Don't be put off the fact that this is a shortish nine hole course. The second nine plays from different tee boxes which does make a difference in a couple of holes. You will be allocated two tee times by the pro,(front nine and back nine). Always worth taking the phone number for the bar so you can ring when teeing off the ninth and have a pint waiting before your back nine on a hot day. A new green should be in play by the end of the summer. Just a flick with a wedge over the water but beware the undulations in the green. House manager Ben and his staff were exceptionally helpful and the quality of the food is always high. Go on...make the effort and visit

It's such a beautiful place and by far the best 9 hole golf course I've ever played. Friendly staff foxes birds River Woods all in 9 holes fantastic.

Extremely helpful professional lovely club house and Excellent golf course,will definitely visit again.

Very picturesque 9 hole golf course. Immaculately maintained with two very different tee positions on each nine. Food and service excellent in a beautiful location. Well worth a visit.

Visited a couple of weeks ago and you wouldn't think it was January. Fairways were excellent, greens were decent and the welcome from Richard in the pro shop was very warm. Only a 9 hole track but this shouldn't be a surprise and it's nice enough to go round twice. Whenever I've played here, this time included, the members approach visitors with suspicion and I've been confronted quite abruptly on all occasions about my right to be there. And yes, I'd paid the green fees.
