The course itself is flat and easy to walk, it is protected by strategically placed bunkers both on the fairways and around the greens, and in addition and in common with many other Championship links courses, it is a true test of golf when the wind blows. It is advisable, to contact the club in advance of your visit to avoid disappointment and ensure the course is available for play.
