is old fashioned in terms of having lots of blind shots.
There are some great holes, including the par 3 3rd called
the Crows Nest and the 7th, which is called the Himalayas.
There are 2 all weather
tennis courts which you can play on. Also, there is an all
weather bowling green and a putting green located in front of the
clubhouse, which are both open to the public. Equipment for all these
can be hired from the golf course.
