Pleasantly surprised
Course in good condition Despite days of rain! A few waterlogged bunkers made for funny moments but on the whole a great course for a decent price! Decent club house too!
Very slow round(free round offered)
We ended up behind the ladies medal and after a complaint we where given a free round.
The course is good value for money and the staff where great!
Just make sure you don’t go out early Wednesday before the ladies medal.

Saturday golf
£20 what a course, 2nd time here will b back, lots of doglegs under 350 yards, well done to the ground staff
Northop first time
Some tees poor, Had a downpour, which I know is in the lap of the gods, some greens didn’t manage well, (waterlogged).Got stuck behind some ladies in comp, which I can handle, but 35 mins to play 2 holes ? . Would like to play again on a better day.
Course Open
Golf extremely slow, got to the first green to find the bunker to the left was under water and a large area of the green had a puddle over it. Looking down to the second green there was also a large puddle to the right.
The rain was continuing therefore I decided that the course wasn’t playable. After talk to the pro it would seem that the course is only unplayable if the practice green is flooded, as the gives the best indication for the whole course.
To his credit he did offer a credit note, but the likely hood of us returning within the next 12 months would be unlikely a therefore a gesture that had no merit, due it being unlike we’d play the same course twice within the year. A complete waste of money and time, I wonder if this was about making green fee rather than ensure people wanted to play the course again?
All good
Northop GC great, good condition greens, fairways excellent.
The only issue we had is that ‘Golf now’ sold our tee time to another person. So instead of a friendly two ball we had a random stranger playing with us. Not ideal in the present covid world.
Poor condition
Over the last 5 or so years I have played Northop about a dozen times.
And in general it has been in good condition, but today it was in really poor condition, played at 8am yet about 40 divots in every bunker like it hadn’t been raked since mid yesterday. The fringes around the green was not in any kind of decent condition, and the fairways were much longer than normal. And after saying all of this I wouldn’t mind but it was £31 a round which is as or more expensive then all the course in the area that are in much better shape.
Shocking scenes
Appauling golf course more like a dog walking/running facility as there seemed to be a fair few who showed no consideration when taking a shot. Very slow play inwhich could of been caused by the poor layout out of the direction of tee boxe's it was difficult to find next tee off, it was like a treasure hunt at time's. Greens where shocking with a certain amount being covered in black moss and also extremely slow which the bloke in the pro shop refused to agree and seems to think they are PGA standard , I'm pretty sure there are abandoned bowling greens with better conditions.
Please avoid this course at all costs there are much better courses about in the area for what they are charging aka Mold and buckley/padeswood both stunning course's for the price and sometimes cheaper than northop
Poor greens
Played at a sgood pace and more and more people appeared from know where , and people was always in front and waiting to tee from behind, poorly spaced tee times
Great course
Bunkers were disappointing, although this is the same everywhere due to the lack of rakes allowed.
Northop
Despite heavy rain in the morning,the course was still open
Once rain finished,the sun shone and the course revealed it's parkland beauty.
Impressed
Played here a few times over the last couple of years. Have noticed the amount of work the green keepers have done during the lockdown period. Really impressed with the course conditions.
I played Northop yesterday and there must have been a miracle overnight as the course was in great contrition. The greens were rolling very true and fast. The pace of play was 3 hours and 20 minutes for a 4 ball at the end of a very busy competition. Not sure what course this person plays at but it must be in fantastic condition if he thought Northop was poor. I would recommend Northop for a game of golf with great staff and friendly members. Please try it out for yourself.
Not sure where this review has come from or which of the Open rota courses this person usually plays at, but Northop Golf Club is fantastic at present. Played Saturday 26th June and greens were lovely, rolling true and as fast as I would expect for my £18 green fee !! No, they are not 12 on the stimp meter but I suspect Mr "Once A Week" couldn't handle them if they were ! Definitely worth a visit for a friendly welcome, stunning scenery and an enjoyable game of golf at a cracking price. Ps There is a footpath on the 12th hole, so enjoy the view and let those with a dog pass on by and enjoy their day too.
