Think you probably get a better deal staying there overnight. We paid £140 each for the two rounds and shared buggy. Can remember when it only cost us £80!! Still a good treat though. You will have a great time, it's two great courses and both in super condition.

| Top effort with the golf Zico. I'm doing a "Sunday Driver," at East Sussex in late September. Sunday afternoon golf, dinner bed, breakfast, more golf Monday morning. One round on each course. |

Re: Daily Quiz anyone?
Had a fabulous day thanks Westside. Hence the late questions this morning as I was knackered! Played at East Sussex National. Two of us always do one all dayer there a year, both courses with buggy. Not cheap but it's a great day out. Shot 20 over on East and 17 over on West so very happy with that,
