Yes its very close to golf course. If coming from colchester on A12 turn off at junction 31 and follow B1070 through Holton next village is Raydon keep going through village and Wades lane is on left at top of hill. Look out for small orange flags to trial.

Have you thought about an older bike? Yamaha TY175's seem to be a benchmark. See mine here, bought for £675 (and, unfortunatley, a lot more spent since. But goo useable ones are less than £1,000 on eBay regularly. Link to my site.

Have you tried balance practice on your supermoto? This is what I am interested in doing with mine, I feel like trials type practice will improve my overall handling of other bikes at low speeds. My street bike is definitely too heavy!
