The course is built on land known locally as the “Pinnacle”, originally designed by Old Tom Morris himself, custodian of the Old course, St Andrews and Open Champion in 1861,62,64 and 1867. It was later made into an 18 hole layout by Ted Ray from Ganton in 1906 and further alterations were overseen by Peter Alliss and Dave Thomas in 1972.

This offers a true and fair test of your golfing ability, testing your length, accuracy, touch and putting over the part parkland and part moorland course. With stunning views, quiet and peaceful setting the course offers stimulation for body and soul.

This hole features in the top 100 driving holes in the UK.

Its a dog leg left, so the more you take on the trees the nearer to the green.

For the really big hitters the green (340 yds) is in reach but you have to take on the out of bounds that runs down the left hand side, avoid the pond and the bunker on either side of the green.
