Course Description:
Silverwood is a relatively new golf course built in 1984 and is playable all year round, resulting from its sand based and well-irrigated greens. Water comes into play on the 314 yards 3rd and the 487 yards Par 5 10th the 14th is protected by a stream. Silverwood has the hotel located on its grounds and is ideal for mid to high handicappers to really enjoy themselves. If you ever fancied changing you sport to skiing then try the ski slopes on site, but don't do what Phil Mickelson did shortly after joining the professional ranks and break a leg!
