Having paid for the course in February '17 I can confirm that there has been no movement in course fees since last year, there are several other nice things that get thrown in to the pot as well when you are there. For all round value it was difficult to beat them. An all round positive experience.
The reason why you think that the course has got more expensive has nothing to do with Bartolini.
Weather was OK with very few days lost.
