some interesting borrows, so take the time to study your line.

Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Your tee shot should be to the right side of the fairway as this is the
On The Green best line into the green and it also takes the out-of-bounds on the left out of the equation. Land your approach short of the green in firm conditions as it slopes from front to back. There is also a sharp left-to-right slope that makes this arguably the trickiest green on the course.

Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee Stroke Index 1 on the card and rightly so, you need to have a good drive and a good second shot to get anywhere near the green on this toughest of par 4s.
From The Fairway
On The Green The hole is tree lined most of the way so keep up the middle before admiring the majestic specimen by the green that gives the hole its name. If the green is unreachable in two, best to lay up and attack the pin with an easy pitch.

Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee Despite its formidable yardage, this long par 4 is easily reachable in two.
From The Fairway
On The Green In fact, you might need one less club in the summer as the ball could run through the green. Drive down the left side, letting the fairway bring the ball back. Having likely been caught out by the fairway bunkers, you will be relieved to see there is no sand around the green.

Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee Those thinking this looks a relatively straightforward par 3 would be mistaken.
From The Fairway
On The Green At over 200 yards even from the yellow tees it requires a long iron hit with precision to avoid the trees and the three bunkers that guard the green on the right. Poorly-hit shots risk falling foul of the stream.

Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee Bisecting the two fairway bunkers with your drive should put you in perfect position for your second shot.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green is protected by three well-placed bunkers which do plenty of business and study the pin position before choosing the club for your approach as you do not want to be left with a long putt on the undulating green.

Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee Not the longest of holes, success on this dog-leg is all about accuracy.
From The Fairway Tee off over the fairway bunker on the right to leave a short approach to the green.
On The Green Those not so ideally positioned may have to worry about the pond around 75 yards from the green, while the putting surface itself is protected by bunkers left and right.

Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee Choose the correct club to the final short hole on the course.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green is long and it is not easy to get close, particularly on windy days. There is water and plenty of trees to punish the particularly wayward.

Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee A drive aimed at the marker post off the tee on this dog-leg to the right should put you in perfect position between the bunkers.
From The Fairway
On The Green Take plenty of club with your approach. You’ll need a good second shot to get to the green and the greenside bunkers are well-placed. The large putting surface has lots of borrow and three-putts are not uncommon.

Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee This fairway runs away to the right,
From The Fairway so the shot needs to draw to the left side, missing the left-hand fairway bunker. A fairway wood off the tee towards the marker pole should leave you up at the top of the hill from
On The Green where it’s a short iron to the green. One of the easier holes on the course and a definite birdie chance.

Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee An inviting par 5 to finish which is straight downhill off the tee and tends to play shorter than its yardage.
From The Fairway With your drive, favour the right side of the fairway as it runs away from right to left and you could find your next shot blocked out by the poplars on the left. Many approach shots go missing in the trees on the right, so avoid at all costs.
