The course is wide open on most holes, long, and in good nick. Unspectacular but great value and good fun if you get there on a quiet day. But that’s a BIG if.

Sadly becoming more and more crowded. Slow play is a disease here, not helped by the pro-shop assistants who don’t seem to have control over the visitors or members who won’t do the right thing. In social play – groups of 5, groups heading straight to the 10th tee and holding up the field, and individuals playing holes in random order just to avoid having anyone in front. This is not every so often – it happens all the time now.

On a bad day it’s total chaos. As a member I have noticed the steady decline in the golfing experience over the past 3 years or so, and without going into further detail is has a lot to do with a dramatic change in membership.

Worth a shot for the course itself, but pray for a quiet day…

Played course early on a sunday morning with a social club. Course is well layed out with a good variety of holes. Course condition was excellent with pure kikuyu fairways and immaculate greens. Lack of water hazards mazkes it a good course for the golfer of low to average skill. A pleasure to play and well worth a visit. Well worth a visit.

The course itself is really nice and in great condition. Unfortunately the amount of time waiting for slow players and tee off was a major problem.

It took nearly 8 hours to play 18holes and I found myself standing behind 3 or 4 other groups at each tee all day.

If your considering this course I suggest that you don't go on Fridays and start before lunch!

played here not all that long ago had some excellent fun, would have had a great score if it wasnt for that hazard on the 18 but all in all will go and play anyday

Played here this week in the comp for the first time. Not all that impressed as the greens were in bad condition - I think they must have been cored recently as they were not true at all. The layout of the course wasn't too bad although a little monotonous. Due to the course being bounded by some major roads, it was noisy and dusty as hell as trucks rumbled by very close to the tee boxes and greens.

Good aspects were the club house and the cost of the comp. However, not my cup of tea.

Good value for money course. Great fairways, some long challenging par 4's. Overall a pleasant golfing experience.

I have played this course a few times now and it appears to be in good nick all year round. Most of the fairways are quite generous but the course plays long as you don't get much run off the spongey, lush fairways. The greens are quite slick too making putting difficult to negotiate at times.

The best holes are the par 4, 5th and 14th. The 18th is a tough finishing hole with a lake that comes into play down the right hand side.

Green fees are $35 for a visitor, quite reasonable considering the condition of the course.

Overall I would rate this course at 7.5 out of 10.

I played this course about eights months ago on a sunday afternoon with a mate. The greenfeas were $30 which I didnt mind paying as this course is kept in very good nick.

This course is heavily covered in treeline. The fairways are generally wide on most par 4s and 5s. The front nine is exposed to wind on a few holes that did make it tricky.

The backnine was a real treat. The beautiful treeline fairways, fluffly fairways made playing a gem. I must say that if you are stuggling with the putter I suggest you work on it. The greens at this course are lighting quick.

In all this course is in prime condition.

Tight, tree lined course with some good par 4's. Greens small & relatively fast, but not heavily bunkered.
