Course looks beautiful with plenty of water hazards, well kept traps, very nice facilities, and professional staff. However play was very busy since they close early with no night golf on Mondays, therefore our round with 4 players took almost 6 hours.

I was punished with distances - ball hits the green and zips to the back or off the green, because the greens don't bite.
The club offers a lunch voucher. Lunch is basic, but it is ok.
Overall, it was a...
