I very rarely get to play - in fact, this was my second game in about 4 years! You don’t get any good at this game by doing that ..... and so it proved from my first shot to the last (although my practice remains spot on!).
The course itself is challenging, especially if you’ve not played it before. Several shots where you don’t know what’s over the hill and even the guide on the reverse of the scoring card doesn’t help entirely. It is hilly and quite tiring but the scenery is great.
You can get a quite standoffish attitude towards non-members at some clubs, but I found this club to be friendly. I eventually played round with George and Bob, as we got held up by a fourball in front of us - very pleasant gents.
Enjoyed my round, apart from my awful golf skills.

Course in good condition, some of the greens need work and the trenches on holes 15/16 are disappointing with lots that have sunk and dip a couple of inches

The restaurant is warm, comfortable and pleasant. The welcome is fabulous and the members of staff give great service. There is a piano and on Tuesday there was a pianist but I am unsure if there is one every day. The food is delicious and there is a good choice. Smaller portions are on offer. Desserts available. Coffee is very good. The quality of food, service and venue is reflected in the price.

We go to the Olympus every week and have fish and chips and it is lovely my only "gripe" is they put margarine on the bread, on the menu it says bread and butter, I know margarine is supposed to be more healthy but I really don't like it, that is my only criticism, otherwise everything else is good

This restaurant has been around giving excellent service for over 25 years to my knowledge.
I can only say that if there was a category for Bespoke fish & chip restaurant, this is it.
You are met with the door being opened for you, your coats taken and shown to a suitable table, by staff that really do try to please.
Olympus has a varied menu and has a licence for those who wish to invibe. Food is to a good standard and served fresh. On leaving the same courtesy is always the same as your arrival,Mr Tasos Pattichis (owner) is always in attendance and has time for everyone, he has built up a restaurant to be very proud of.
Just an aside to this, if I am not mistaken coach trips from out of town made regular trips to this venue.

My family and I visited the olympus for lunch on Saturday the chips looked as though they were half cooked,the fish was nice and fresh.,
the child's meal however was disappointing,sausage and chips looked more like a cocktail sausage and a few scrappy chips,the service was wonderful from arriving and being shown to the table and through the meal,however they seemed to be understaffed and everyone was running around as though they were on a mission,this seemed to be worse when the boss himself arrived, and stood around shouting staff's names out loud telling them to do things which they had been doing anyway,and I heard him keep telling the waiters to go faster..I have worked in the catering industry for almost 30 years and never have I heard a boss speak to his staff like this man ,how do they refrain from telling him where to go that shows the professionalism of the staff he employs,and it would do him good to remember that a business is only as good as the staff., don't think I will be returning .
