Really interesting layout. Lots of doglegs and elevation changes. Some holes (e.g. the 9th) very difficult with no local knowledge. Greens in excellent condition. Tight course - needs a straight driver. Lots of trees. Par 5's mostly quite short. Nice club house. Definitely worth a visit!

Booked dinner here and couldn't be happier. Chef Ashley and his team were so accommodating to my young son (who has good allergies) and his meal. I ordered the steak and it was soft and cooked just the way I liked it. We also had the ravioli and that was so tasty. Could not recommend Eastwood bistro enough.
