Cons:
£4.90 per round, although for the level of maintenance it's worth it.
Some of the paths between holes are almost vertical in places (2 to 3 and the route back after hole 10).

Other Thoughts:
I opted to do the Red course so that I got to see the whole course. This was possibly a little too hard for me, however I enjoyed the challenge.
I found it odd that once through the 4th hole, the holes don't follow each other so if you were playing as a family you could find someone on the green course being on the other side of the field to you if your on the blue or red courses.
Hole 1: nice easy hole along the path. Be careful of the OB left, however the smell of wild garlic as if you do miss the path makes up for your detour.
Hole 2: another reasonably flat hole. Love the basket position
Hole 3: from the red tees you need to be a mountain goat here. I ended up throwing to roughly where the blue tee is and then approaching from there. Really tough.
Hole 4: nice hole across the Ridge, difficult approach with the cross wind today.... I went a rolling!
Hole 5: Up the hill this was a tough hole. Really like the basket position on the hump though.
Hole 6: This hole is epic from the red tee. I got confused and on my 2nd shot aimed for the 16th basket. You cannot see your basket from the 2nd shot point. It's down to the right. Don't get confused like me.
Hole 7: 3 ways to go. I went up and instantly regretted it, ending up OB and almost loosing discs.
That is a tough hole
Hole 8: Nice hole along the fence line, play over the Ridge from the red tees, nice easy approach
Hole 9: Same again. Nice hole down and up the dipper. My only par here. Very nice hole.
Hole 10: insane cross wind here. Had to resort to a roller to get anywhere. Love the crossing into the woods before the basket. Nice to see the course working around the farm and not the other way round.
Slightly concerned about the barbed wire though, children beware.
