Comments: Unbelievable location... Destined to be a classic...You feel on the edge of the world... In places you simply hit the ball out to sea. I've just played the best course in the world... Gobsmacked  Course shut half the year and on some days is simply unplayable ... The most amazing experience... A little haphazard but no complaints about the scenery.
