Hole 1

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway A straight forward Par-4, although the prevailing wind from behind your left shoulder can test your nerves, as Out-of-Bounds runs down the right hand side of the hole. The fairway is broken by a small ridge around the 250 yards from the men’s tee. From the ridge onwards, the hole rises slightly. The green runs back to front with an angular Mackenzie running from the left hand bunker across to the

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee The 2nd is the first of three Par-3s and is an early test for the average golfer. There is trouble down the right hand side, as heavy rough and trees guard the railway line and Out-of-Bounds. The prevailing wind off your left shoulder or into your face can push your tee shot into a dip to the right of the green, where a well-played recovery will find the narrow green which runs from back to front

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway This long Par-4 plays directly into the prevailing wind with Out-of-Bounds to the right of the fairway and an open water hazard and a well-placed fairway bunker on the left can easily snare a pulled Tee shot giving all abilities food for thought. Beyond the bunker, maturing trees protect the left hand side of the hole and a further bunker short of the green can catch the approach shot. Greenside b

Hole 4

Hole Name

From The Tee As with all the holes on the outward nine, the Out-of-Bounds is on the right for the full length of the hole, and the prevailing wind is in your face. Although there are no bunkers on this hole, there is an open water hazard on the left at around 200 yards from the tee. The narrowing approach to the green, a depression immediately before the green, and hazards to left and lateral hazards to the ri

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway An elevated tee gives a clear view of the fairway and the water hazards. A large open water hazard on the left of the fairway is a feature of this hole and with a second further towards the green on the right gives the feeling of a narrow approach to this small well-guarded green. Bunkers to left and right will catch any over ambitious shots which stray wide of the green, which again angles back

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee This is the second of the Par-3s, and from an elevated tee is a match for anyone’s nerves. Out-of-Bounds which runs down the right hand side of the hole and alongside the green certainly helps focus the mind, especially with the prevailing wind pushing the Tee Shot towards the greenside bunker and the OOB. A second bunker awaits for the Tee shot straying to the right, whilst a pull to left could

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee The Par-4 7th (Par-5 for the ladies) is played as a dogleg to the right, making the green hidden from the tee. The hole provides a good test of resolve. The brook crossing in front of the green is 85 yards from the putting surface, and does pose the question of laying up for the shorter hitters, with a tough shot required to reach the well-guarded green. The green surface has many subtle contours

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee A good Par-4, with the test here being the narrow figure of eight elevated green and plenty of contour around the green to catch the pushed or pulled approach. The drive is under pressure, with Out-of-Bounds until way past the 9th tee, with the canal drawing any sliced second shot. This is probably the best birdie opportunity on the front nine, but can easily turn into a double bogey if you finis

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway This hole is a Par-5 for the men and Par-4 for ladies. The hole usually plays downwind. Although not long, the men’s drive over the corner of the adjacent canal and Out-of-Bounds, tend to tense up your nerves. With quite a long carry to the fairway, which has a wide feel to it, clever mowing here can grab the ball into the semi-rough. The best medicine is then to get the ball back into play and

Hole 10

Hole Name

From The Tee The 10th hole begins the back nine of the course, and as such is the second hardest Par-4 for the men. Requiring a well struck tee shot to bring the distant green in range for your second shot, the fairway cambers away towards the 9th, posing the possibility of awkward lies for your second shot. Too far right with your tee shot, and you’ll risk finding a watery resting place with the largest of

Hole 11

Hole Name

From The Tee The last of our Par-3s again plays directly into the prevailing wind and is well protected with three deep bunkers. A pulled tee shot will mean a difficult chip back to the putting surface with still a hard test of your putting skills to follow. The green angles quite steeply from front to back. Too firm a putt from the back of the green can find you running off the left hand front area and down

Hole Name

From The Tee Playing from elevated tees and driving over the brook to an elevated green can leave a second shot played off a hanging lie. Good bunkers left and right protect the narrow approach and the green can easily bite with an initial back to front slope, which can send the under hit shot back off the putting surface.

Hole 13

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway Beware of the pit to left when playing from this elevated tee. The fairway is divided by the brook, and whilst shorter hitters prefer to lay up short of the brook, big hitters can go for the green (wind permitting). Two fairway bunkers straddle the entrance to the green, and either of these will catch even the slightest pushed or pulled shot. The putting surface slopes heavily front to back and

Hole 14

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway This hole offers plenty of challenges, with a pit crossing the fairway making only the biggest of hitters considering going for the long carry. The undulating fairway can easily affect your stance and a large bunker tucked in the right hand rough can trap the wayward “safe” iron. The tall poplar trees, which provide the backdrop to this downwind hole, are a good target line for your approach sho

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway This is the second Par-5 for the men (Par-4 for ladies), which again plays into the prevailing wind. Off the men’s tee, with a narrow entrance to the fairway beckoning, the open water hazard to the right lurks to trap the under hit tee shot. Once onto the fairway, it requires either a medium lay-up or very well struck second shot to clear the open water hazard protecting the front of the green.

From The Fairway Driving directly into the prevailing wind, with a rough mound and a fairway bunker on the right to catch the short tee shot, a further bunker some 55 yards short of the green makes this again a tough hole, demanding accurate club selection. Beware, also, the mature trees down the left hand side - if trapped here, it will require some skill keep a decent score. Also, the right hand, greenside bun
