Sown with bent and fescue grasses, the course comprises two contrasting loops of nine holes.  The outward nine, set in parkland, boasts extensive lakes and water hazards, offering a challenging but thoroughly enjoyable start to the round.

The Halfway House

It's hard to start the back nine without first visiting the Halfway House for a welcome drink, a bacon sandwich or a snack, all of which can be ordered through a telephone link from the 9th tee.  Then, suitably refreshed, it's off to the stunning inward nine holes, laid out in 'links' style, with sand banks, broom and a wealth of challenges in store.  A good test of golf, where a par on the 13th feels like a birdie and 'Deception' (the 15th) really does live up to its name!

The back nine is links type with challenging par 4s and 5s with undulating fairways, bunkers and ponds.
