In Volume 1 of The Confidential Guide to Golf Courses, Tom Doak published that.

“The look of this course belies its pedigree – I would have guessed it was a modern course due to the wide fairways and relatively small number of bunkers, which seemed to suggest an Augusta influence, although the greens are nothing like Augusta’s. The long 3^rd and the par-3 finishing hole were quite good.”

Parkstone received a score of 5 out of 10 from Tom Doak.
