Hole 1
302 Yards SI 11
A par 4 with water just in front of the tee this hole goes down in to a dip at about 180 leaving an uphill shot of about 120 to the green which has a bunker either side.

Hole 2
167 Yards SI 9
A par 3 with trees to go over from the right hand tee a bit of a clearer view from the left. The Green is protected by 2 bunkers at the front.

Hole 3
404 Yards SI 4
A par 4 with not much room for error of the tee there is a ditch on the right hand side and OOB on the left (It is possible to hit you drive for miles on this hole by going OOB and landing on a passing train). The green slopes away with OOB only a few yards behind it there is a left side bunker.

Hole 4
250 Yards SI 17
A par 4 that even though short it is easy to run up a high score; if you try to go for the green you could go OOB at the left side or the back. The green is impossible to hold as it slopes away protected by 2 bunkers at the front. The green has sunk since the course opened but is being built back up in the next few months.

Hole 5
506 Yards SI 7
A par 5 that is an uphill tee shot with a few trees on the right and hedges on the left plus a small pond on the left at about 250. The hole continues uphill till about 200 from the green with a scattering of trees on the right. The green has 2 left side bunkers.

Hole 6
444 Yards SI 2
A par 4 that always seems to cause me problems (only hole I’ve never pared) You need to hit at least a 250 drive to give a view of the green for your 2nd shot as the hole slops down after that. The green is like the 4th slopes away and almost impossible to hold so most of us try to pitch before it 3 bunkers 1 about 40 yards before on the left then a bunker front left & front right.

Hole 7
142 Yards SI 15
A par 3 with trees on the right rough on the left. The green has a bunker protecting the front and 2 bunkers on the left.

Hole 8
568 Yards SI 5
A par 5 that has OOB on you left side for your drive the hole goes uphill from about 100 to 300 the levels out, there is a big tree at about 300 on your left which can cause problems with your 2nd shot. A good drive can work against you if you take to much club with your 2nd shot as there is a ditch about 130 from the green. The holes levels out from 300 and the green only has 1 bunker on the right.

Hole 9
306 Yards SI 13
A par 4 that has a small dog leg to left a bit of a risk and reward hole for big drivers the are a few trees and a ditch on the left which you have to go over if going for the green from the tee and if you hit dead straight but to far you will end up in the trees on the right. The green has 2 bunkers 1 front right and the other n the left with OOB about 10 yards behind it. Another green that slopes away and is very difficult to hold.

Hole 10
356 Yards SI 8
A par 4 that has a ditch on the left and trees on the right, the fairway is narrow for the 1st 150 then opens up on the left before narrowing again for the last 75. The green has 3 bunkers 1 front left and 1 at the back and 1 at the right hand side, OOB is about 10 yards behind the green.

Hole 11
303 Yards SI 12
A par 4 that is reachable for the big hitters there is a ditch running down the left and another ditch across the fairway at about 200. The green has 2 bunkers front left and front right.

Hole 12
121 Yards SI 18
A par 3 with trees and a ditch on the left the flag is visible from the tee but not the green there is a bunker front left and if you go long you will end up rolling down to the 1st fairway.

Hole 13
446 Yards SI 1
A par 4 with an uphill drive trees on the left and OOB on the right after about 220 the fairway levels off there is still OOB on the right till about 130 from the green. The green has 3 bunkers 1 left 1 right and 1 front right.

Hole 14
134 Yards SI 16
A par 3 with no bunkers but a pond a couple of yards left of the green and OOB on the right at about 5 to 10 yards.

Hole 15
295 Yards SI 14
A par 4 that is also a bit risk and reward there is OOB to the right and some big tree jutting out into the right side of the fairway. On the left there is a row of big fir trees that make (unless you can get over everything) the line into the green narrow. The green has 2 bunkers 1 front right and 1 on the left with out OOB about 10 yards out the back.

Hole 16
376 Yards SI 6
A par 4 that require a an accurate tee shot as the 1st 100 is narrow and even though it opens up after that there are trees and a ditch on the left that you can take on if you want to go the Tiger line. The green has 1 bunker front left and a pond that is front right and goes all round the right hand side, you have OOB about 10 yards out the back.4

Hole 17
410 Yards SI 3
A par 4 that has a ditch running up the left and a scattering of trees on the right you need to hit a decent length drive on this hole if you want to make the green in 2 as there is a pond that stretches across in front of the green. The green only has 1 bunker just over the water front right.

Hole 18
440 Yards SI 10
A par 5 that is reachable in 2 there is a big tree in the middle of the fairway at about 200 which you need to be past to give you the chance to get on in 2. The fairway has scatterings of trees down both sides plus a big tree on the left about 50 before the green on the right there is a small pond that is also about 50 from the green. The green has a bunker front left and OOB about 15 yards out the back.
