Weather (if applicable):

 

Overall playability rating:

 9

Playability:

 

Design:

 9 – It looks good, could be a bit more space between holes

Difficulty Level:

10 – A very tough course.  The most difficult I've played in the UK.  I used the tough variant though.

Skill Factor:

10 – Skill is required to get an Ace or even get passed the first obstacle.  Having said that some obstacles are adjustable to make it easier for the general public.

Maintenance:

10 - Brand spanking new

Sustainability:

 9 – I will definitely play it again. It’s a real challenge.

Other factors:

 

Appearance:

 9 – Nothing else like it in the UK.

Environment:

 8 – It was very quiet as it has only been open for a couple of weeks. The local lads seemed to enjoy it.

Equipment:

 9 – Plastic-headed putters and course balls. Pencil and scorecard are also provided.  Putters are to be replaced, the score would then be 10.

Originality:

 It’s got holes that I haven’t played or seen elsewhere ever!!

Venue Facilities:

 Free parking, toilets, coffee/tea and a snack.

Vicinity Facilities:

 Tesco Express next door.

Value for money:

 10

Reviewer comments:
