The Layout follows the OG 18 hole layout and we have added 2 New holes in to cater for the player numbers between holes 14 and 15 that will be called holes 14A and 14B. follow the "next tee" signs or "the green flags" from 14's Basket to locate 14A.What's better than 1 tight tree tunnel? 2
We have a contingency plan for the wet holes, some teepads may be altered slightly please ensure you are teeing off from the correct pad "marked by gold (long) or blue (short) flags"
