There are three distinct ‘nines’ – the River, the Valley and the Lake. Lingering memories will be of demanding drives on the opening two holes of the River nine, and of two exhilarating par 3s: the ninth on the river, where the green is situated beyond a mature oak tree which guards a lake, and the second on the Lake Course, known as the Island Hole.
Negotiate these holes safely and a good score beckons.
