I loved the golf course, and it was in superb shape, especially the greens. Harry Colt designed the original layout in 1920, two years after he teamed with George Crump to design Pine Valley. The weather was perfect (70 degrees and sunny) with a light breeze, which was a welcome feeling after swinging in the howling winds at North Berwick last week.
Played my game. Carded an 86. Then sat in the bar overlooking the course, next to an OLD rock, for a BLT, some cheesy chips, and a local IPA before zipping back by tube to our temporary Air BnB. The whole trip cost around 50 pounds.

“Millions of people were charmed by the homespun golf advice dispensed in Harvey Penick’s Little Red Book, a sports classic that became the best-selling sports book of all time. Yet, beyond the Texas golf courses where Penick happily toiled for the better part of eight decades, few people knew the self-made golf pro who coaxed the best out of countless greats — Tom Kite, Ben Crenshaw, Betsy Rawls, Mickey Wright — all champions who considered Penick their coach and lifelong friend.” – Kevin Robbins, author of Harvey Penick: The Life and Wisdom of the Man Who Wrote the Book on Golf.
