The English architect of this course has carefully maintained the original topographical nature of the undulating terrain. Changes when necessary have been kept to a minimum to preserve the natural state of this beautiful habitat. The outward nine-holes are testing, starting with a par-4 of 381 metres which will challenge golfers of all standards. Next an even longer par-4 hole, followed by another par-4 of 385 metres. To follow the sixth and eighth holes, both par-5s, are awaiting the player with each a little under 500 metres. The back nine has two par-3 holes that are attractively designed. The par-5 on the fourteenth is particularly difficult to reach due to a tricky green awaiting the player.
