This outstanding parkland facility in a stunning setting takes full advantage of the natural beauty of the 1500-acre estate, dominated by magnificent trees and traversed by the River Nore.

There is just a hint of Augusta about the place. Water comes into play on six holes and there are 80 strategically-placed bunkers and marvellous sand-based greens.
