In short: Good but hard!
In full: Being on trail made this interesting but the hills make it a different ball game - they do really challenge you, whereas flat road race you can keep same pace, not so much with this one. i actually beat my PB which i was very surprised about, but i am a new runner i guess... was very tired by the end of it. great parking albeit £4 for the day. good scenic course through the woods. it was hot and sticky today so flies were swarming around every runner. enjoyed it immensely as it was harder than your typical road race!

In short: Enjoyable flat road-race, recommend it to every runner
In full: Enjoyable flat road-race, good course, scenic route. Not half as many spectators as Lincoln City 10k but this is very scenic, out in the sticks, so not much spectator support until you get back to Woodhall Spa near the end. A lot of people moaning about lack of T-shirts for the finishers, that doesn't bother me. Only my second 10k event so not sure what the standards are but plastic cups at the water stations were a bit of a surprise! Difficult to drink from. Good parking, was free. Tip: get there early.
