Excellent value Parkland
First time playing this course, really enjoyable. Quite busy during our round but finished well inside of 4 hours so no worries there. The course was in great condition, the overnight rain had made some spots tough to play from but overall fine. Some challenging holes mixed with some you can really attack. Great course for beginners and experienced players alike. Watch out for dog walkers!
Overall, really good value for money and we will definitely come back.
Won’t be going back unfortunately
Group of 3, got charged full price and the course was dreadful, greens were flooded fairways and rough was just sludge and my friend even stood in some dog poo on a fairway. Wont be going back unfortunately
Not impressed
Tuned up 15 mins before tee time. 4 groups waiting on the tee. A three ball was 40 mins late teeing off, because they were waiting for someone to show up. This resulted in us teeing off 30 mins late, a very slow round. Walked off after 14 holes as it was going dark. 4 hours 5 minutes to play 14 holes! Mentioned to staff on the way out. They didn't care! Won't be returning any time soon.
Bring plenty of balls
I like the layout of the course. The only issue with playing in Autumn is finding your ball. Also I do find the grass to be rather long in places.
I have played the course when it’s not Autumn and it does play better then!
Course is a bit of care and a regular trim away from being better.
Overall great value
First time playing here. No one behind us and no one ahead so relaxed pace of play.
With a bit more care and attention this course could be one of the best in merseyside. Really enjoyed it nonetheless. Will be back
Improved golf course and facilities
I was impressed with well kept course and new bar area. Massive improvement since I was last here
Golf review
Great value for money, decent course, well maintained.
Wild West Golf
Tried to play this course a couple of weeks ago but 14 people waiting on the 1st tee. I looked on this as a one off and tried to play again, big wait on the 1st tee again, when I tried to explain to a 3 ball that my tee time was next an aggressive guy said he was a member and members take preference, I asked what his tee time actually was and he said members don't need a tee time that can play when they want,
When I tried to explain to him that everyone has a tee time or the pro shop would not be able to have any control he again stayed this is not the case st Bowring Park, I then ignored his latent aggression to declare that every golf course has defined tee times, later his playing partner admitted their tee time was 10 minutes after me. Other than this pathetic member people playing with no shirts on. 3 players playing from one bag a 5 balls all was good, not.
Amazing course
Fantastic municipal golf course. Fantastic prices and course conditions. Some amazing holes with great scenery. Well worth a visit for a round and a post round pint at the coach house on site
Value for money
Course in good order, tees need moving/looking at. Greens fast, fairways cut nicely. More signs needed. Enjoyed the round. Will go back at some point.
Course in great condition
Course is in lovely condition at the minute. Only thing that let it down was the speed of play. Waiting at every tee for about 5 or 10 minutes. Stuck behind a five ball that wouldn't let others through. Apart from that one let down the course was great. Couldn't also definitely do with some rakes in the bunkers. Think we saw two rakes on all 18 holes.
Nice course to play after a short break
Nice little course. It’s slightly shorter than majority I’ve played at. Is idle if you want to get a quick round in or not played in a while and coming back from a break or even first round as a new player. Nothing to dangerous, bunkers arnt to hard and only 1 or 2 water hazards what I remember. I didn’t loose many balls as the course is well maintained, roughs are at worst only moderate. Greens arnt great but fair. Well worth playing and paying for in my experience 👍
Great Progress
The course is improving well. The results of the recent work on the bunkers is plain to see but more work still needed. The value for money at this course is excellent.
Wigan golfers
Not a bad course which I’d play again friendly staff,greens not great but not too bad for municipal course good layout 👍🏻
Cracking course
Decent course well maintained. Good features, course playing well even after heavy rain.
Very pleasant parkland course
Really enjoyed a twilight round here. The greens had been treated so were a bit slower than normal I imagine. Still very true though and consistent.
Some well placed bunkers and trees make the challenge more enjoyable. Would recommend
