Having very recently returned to playing golf at Knotty Hill. I was given the green fees price sheet. I questioned the concession as it didn't make a lot of sense to me. Members pay £12 for 9 holes £16 for 18 holes £18 on weekends hi Still reletively inexpensive. Concessions for seniors and students are exactly the same as full member prices. So no concession in reality. I questioned it again today thinking that talking to a different staff person I could get a light bulb moment from someone. My argument being that unless you're a visitor there are o concessions. I cited fishing as an example, that as a senior I get a slightly reduced rate to fish than those who are not seniors. I said that concession means a reduced rate for which you need to prove your age. Reducing the rate by £1 is a fair concession. The answer to that was. "but we'll lose a pound". Or, as I pointed out you could lose the whole £12. The reply, "take it or leave it". There is an answer to that but you can't argue with people who don't want to...

Read moreUsed the driving range today. Good value. Most of the practice balls are OK, and reasonably priced. Two chipping greens. Undercover and open-air grass driving bays. 9 hole putting green with interesting slopes but lacking grass in areas. Played a round of golf on Tuesday last week. Good value and it has huge potential following recent work to create 4 18 hole courses in 8 loops of 9. As it matures it will be very good. Grass on greens a bit long, holes not trimmed. Bunkers pretty solid rather than sandy. Clover in the rough is hard to get out from. Friendly and helpful staff. Good basic food. Large...
