Course Overview
Designed by leading golf architect David Hemstock and featuring more than 18,000 newly-planted trees and several lakes, the course will test golfers of all abilities. The par 72 18-hole course is nearly 7,000 yards from the championship tees but offers tee positions for juniors as well as ladies and gentlemen.
The course features USGA-specification greens with Creeping Bent putting surfaces and many interesting contours and level changes. There is fairway irrigation capacity within the computer-controlled irrigation system. There are several lakes on the course and existing woodland areas are supplemented by more than 18,000 newly-planted trees. Bunkers are smoothly contoured and blend harmoniously into the overall design, creating a challenge for every standard of golfer.
Whilst there are immature aspects such as new trees (thus the course is quite exposed), the design of the course - with its undulations, challenging water holes, white soft sand bunkering and thought provoking decisions off every tee this is a budding championship course.
