Just a really nice course

This is the third time I’ve played the Burnley course, it was a hot day but the greens and fairways were immaculate, a lot of blind holes but not an issue once you’ve played a couple of times. Beautiful scenery some picture perfect holes - no photos I’m afraid - I always turn my phone off on the course, don’t like to be bothered when I’m having a nice time 😊

Walked

Not Made aware of fairway mats before booking.

Wasn't made aware that fairway mats had to be used before booking.

Winter tee bed mats also in use some holes playing over a 100yard less.

i understand its winter and the course needs to be protected but players should be made aware before booking especially about the fairway mats. Luckily we got a hot deal on golf now for £19 pp but other tee times were still full price (£25) which in my opinion isnt a fair price playing from fairway mats and winter tee beds.

Nice course and reasonably priced

First time playing Burnley GC and I was greeted by a friendly welcome from the club pro, i played just after some heavy rain and whilst it was damp under foot the course and drained very well.

The Greens were in excellent condition, it was definitely more hilly than I was expecting and the only minor downside was this menat there were a lot of blind tee shots so you had to trust your marker post off the tee.

Overall an enjoyable round and I'd definitely recommend playing here

A challenging course

First nine a bit of an Everest assault, back nine less so. Challenging throughout as built on the side of a hill. Some nice par 3's , plenty of water and well guarded greens. Several blind holes, one had marker post for drive, and a second marker post for second shot. We lost quite a few balls. Greens were superb.

You need to be fit for this course
