Are there any standout holes or unique features at Silfield Village Golf Course I should look out for?
Keep an eye out for the par-3 7th hole; it's a deceptively tricky shot over a small gully that often plays longer than it looks. We also love the finishing 18th, a dogleg par-4 that demands a precise drive to set up a good approach to the clubhouse-adjacent green. These holes really capture the course's subtle charm.
