Beautiful course at a beautiful time of year. Only drawback is that the entry to the village was at a back entrance and quite the walk from the station and the Victoria gate that most people are familiar with - though it's understandable that this is done to not get in the way of staff prepping the front of the gardens for the day. Just be sure to leave 15 mins to walk there from the station.
