Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee A challenging opening hole, the longest on the course often into the prevailing wind.
From The Fairway Sloping fairway left to right can lead to trouble especially off the tee.
On The Green Best approach to the elevated green is from the left side of the fairway, using if necessary the steep bank on the right of the green.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee Accuracy off the tee is important to avoid the steep slope on the right and to give the best angle into the green from the left.
From The Fairway
On The Green This misses the two bunkers front and right and uses the ground to throw the ball onto the two-tier green. Local knowledge is very important on this hole.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee A straight tee shot avoiding the out of bounds and the blocking tree on the left sets up this hole.
From The Fairway
On The Green The second shot is down hill to the green but very uneven ground some 40 yds short of the green can prove something of a lottery. A shallow saucer type green.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee A very attractive hole in every way in an idyllic setting. A precise tee shot is required to avoid the bunkers as well as the slopes and trees on both sides and bushes behind.
From The Fairway
On The Green A sloping contoured green demands a controlled approach putt. Not a green where putts are readily conceded.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A testing hole played from an elevated tee. The left to right sloping fairway carries the ball to the right hand side which is the best position from which to play to the green.
On The Green A ridge 30 yards short of the green has to be carried and a bunker awaits any shot hit slightly right.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The key to this hole is the second shot especially if the wind is against. The fairway is reduced to a very narrow plateau with a steep slope to the left and heavy rough on the bank to the right.
On The Green Once safely past these dangers there is a straightforward run uphill to the slightly domed green.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee The most demanding hole on the course especially off the back competition tee and a par 4 for only the best golfers.
From The Fairway The fairway follows the valley which curves right to left and only a long and accurate tee shot avoiding the wood tight on the left and the slope with its light rough on the right can open up the green for the second shot.
On The Green Even then a draw is often necessary to bring the ball to the green, and any ball landing short is likely to end up in the bunker front right which has the biggest appetite of any bunker on the course.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee Played from an elevated tee across a valley onto a green set into a steep right to left slope with two bunkers above the green.
From The Fairway
On The Green The ground drops away sharply in front and on the left. An accurate tee shot is required and the green is not as simple as it appears.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The new tee has made this hole a true test of skill. The player is faced with a steep slope immediately in front of the tee and so plays blind to a fairly narrow fairway with deep rough and bushes to the left and a new plantation to the right.
On The Green The second shot is played to an unseen green over a large cross bunker with other bunker to right and left.
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee A straight forward par 3. The chief requirement is to clear the cross bunkers to land and hold the ball on the green.
From The Fairway
On The Green
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee A 90 degree dogleg left with out of bounds all the way on the left.
From The Fairway The long hitters are tempted to cut the corner but the height of the trees and the long carry require a well struck shot.
On The Green There are bunkers to the front left and right of a green which has the most subtle borrows of all the greens on the course.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The large sycamore tree in the middle of the fairway which threatens the second shot is the main feature of this otherwise straightforward par 5.
On The Green However both tee and second shots need to be straight as there is out of bounds on the left and trees on the right.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee The tee shot is played over a slight slope to a reasonably wide fairway with a bunker on the right waiting for a faded drive; a long and slightly left tee shot will find a wide bunker which will result in an almost impossible shot to the green.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green itself is set at the top of a steep slope with three bunkers set in its face ready to receive an under hit or inaccurate second shot and a thick hedge behind for too bold a shot to the green.
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee An accurate shot will be rewarded by a slightly upward sloping green helping to hold the ball, but it is not easy to score par if the tee shot misses the green.
From The Fairway
On The Green The approach putt requires great care especially in certain pin positions.
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee Played across a valley from the tee and demanding a straight well hit drive to prevent the facing slope killing the tee shot and missing the two bunkers on the left
From The Fairway The second shot to the green has to carry three steep faced bunkers.
On The Green The green is not as straightforward as it might appear and requires a controlled approach putt.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A potential card-wrecking hole coming late in the round. The faded tee shot will follow the dogleg right fairway, while a hook leads to rough down the bank to the left and a difficult second shot over trees.
On The Green Approach to the green is easier from the left to hold the ball on the left sloping green.
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A long par 3 which requires a draw from the tee to counter the left to right slope of the green and its approach; otherwise the tee shot must be left of centre.
On The Green Missing the green finds trees and thickish rough and a chip onto an away sloping green; missing the green on the right finds a bunker or steep slope to the rough.
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee No chance to relax on this finishing hole. The tee shot is straightforward but a long and accurate shot is necessary to reach the green in regulation figures.
From The Fairway
On The Green The entrance to the green is flanked by deep bunkers and the ideal entry is slightly left of centre. A reasonably flat and friendly green on which to finish the round.
