The Woods offers a parkland experience that emphasises playability without sacrificing strategic interest. The routing is thoughtful, using natural undulations, water features, and tree-lined corridors to shape holes. While the landing areas are generally forgiving, approach shots require accuracy, as greens are well protected by subtle runoffs and bunkers positioned to penalise shots that are even slightly off target. The conditioning is consistently strong with well-maintained fairways. Greens are smooth with a medium-fast speed that rewards confident putting strokes. While it may not possess the drama of a coastal venue, its strength lies in its balance of walkability and quality of presentation.
