The Nicklaus course, designed by the great Jack Nicklaus and his son Steve, unfolds beautifully in the stunning setting of Carden Park. The layout can stretch to 7,045 yards but even from forward tees, there's more than enough challenge even for the best players in the world.
With several ‘double option’ holes such as 7th and 15th which offer a choice of fairways from which to approach the green. The Nicklaus course offers a scenic yet strategic test of golf where position more than length is crucial.
A Longest Drive competition is recommended on the 4th, with the 16th ideal for Nearest the Pin. An average fourball can expect to complete the Nicklaus Course in around 4 ¾ hours.

Was not made aware we had to use Matt's off tee, Matt's off fareway, greens spiked and lots of sand on them

A couple of holes had very difficult (bordering on unfair) pin positions. That said very enjoyable golf.

Quiet at the time of year we played so a very leisurely stroll round. Greens were in very good condition.
Charles

Beautiful golf course with just the right amount of challenge. Greens were excellent for the time of year and the fairways, although wet, were not sodden/soggy meaning it wasn't impossible to hit the ball!!
Trevor

There were a few bare patches on fairways following the early-season drought, but that was the only slight issue. Greens were lovely for putting, with well-kept bunkers and superb views throughout.
